Google+ Turns 1!

Google+ Turns 1!

This post is from Matthew Rappaport posts on G+. I wanted to highlight all of the great things that can come from being active and consistent on G+. Just look at all of the great memories he lists below!

+Google+ is an EVENT that turns ONE YEAR OLD today! ( #newnews )
—————————————————————————
I’ve met many amazing people over the course of this year through Hangouts, the stream, other plussers, recommendations and all over this here + .

Throughout my time here I’ve done a few things (one is make many posts with lovely +mention s that earned me the #rappatag / #taggaport nicknames ala +Cliff Roth) . .

Without a doubt besides meeting many, connecting a ton to each other, helping a lot to that “Aha!” moment, sharing +999999999+ laughs, mentoring #hangoutsonair shows, helping to establish G+ culture (+G+ Achievement Unlocked!), supporting as many as possible, getting issues resolved, talking more in one year than ever before [gotta be close!], going full force with +Google+ Your Business Pages including +G+ Business Pages Directory & +Shared Circles on G+, creating +Hangout Conversations, +Conversations+, & +The PLUStainment Show #hangoutsonair while +Tearing through the Legends, planning & attending the 1st Big G+ +H.I.R.L. weekend in Feb 2012 ( #nychirl / now #nychirl2 coming in August 2012!), and being part of an extremely passionate group of people from plussers to googlers to cool people doing +Plustastic what I call ZEALOUS EXALTATION [Really dedicated excitement!]!

Major and Minor keys aside .. I want to relive my G+ Historical Times,+Hangout Moments and more with you:
