I am here after a week's gap due to a tight schedule of my studies. Next week will also be a boring one, as i have planned a tour to Dubai with my family! Today i will be sharing an interesting post with you all. A lot discussed topic these days is the launch of the new social network Google +. It has been on since the last month and has got attraction of almost everyone on the web. With my Google+ experience of over two weeks, i got to know some tricks or you must say tips which would help you to enhance your experience on Google+. I will be sharing some of them with you all in this post :




1.  Swap the Profile Images by clicking on them - Yes it is possible, if you want to see the images of any  user just click on the profile image and it will rotate different images the number of times you click, provided the user has more than one image uploaded.

2. Drag Images and Videos Directly To the Stream To Upload - I was just experimenting it and came to know that we can even upload images and videos just by dragging them to the stream directly from your folders on your PC.

3. Be updated on your favourite topics through Sparks - Google+ also provides a service through which you can keep yourself updated with some major trending topics like Android,Fashion, Films etc. They have named it Sparks You can also add them in your personalinterests.

4. Shorten Your Google+ Profile Link with Google Plus Nick - This service provides you to shorten your Google+ profile link to a short one, you can choose a nickname for the link, Just go to Google Plus Nick and choose your nickname and paste your original link in the box and you will get your short link. Like Soham Banker - gplus.to/bankersoham .


5. Type Bold, Italic and Strikethrough text in your posts - You can also type text in bold, italic or also strikethrough words in your posts on Google+. If you will write the text something like this : *Google Plus* + _Facebook_ = -Twitter- , It will display like the image below on your profile.

6. Edit Your Photos Directly From the Google+ Photo Viewer - Google+ also allows you to edit your uploaded images directly from the image window, it offers options like Cross-process, I am feeling lucky, Black and White, Orton which designs your image in different view. It also allows auto-contrast and auto-colour.


7. Get URL of any post on Google+ by click on Timestamp - If you want to share a post you found interesting with your friends or simply get the url of the post for some purpose, just click on the timestamp below the post and copy the URL from the address bar as shown in the below image.


8. Share Your Google+ Posts On Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn - I have just found a great extension for Google chrome which allows you to share your posts from Google+ to Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn too, which saves your time and makes it easier to keep a track. It's Extended Share For Google Plus which works only on Google Chrome. Try it now !



9. Easiest and Coolest way to mention anybody in your post - It's obvious that you might want to mention someone in your post to convey some message or share a public happening. In Google+ you just need to add @ or + and write the name of the person and select from the dropdown.

10. Access Google+ from different Links - You can access Google+ from different url's like http://google.com/+ , http://google.com./plus. If you want to use it through your mobile device then just go to htp://m.google.com/plus from your device.


These were some tips which i think would help you to use Google+ like a pro and more efficiently. I would like to convey a message to Google to add verified accounts as quick as they can, it would make it a better network. So with this i complete my post. Thanks for reading it and share it with your friends!
