I feel compelled to post something to counteract the dozen reshares of Christian's Google+ for business post..
I hope this season of Torchwood is decent. It can be pretty hit or miss, but when it hits it's pretty darn good.
Apache Invites.. Looking forward to connecting with more people here.

Remember Vox? I had the good fortune to be at Six Apart for it's development and launch. A lot of amazing work went into it and sadly it is no more. Vox was ahead of it's time and I feel that Google+ has much of what I liked about it.
You see back then Six Apart acquired Livejournal for it's amazing technology and it's foothold into the social space beyond blogging. There was a hitch though, LJ code was open sourced and GPL'd. It would be hard to sell a rebranded LJ to people like NTT, or other Typepad partners.. Also as a service LJ had developed it's own culture that might not benefit from a wave of mommy bloggers, nor would said bloggers be comfortable with the cutters and goths over at LJ.
Thus Comet was born and launched as Vox. You could follow with Friends/Family groups. Each post could be as private and public as you liked. You could cross-post to LJ, apply stylish themes to your blog and there was the #qotd (question of the day) which sparked up some great conversations and helped build a sense of community.
Some of the features found their way into Typepad, and Typepad's profiles. Sadly, many did not.
What do you think Six Aparters? What features do you miss that you'd like to see here?
Spent some time mapping the shortcuts my neighborhood using Google Mapmaker. Luckily I was able to get most of my data from the Oakland Urban Paths database.
My mapmaker profile is here:

The crazy thing is despite being a tech lead for Google+ Connected Sites I didn't have this in our node mapper system. I'll have to get right on that :-)
Picked up one of these this weekend at Peets. It makes great iced coffee!

Airship Ventures is on tour and coming to Minneapolis July 12 - 17, here are some pictures from our zeppelin ride last February. Highly recommended.
Pseudo invite to Google+
Hi Oren,
Senidng on behalf of Byrne Reese.. I'm pretty sure this post will send you a Google+ invite. If not please email me at lindner@inuus.com and I'll get you when the next window cracks open.

Help your friends find you! - another Google+ tip...
Add and verify all of your email addresses to your Google Account here:
https://
This makes it easier for your friends to find you now and in the future! I've found that I don't know the gmail address of many people, but I do know their corp email or another alias. Plus if you lose your password you can send a recovery email to your alternate address.
Be aware that you can only associate one email per Google account and you can't add another gmail address to another account. If you want to associate email addresses to your primary account you can visit this page:
https://
1) If the email is listed as a secondary address, remove it on the old account and add to the primary.
2) If the email is primary you can change the email address of the unused account and replace it with something like username+unused@gmail.com. Then add the renamed email to the primary account.
Cheers.
Hi Opensocial folks. As you may have noticed that I'm a bit busy lately. Tonight I'm going to catch up on shindig/spec work.
Thanks to everyone in this community for making Opensocial a success!
Hi current and former Six Apart folks..
Hope you're enjoying your foray's into Google+.. Sending this out so some of you might receive invites. (It's somewhat non-deterministic, so I'm not sure if it'll go out..)
Feel free to hit the send feedback link in the lower right or ping me. Also I'm happy to work with anyone on driving deeper connectivity to Six Apart or other properties. (My main focus is on connecting sites, contacts, activities, all that..)
Here's a good article on what I've been working on lately including an inside look at what goes on at Google..

A couple of people have asked about importing facebook contacts. Sadly we cannot do that, however there is a workaround:
* Import Your facebook friends via Yahoo:

* Then connect your yahoo account to Google+ here:
A whole new class of Google+ jokes has sprung up....

Your moms so fat, she huddle all by herself.
Welcome aboard Google+!
Invites are still flowing out, so pay attention to your inbox (and hopefully not your spam folder!)
Hope you'll take the plunge into Google+ -- It has a lot of the Vox vibe that I miss so much!
Also I'm doing connected sites work (try connecting your yahoo/live account!) there's a lot of cool stuff we can do together. Just let me know at plindner@google.com
