So Google+ had an update recently and just like you I'm trying to figure out how to use it, what the benefit's are or if I even like it (jury's still out on that one).

Regardless of all the 'new white space' and, love it or hate it, Google+ is here to stay.

Google is pushing this bad boy (so it doesnt lose the social media race), and if those Google (augmented reality glasses) are anything to go by (and by that I mean 'real'), then Facebook better watch out!

In the meantime though, check out SocioloG+ - it's a great resource to help you take full advantage of Google+

I recently flew to Los Angeles to represent Bosweb Systems at the Adobe MAX conference with 5000 other designers, developers and online marketing companies.

As part of our involvement, and as one of the leading Business Catalyst partners globally, I presented to other Business Catalyst partners from around the world.

Predominantly I focussed on 'Customer Care & Support' including discussions on the value that Business Catalyst offers to the online businesses of our clients, appreciating the needs of our clients and understanding the satisfaction of our clients with us as a service provider.

Photos of the event can be found here

In addition I was interviewed by Adobe along with other premier partners for our opinion of Adobe Business Catalyst and our partnership with them (I appear at 3m12s).
