We’ve been hanging out on Google+ all week, creating my CIRCLES and basically trying to figure out if this Facebook rival is worth my time. Over the course of the week more and more people having joined–most of whom, like me, have no idea what they’re doing!
Privacy
With Google+ you can control what information in your profile you want to make visible to specific people, to circles, or to everyone.
Go to your Google Account and log in. At the top right, you’ll see a drop down. Click it to reveal these options:
To review defaults and make changes to your settings, go to Account Settings and you’ll see Profile and Privacy on the left navigation menu. Click that to navigate to the page where you can update your privacy settings.
Tip: Visit the Privacy Center to read more about Google’s privacy policies.
Notifications
While in Google Accounts, click on the GOOGLE+, under PROFILE AND POLICY, to review and edit your notifications.
Choose if you want to be notified for things like: posts and mentions of your name, comments on a post you’ve commented on, when someone adds you to a circle, when someone tags you in a photo, and more.
Tip: To view and manage information stored in your Google Account, sign in and view your Dashboard
I’ll leave you with a video that came across my stream yesterday that made me smile. “Start Your Own Circle”
