Good morning, Lenn. Google+ certainly caused a stir and FB will never quite be the same. I still foresee Google+ surpassing FB withing a few years...

Hi Lynn - Facebook constantly changes its privacy settings and people constantly need to update them.

I really like G+, I have a different circle of friends there. I know that every quarter, at least, we all need to check the privacy settings on all of our really active Social Media Channels. Thanks for the reminder! :-)

Hi Lynn:

Thanks for reminding us of this information. I think we waive our privacy by signing up with these social media sites.

Dear Michael-
Always glad to see you here! I often think you are making jokes - you know I am not the famous Lenn - just Lynn B from Atlanta, right? Anyway - I totally agree with you - QUALITY based - G+ already surpassed FB.

Dear Marc,

Amazing how different the "terms" are on every site. Now that I know some sites become the "owner" without restrictions - FOREVER - of all content, I am very careful to read terms before I sign up.

Have a happy day -

Dear C.Lloyd,
Actually it is staggering how different "terms" are on every site. Some DO NOT retain any rights.
I am very careful to read before I sign up. Glad to see you here!

Hi Lynn! Like Lauren, I'm enjoying Google+ but, have not had the time to really invest that I would like to. I definitely have to check out the privacy controls and make sure I've done nothing 'stupid' out there on the World Wide Web!

All these social networking web sites have me pulling back since they were taking way too much time. ActiveRain is an exception.

Lynn,

It is a never ceasing topsy truvy ride these days, and keeping up with it is a rough ride some days. It is all part of the lifecycle. LOL A

Lynn, you're always that friendly and sweet nudge that I need to get the latest and greatest info, or whatever it is that I am lacking in my internet socializing megaforce realm! Ha! It's CRAZY and I sometimes feel very much left behind, but I'm really NOT. It's just that I find out about this stuff, put it on my mental to-do list, then the next day--uh, bye bye! It goes away, replaced by the mundane things, like following up on leads! It's that Stephen Covey, important-but not urgent-stuff that really needs to be attended to.

Ok, I'm feeling guilty, but I know you're not doing it to me--just advising!! So--thank you!!

It's not just how it is used for real estate, but how it is used for life. Just think, if Congresman Weiner had simply gone over to his girlfriend's place like people did several decades ago (and like I still do), he might still be a Congressman!
