A report by the Atlantic shined a light on a new “social media service” which allows users to purchase Google +1′s in bulk. The site in question, Pluseem, has a variety of different Google+ package sizes, from 50 plusses to 2,000, with the prices ranging from $0.18 – $0.38 per plus.

Just came across this article below from Brad McCarty. All in all, a good change for Facebook and a way to capitalize on the news of business profiles getting deleted on Google+.

However, for Facebook to continue to be the force they are, here’s what they need to do:

Take time to regain focus: Things will make more sense to them and they can then focus in a better frame of mind. When and if a business implements solely on fear and rush to cover their ass, things tend to go downhill. Not as good quality/value.

Calm down higher ups: Stop putting immense pressure on those who actually create. The creators and idea makers are the future of the network. Give them space and let them do what they do best without breathing down their neck.

Yes, deadlines are necessary and it sure doesn’t hurt to be reasonable 🙂

The big shift: Far better to work from a place of relaxed focus than “Oh my god, we gotta get this done NOW!” focus.

I have no issue about using my real name with my own account.

I have no issue about using my real name with my own account… and understand why it’s crucial…but is anyone else sick of the username debate yet?

WIRED: Google+ Identity Crisis: What’s at Stake With Real Names and Privacy by Tim Carmody via Audrey Watters

Dave Winer: “There’s a very simple business reason why Google cares if they have your real name. It means it’s possible to cross-relate your account with your buying behavior with their partners, who might be banks, retailers, supermarkets, hospitals, airlines. To connect with your use of cell phones that might be running their mobile operating system. To provide identity in a commerce-ready way. And to give them information about what you do on the Internet, without obfuscation of pseudonyms.

Simply put, a real name is worth more than a fake one.”
