G+ Web Preview Update 12/18


G+ Web Preview Update 12/18
Today we're continuing to improve our G+ preview on the Web based on your feedback and adding a new feature:

* +1 comments with one click using the action that appears when you hover over each comment
* View precisely when posts were made with the full timestamp on post pages
* Provide additional details when reporting abuse on posts. (I recognize this adds an additional click or two but the added information we collect helps us ensure G+ remains a great place to connect around shared interests.)

As before, we're continuing to listen to your suggestions and ideas on how to improve G+ so please keep them coming using the Send Feedback menu item.
Thanks~

    Still rubbish, limited, and broken with far too many clicks required.

    It's not a "preview" its a farce.

    Yeah, but anyone with half a brain would have just improved the current system, instead of attempting to make a whole new one.

    Daniel Fitzgerald unfortunately not always true. Sometimes the technical dept is just too big and completely new system is the only way out. Other times complete rewrite gives you some advantage and that's this case I guess.

    Well, I'm an Android app developer, and for me, total rewrites are always a problem. As it just causes new problems, and often doesn't resolve existing ones, due to the same mistakes being made again, rather than actually researching and finding out why an issue occours in the first place.

    Daniel Fitzgerald makes sense. The old G+ version was most likely made using the Google Web Toolkit which is no longer maintained as far as I know. If they want to move fast and figure things along the way, rewrite was the only option.
    Now they're actually trying to make something for G+ users, look at how well they react to feedback. The old version was just "hey people, here's Google+, do what ever you want with it" and that was it. No additional support, development just some stupid features here and there.

    I agree getting better... Still I prefer the desktop to this.

Warning: Sharing That Image Could Get You Banned or Blacklisted

Warning: Sharing That Image Could Get You Banned or Blacklisted Most people have no idea that the way in which they are sharing images on #SocialMedia  or on their blogs could actually get them banned, blacklisted, or worse! In this next part of my Sharing Images Online series I take on the heavy task of explaining the legal side of sharing images in a simple way that everyone can understand.  Read the full post here:  http://dustn.tv/sharing-images-responsibly/ It basically boils down to this - you either have explicit written consent to use an image, or you don't. And if you use someone's copyrighted image because you just so happened to find it online you risk having your social media account deleted/banned or your website blacklisted! Let's all make the internet a better place for creators and curators alike and stop sharing images recklessly, and stop supporting those who knowingly (or unknowingly) do as well .  In the full post I tried to keep it as dead simple as
