Final thoughts for Google+
• It's time to shift our footprint from exploiting the algo's weaknesses, to engineering human behaviour and harvesting the right signals i.e. Online PR with and SEO backdrop > G+
• For me its an either way bet
• G+ Win: we are early adopters and we out pace competitors
• G+ Fail: we use this content and engagement on other social channels anyway
