- Google announced this week it has begun to roll out new features to Google+ for individual and business users.
- New features include: Graphical Circle prioritization tool (volume slider), a revamped Notifications tab, multi-manager support for Google+ Pages, Follower and +1 integration, and a revamped Photo Lightbox with new tagging functionality.
- The Digital Trends post includes three video demos that illustrate the new features.
- In a related post, Mashable reports the social network is being bolstered by Google searches. The company has integrated Google+ brand page information in primary search results, providing great incentives for brands to join up.
- As of yet, only some brands — such as Toyota and AT&T — have had their G+ pages among top search results. Content from the G+ page uses the Direct Connect function (typing in the brand name and a “+” in Google search to produce their G+ page), so only those companies that are eligible for Direct Connect will have their G+ pages among their search results.
