Social Media Club Book Club Review: Google+ (Chris Brogan)
When I was tasked with reviewing this book, I became very excited. I feel like I make full use of LinkedIn and Facebook, and I'm making progress with Twitter, but I just haven't "gotten" Google+. So much hype was built up about Google+ with having to wait for your opportunity and invitation! Unfortunately, it hasn't lived up to the hype; at least not for me, and for only a handful of the 400+ friends and associates I have in other programs. So I was excited to begin this book, especially with the subtitle, "How Google's Social Network Changes Everything."
Chris Brogan's Google+ Book Review
I loved the book Google+ by Chris Brogan and I learned a lot of cool new things about this powerful social media platform and why it truly deserves its fair share of online attention even at the expense of some other popular/powerful sites including Facebook and LinkedIn. Google+ has been around since July 2011 and it took just a few weeks to gain 20+ million users around the world. While Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter all have more users than Google+, Chris Brogan does a great job convincing online social media advocates and more specially business owners not only the importance of Google+ but also why it is the next big thing in the social media sphere.
