What is Google+?

Today is my 1st day to explore Google+ so I will also write about my experience here in my blog about it. Since facebook is doing mindset to its user to keep hold on you for the next 20 years updating and changing styles just to keep you hooked on the site, I would say maybe they have felt the treat of Google+ project.

Google+ project that's what giant Google called on their new social site that set to rival facebook. You don't need to be a tech or a master on the web to use facebook site, even children can use it easily.

Since I am not a tech or IT person who knows everything on the internet, I will write also what would be my experience as I explore Google+ .


Since I don't know more about it how to use it. I google search the word" google+" and their appears a link to www.google.com/+/learnmore

When you go to that link you can see at the upper left tab you can see
on the Overview, Details, Discuss

Here's what you can see on "Overview" tab

and link to Google+ community.


On the "Discuss" tab you can see
Community Managers, tips and tricks, Report an issue, suggest a feature or send feedback, Discuss

All information about Google+ are written in detailed.

Now going back to " Overview " page, at the upper right you can see " Join ". So after reading some information about this Google+, I think I am now a bit ready to jump in to Google+ Community.

But wait, they say I need to be invited to join the community, but i don't have any!

So I just click " Join " and seen Google on beta +. whohoo but this is what is posted


" Google in beta +.
That means you can try new features in development alone, or find technical issues occasionally. Do not worry, enjoyable it anyway!"



Ok fine... so I continue to click " Join " and now I'm asked about my basic Information, Name, Birthday, Age, and done...

next page...

I'm asked to link to my yahoomail and hotmail account to invite some of my friends but no facebook link ^_^ I just skip it anyway.

Next step is to connect to celebreties but i just skip it again I hope I can get back to them later... so I skip that page and I have now created my own profile with no friends.

So this is my FIRST experience using Google+ beta.
