There are some concerns with Google+ and privacy, but they mostly are
an issue for people who don't use their legal name on at least some
of their internet activity. Google+'s implementation of it's "real
name" policy leaves something to be desired.
I know of at least one
person who had tried to use a nickname. Google+ somehow guessed at
his "real name", got it wrong, but then put that name not only on his
Google+ account but also on some other Google services he used,
(which were already published to other people) without warning him it
would do so.
That being said, I use Google+, and agree that it is in many ways
better than Facebook. If you create a Google+ presence for NAFEX, I
would like to join. You will have an awkward issue that few NAFEX
users use a gmail account on NAFEX, so all these people (including
me) will need to subscribe to the NAFEX group with a different email
account than they use for the mailing list. But I'm sure the details
can be worked out.
Ginda Fisher Eastern MA, zone 6, where the unusual weather has
convinced some plants that it is spring. Oh - and on a fruit note - I
roto-tilled and re-seeded part of my lawn this fall. Lots of weeds
are sprouting among the grass seeds. The most peculiar "weed" is
tomatoes. I have tomato seedlings everywhere. I guess the chipmunks
that have eaten my entire crop have been spreading seeds, and some of
those seeds were even ripe enough to sprout. Who knew?
