Finding people and setting up Circles is a vital part of the Google+ experience. The other part is using Circles to share what’s happening in your life. Sharing is the key ingredient of all social networking sites: the more you post, the better your experience will be.
A post can share anything from what you’re doing right at that moment to something cool you’ve discovered. It can also just be your thoughts or opinions. Posts can be plain text or include links to websites, video clips, photos, and even your geographic location.
A cool thing about Google+ is that you can share posts with different Circles, which is what makes it a really powerful social media network. It also makes it a bit more complex to use than Facebook or Twitter but ultimately, much more rewarding. In this chapter I show you all the cool things you can do with your posts.
