Finally have a frigging Google+ account!

(Yeah, I know, I work for them, shouldn't have been hard--put it down to a combination of stubbornness and slightly misdirected principles.)

If anyone feels like adding me, please feel free, or if my name causes problems, ping me and I'll add you. I'm probably going to be shifting over in that direction away from LJ (partially company loyalty, partially I do find it shiny). And Facebook may get drop-kicked--I've never liked it, and if I can do without it I probably will.

Yes, I am having a finding-you fail. If you don't know my full name, send me e-mail.

It just means you're not the only one having name issues! ;)

I'm there, but if I decide to post at all, it will only be trivia. I'm going to keep the more personal stuff here.

There's a lot of stuff I'd rather have divorced from my the name I use at work. And, the relationship between my gmail account and Google+ is just too close for comfort. The first time Google+ suggested I add a board member to a circle I nearly fainted. Finally, I have concerns about the way the +[username] feature works.

In short, I'm not persuaded that Google+ is going to be any more secure than Facebook, so, I'd rather keep my presence on both of those platforms pretty light.

looks like you found me (I'm VERY easy to find when using real names, just the opposite of you)

I have no idea what I'm going to use it for.

I'm having trouble finding you as well... I thought I knew your name, so that's pretty embarrassing.

If you drop me a line at myfirstname.mylastname@gmail.com, I'll encircle you. :)

Oddly, it never crossed my mind that Google+ would be a replacement for Livejournal. LJ still seems much better suited to long-format posting. The content here isn't squished into a narrow column, and there's no substitute for the threaded commenting.

I can't find you! :(

Nope. Cannot find you. Are you Randall or Randy?

Never mind. I find you now...8-)
