January 10, 2012: Google+ for Business
Lynette Young of Purple Stripe Productions,
(Click for larger version)
Google+ is the latest attempt at social networking from Internet search, advertising and product giant Google. Already six months old and nearly half the size of LinkedIn, Google+ has almost 70 million users and is now considered a 'Big Five' social network. With features such as 10-person video chats called Hangouts, the ability to arrange contacts in Circles, and rich multimedia publishing opportunities with photos, videos, and text, Google+ is the hottest place to be personally and professionally.

Lynette Young of Purple Stripe Productions will walk through the vital pieces of Google+, give tips and tricks that helped her catapult to one of the Top 50 followed women in the platform, and show live, hands-on feature tours of what makes Google+ the next big thing ... right now!
