(18th in the world),

Microsoft 2856
Apple 2482
Cognizant Technology 2417
Solutions
The numbers are not a lot to draw any meaningful insights but good to see
Infosys, TCS with high numbers there. Gmail being a ubiquitous mailing
system could be a huge reason why many would be driven to sign-up on the
network.

33. WANT
vs
Wanting something means that
you currently desire to possess it LIKE
or experience it.
Intent search Liking something just means it
pleases you, whenever it's
around or whenever you
experience it
Content search

37. Highly Targeted Advertising With Google Plus,
Ie what you want & what you like
Google is poised to fuse search intent (what traditional search engine
advertising is based on)
&
user behaviour (social indicators from users).
there is a lot of new potential for extremely specific targeting based on user-
submitted data, too.

38. Google Plus Adoption by Businesses / Brands
might be slow initially, but over a period of time, it will surely catch on.
Business/ Brand public profiles will be integral part of SERPs (Search Engine
Ranking Pages) and will be tightly integrated with search engine. This will
attract lot more traffic to the brands & businesses than probably what
Facebook or Twitter do today.
Having said that, a lot will also depend on how open Google Plus makes itself
to developer ecosystem. They need to release the APIs at the earliest to ensure
that apps are build around it. And looking at how well Google has put up the
Apps Marketplace,
we will soon see a large developer ecosystem around Google Plus.
So, Brands & Businesses need to move fast and start making their presence felt
on Google Plus. Some are already on it – MTV India is the first Indian Brand on
Google plus !

39. marketing ploy by Google where they’ve asked their employees to
circulate these images or they’ve been created by anti-facebookers
who’ve been waiting for someone to do come up with something that
can rival FB.

41. development of G+ has finally got Google, the omnipresent status.
Google had every trick in the book, from Google Docs, Google Earth & Gmail to
image sharing Flickr, video sharing YouTube & a blogging portal in Blogspot;
a truly global social networking site was the only thing that was missing. With
G+, it seems circle is complete. Although, some would argue that Google already
had Orkut, but as mentioned, Google really wanted a GLOBAL social networking
site and according to their Google Earth, the planet has 200+ countries and not just
India & Brazil. Hence, G+.
Reality Check – Google+ is the fastest growing website but still it’s far from
catching up with Facebook’s 750+ million users. And Facebook is just one step
away from Gmail once @facebook.com mail id starts working in its full fledged
avatar.
