Indie Authors, Google Plus +1 Me

As a reminder to Indie authors, you'll see it referred to as Google Plus, Google + or Google +1, and it's the latest greatest social media site on the planet. There's a previous blog post in a bit more detail here, and this time just wanted to remind writers, readers, publishing people alike to please connect with me. Just click on this link here – https://plus.google.com/117850331447734054313/

And if you think this is a nifty badge, you can make one easily for your own sites at http://turhan.me/+me/.

However, some people might say, "Great, do I really need or even want to get involved in yet another social media site? Already feeling stretched as it is, y'know." That's an understandable feeling. But Google Plus is different and poised for good things in my opinion. It's sort of the best of both Facebook and Twitter, although the design is presently just for personal profiles and not for businesses. Rest assured, Google is working on that and says business profiles should be active within a few months. The ability to separate friends, family, followers and other groups (like business contacts) into individual categories (who only see what you want them to see) is what makes Google Plus a savvy social media site. Over 20 million people have joined in a short time and many more are signing up everyday.

If you haven't received an invitation yet, just send out an email to your pals and family asking for one. Someone you know should have invites to give. Everyone gets 150 invites to distribute, and most people have plenty left over so it shouldn't be a big deal. If that doesn't work out contact me at jason (at) thelittleuniverse (dot) com and I'll get you in there as long as my invites hold out.
