I spend time there every week....I don't see Google killing Google+.... my presence is fine....I'm not a Bill Gassett but I'm good enough!!!  I have 6,600 followers.... it could be worse!!

The extent of my commitment to Google Plus at this point is linking AR posts there.   I spend no time on the site.   

Stupidly, I never knew anything about Google Glass. I have an account on Google Plus and simply attach my posts in AR there. That's it. Never really give it much more thought.

Try searching with Google "san francisco real estate agent" (just an example).

See the 3 and only 3 listings in the box on the left under the map? They are only there because they have Google Plus accounts. Now tell me again why you don't use Google Plus...

I link my blogs to it everyday.  Otherwise I don't have a clue 

212 followers with 78550 viewers

Here is my take on Google+ it never replace FB like they hoped... but the platform like LinkedIn now has a FB blog feel.... But most important, its Google and they push their pages first same as You tube

Google stopped selling Glass to consumers last year noting that it was time for a strategy reset, and the head of the Google X research lab has since then said that the hype surrounding the $1,500 device became overblown considering it was merely a prototype and not a finished product.

Good morning Fred. I don't use it, so it really doesn't matter to me.

Fred Griffin - now if that happens with G+..... one less thing to worry on Social Media front...

I heard Google+ was over. I never joined. I did research it for many months last year and just didn't get it. I'm glad I didn't waste my energy on it. I didn't hear the news about Google Glass but that doesn't surprise me.

I have it and spend 0 time on there. Once in a while post links but sounds like that's a waste of time.

Yes they will kill it. I think it will be gone by summer if not sooner. I have spoken to several SEO experts in the last week and they all said Google Plus is dead, a failure.

I've never even heard of google glass. I don't do a whole lot...

Fred Griffin I rarely use google plus.

I have a G+ account that is not very active.  

This rumor has been going on since the time it started.  Not sure.  I don't use that actively anymore.  

I have been thinking about getting on Google plus, but have hesitated since I heard this rumor.

There has been talk about that for quite some time. Not sure the value is really there and the lustre has worn off

If it is not serving people well then let's hope they do. I have not spent much time on G+ at all.  It will be one less thing I need to think about

I think I'm too old to get Google Plus.

I have given up on google +. I heard it's going away. What do you know?

Fred - Interesting about Google Glass.

I am trying to get more involved in Google Plus, but I don't think I have much of a presence yet. I would be surprised if they 'kill' it, but I have heard other people share that rumor as well. 

I have hard it will be going by the wayside.

I thought that they already had abandoned this area, so sorry to hear about the demise of Glass, I was looking forward to getting one when they got better and less expensive.

That network has been rumored to be on it's death bed for many years now.  I have the verified google business page and I really don't see them getting rid of that anytime soon.  It seems to be an integral component of their mapping and reviews program.  Maybe the social network will go down, but not the business pages.

Google Plus is not going away anytime soon. In fact they have been putting more resources to making it better. Company executives have said publicly numerous times in the last 3-5 months it is not going anywhere due to all the stupid articles that people put out everytime they change or do away with something.

If you are a real estate agent and are not using Google Plus you are missing out on a huge opportunity. Remember it is a Google product and if someone is logged into Google (most people don't log out) and they are connected to you they will see your blog in a search result 9 times out of 10 on the first page.

It is also the best place bar none to build relationships with people who know what they are doing online in the real estate industry. Building relationships with industry influencers is key to making your real estate business grow.

Or you can just comment on each others posts here at Active Rain everyday:)

I merely post my AR blogs; that's it.

Not making a difference for me. Just another leg-up into cyberspace

I love it but this last year I've been a little MIA. That is on my list for 2016. I get great placement from all posts there btw.

Being new to AR I have Google+ but I have not been posting my blogs there.  I need to start.  Thank you everyone.  I don't spend any time there and I don't know anything about Google Glass.

I am on G+ but not as much as I should be.

I do not use it much other than post blogs to it every now and then, was always too hard and not much figure out

I do not use it.
