This is my take on the information flow in Google+, showing pretty clearly where the points of contention are, at the Sparks input, and the (non-existent) output. Harold Jarche blogs some additional diagrams. As does Judy O'Connell.
Output from Google Plus is still broken; the only way to create an RSS feed of your stream is this hack.
Here are some Getting Started With Google Plus videos, by Chris Brogan.
Gina Minks adds, Google+ really is all about you:
- You decide how to arrange your social networks in circles
- You are responsible for scanning and filtering the firehose of information
- You can talk to anyone, and anyone can talk to you
This item shows how you can hide the list of people you're following. I never followed on Twitter because I didn't want to show preferences. Now that I've found this, I can keep my list to myself on Google+ as well.
