ReplyDeleteIt's really interesting and i believe that Google+ can be incredibly useful particularly for educational purposes, but only if the proper training is applied and it's utilized properly. The same can even be said of Facebook and twitter, and sites like Delicious. They can be a valuable source, they just need to be controlled and utilized in the correct ways. Social media training can be useful in figuring out these complexities.
