I’ve been blogging since 2000 and can attribute a numerous positives to this activity: I was hired at University of Manitoba because of my blog and bi-weekly newsletter. | GEORGE SIEMENS JULY 10, 2011 Google+ – fundamental misunderstanding of networks? Yes, I likely respond to a small cluster of blogs and tweets that I encounter. I’ve been playing around with Google+. As others have stated, it’s Google’s best foray into social networking.
