Reposting this in the wake of the current Nest thermostat die-off. Customers respond really well when you
- Admit that you made a mistake
- And try to make things right.
I hope our friends at Nest invest in a similar response.

Uhhhhh, how would I have been able to influence this decision?
Backgound: we still need something like this to render snippets for sharing URLs to G+. Well, unless search wants to provide a low latency API/service to render a webpage with javascript and all that that.

Here's a 30 day challenge.
Only consume Youtube and Play Music content in a language you barely know.
This is how much of the world interacts with our products.
All of a sudden you understand why lyric videos are so popular on Youtube. It also explains weird comments on G+ from people that are just playing around with English.
I've been doing something like that for a few days. It's eye opening.
Oh and if you're interested in music discovery from Suisse Romande see the link below.

So maybe it's just me, but I've misposted to the wrong target multiple times in the past week. I think it's because I'm used to the send-arrow being right next to the audience.
With Tau the Post button is on the bottom, thus my eye doesn't cross the default audience.
I thought that privacy had a requirement that the send be right next to the post button for exactly this reason.

Installed the OnHub with it's quite large -wallwart- power supply.
The Airport Extreme I replaced had this built-in and had an AC power cord.
I have mixed feelings
- Wall warts are ugly and don't play well with power strips.
but...
- I can probably use a passive PoE injector/splitter to run everything over a single cable.
Anyone tried this? Especially with a teeny splitter that could squeeze into the enclosure?
[And then I just need a power strip with 12v and 5v outputs....]

*Share all the G+ Post Links on Android*
A long time ago the deciders decided that G+ would *not* share Google+ post links the standard Android way. Instead you got a Copy Link menu item which required you to manually switch apps, often killing off the G+ app on low memory devices.
So we fixed the glitch.
As of yesterday 'Share link' replaces 'Link' when viewing a post. Share to Facebook, Twitter, Pocket, Hangouts, Flipboard or Keep. Share a link from consumer G+ to Corp G+. Or even launch Barcode reader and make a QR code. And when you're done, press the back button and you'll return to where you started.
Moral of the story: don't fight the platform. Use it. Rely on what people know instead of substituting your own custom thing. Ecosystems > Walled Gardens.
