You probably heard this week that there are now Google Plus brand pages. And, yes I signed up the Family Medicine Rocks website for one of these delightful things. Why? Two reasons. First, I was curious to see if there was anything different versus my personal G+ page.
But more importantly, I would like to see if anyone in my circles (hehe) also signs up their organization or business for one - particularly, I'll be watching my own Family Medicine community (basically the FamMed membership organizations and #FMRevolution) and those in the healthcare social media (#hcsm) community.
I gotta be honest, I'm not going to be using my brand page that much - just like I don't use my personal G+ page that much. Unlike facebook, the critical mass has not been reached here yet. Then why sign up? Well, I'm basically hedging my bets. And, if for some reason G+ takes off, I'll have my stake planted in the ground - ready for action...
