Google+ Exporter

More on the New Google+ Today we made several Google+ announcements: 1. Google+ will become a core Google for Work service 2. We're launching a few new features 3. The Google+ Web experience will be default on for everyone (with an option to switch back to Google+ classic) Also of note, in November ( http://goo.gl/4ACDk9 ): "There are 1.2 million joins of communities a day on the platform…and collections are seeing even more pickup" And today: "Since introducing the new version, twice as many Collections are followed per day and there are 1.6 million daily new Community joins." Full details are in Danielle's post: https://plus.google.com/+DanielleBuckley/posts/AnaA1XCANWm

Links & Images in Comments We're starting to roll out the ability to add images and links to comments on Google+ for Android, iOS, and the Web. When leaving a comment with a link, you'll be able to select a specific image or post without one. You can also remove both images and links before posting your comment and we'll warn you to make sure nothing gets lost. As always, please send us your ideas/issues using our Send Feedback menu item as that's the best way to ensure we'll see them. Thanks~

Bringing the new Google+ to more people Last November, ( http://goo.gl/Yn6mjA ) we introduced a preview on web of a fully redesigned Google+ to make it easier for people to discover and connect around unique and interesting things. From a Japanese astronaut sharing his experience in the International Space Station ( http://goo.gl/JZQ7wH ) to food lovers sharing their passion for breadmaking ( http://goo.gl/wEh0C8 ), people are using Google+ to explore their interests more than ever. Since introducing the new version, twice as many Collections are followed per day and there are 1.6 million daily new Community joins. Many of you have also shared feedback and requests, and we’ve been listening ( http://goo.gl/IMLvy7 ). Today, we’re announcing three new updates for Google+. First, some new features. You can now have richer conversations by adding links and photos to your comments. We’re also offering Community owners and moderators more control over who posts what with approved posting. Fi

9 Months of New Web Features Since launching our new Google+ Web preview nine months ago, we’ve been busy listening to all the feedback, ideas, and issues you’ve shared with us. The end result has been a continuous stream of feature additions, fixes, and updates. With today’s news ( http://goo.gl/kqe5MT ), I thought it would be useful to recap all these changes and thank everyone for their help in identifying and launching the following: Home Stream * Ability to reply to comments in the stream * +1 comments with one click * New presentation for original comments on re-shared posts * Real-time indicator of when there's new posts * Auto-play of animated GIFs (with setting to turn on/off) * 3 column stream view for very wide screens * Hover over user images for more info about people * "What You Missed" posts in your Home stream * Full timestamp on post pages * No limits on circle streams in menu Posts * Ability to create polls * Ability to crop photos in polls * Upload mult

G+ Android Update 8.4 & 8.5 We're continuing to work on larger re-writes that will make development on the Google+ Android app faster in the future. As a result, our Android releases continue to be lighter on features and mostly consist of bug fixes. Two weeks ago we rolled out version 8.4.0 of the G+ Android app and today we're rolling out version 8.5.0. Between them: * 21 bug fixes * 3 accessibility issues addressed * Show profile pictures next to comments in home stream As always, please send us your ideas/issues using our Send Feedback menu item as that's the best way to ensure we'll see them. Thanks~

G+ iOS Update 5.9.0 Our eighth Google+ iOS app update of the year is rolling out today with updated profile features and a new movie mode for cinematic viewing of YouTube videos. John's post has the details: https://plus.google.com/+JohnKilcline/posts/SoZe1TNdfRn Thanks~

Google+ Collections Search Google+ search now returns a bigger set of Collections that are relevant to your searches and interests, via improved topicality search. For instance, searching for "Bird photos" today surfaces a wider set of Collections that are topically relevant but may not have those specific words in their name. As always, please send us your ideas/issues using our Send Feedback menu item as that's the best way to ensure we'll see them. Thanks~

Google App Engine is seriously broken right now. Even the incident report is not accessible :)

Well, Google Cloud Platform (our server hosting) is having a problem... Web application is not available at the moment as a result of this "problem". We'll keep you posted. Thank you all for your patience. UPDATE-1: it works, we're up again! UPDATE-2: and it's down again :( UPDATE-3: and it's up again :)

Introducing the Album Archive Today we made the Google Album Archive available to all our users. This new page is an archive for Picasa Web Albums ( http://googlephotos.blogspot.com/2016/02/moving-on-from-picasa.html ) which previously collected your photo albums across Google services such as: * Google+ photos from posts * Google profile photos * Photos from Blogger * Photos shared in Hangouts * Maps panoramas * and more On the Album Archive, you can view, download, or delete these albums and photos. As the name implies... this really is an archive (no commenting, editing, adding, etc.) and part of our transition from Picasa. You can access your album archive page from your About Me page on Google: https://aboutme.google.com/ Your Album Archive page includes a 'Photos of You' album which shows any photos you have been tagged in including photos owned by other people. Additionally, you can navigate to other people’s Album Archive pages by tapping on ABOUT on their Google+ profi

Why Collections? We on the Google+ team often get asked why are you making this or that change? What's the thinking behind product changes/features. To that end, thought I'd share my perspective on why Collections?... Collections allows people to organize what they publish into multiple topics. These topics can be followed or unfollowed. This: * helps readers to get more content with control they don’t have when just following people. many other social sites are "all or nothing" when it comes to following people. * frees up content creators to publish more and not worry about overloading followers. we often hear concerns about "spamming my followers" with posts they might consider irrelevant. * encourages content creators to post across multiple interests instead of focusing only on one topic. i.e. don't just have to be the "deep sea photography person" * gives content creators archiving abilities they long for. many publish as personal catalog

Для кросспостинга создано множество сервисов на любой вкус и цвет. К сожалению, лишь немногие из них работают с #Google+. И ещё меньшее число работает с обычными страницами, группами или коллекциями в этой социальной сети. Я попробовал несколько таких сервисов и понял, что работающих вариантов всего два. Это расширение Do Share и сервис Friends+Me, про который я расскажу ниже. http://bit.ly/2arv0Ey http://fpme.link/okO63v
