Who are you looking for?

Easy to search & contact

Add people to Circles, creating new ones as you go.

People in your Circles can see the information you share to that Circle.

If they add you back, your updates will appear in their feed.

Create a status update, remove ‘Your Circles’ and use + to add the name of the user you’d like to send a private message to.

Selecting a specific Circle will mean the people in that circle can see your update, if they look.

Keeping the circle under 100 members will allow you to send an email – use courteously.
