This week’s sidebar poll: Are you using Google+?
Google plus what?
Now, Google+ might catch a lot of flak from the media and the rest of the social media market for being… well… a bit odd. And truth be told, Google’s social platform is a bit odd compared to most other platforms. It’s free to both users and brands, there’s no advertising, there’s not much marketing of Google+ as a platform — which makes the fact that Google+ has more monthly active users than Pinterest or Twitter all the more impressive. Now, you might keep hearing how Google+ is dying — it’s not — and it’s leadership is jumping ship, but actually Google+ has been active, if not thriving recently, after buying Polar Polls and just this week the acquisition of photo storing and sharing startup Odysee. Not exactly the sign of a dying service, is it?
