I just deleted a complete out-of-my-mind rant that I was smart enough not to post here. It had to do with pundits preaching and speaking about Google+ when they don't really know what end of their body the sounds are coming from, but rather riding high on their name and a complete lack of practical, strategic and practical professional and business use of the platform.

I REALLY wish I could post exactly what I thought, but I am WAY too much of a classy broad lady to do it.

    Oh Matt, there are so many BIG names out there — no one is really listening to "The NAMES" that are really saying something new, fresh and useful. I am not a follower or leader — but I love walking side by side to people who know their stuff.

    Echo that Richard. Echo that.

    I will have to wait it out – as always. Smarts, talent, and hard work do not always prevail, sadly. People are lazy and will take something known and familiar to avoid thought or effort.

    was it that nerdy looking dude trying to tell you not to do a bad blog like he was busy doing? if it was; he kind of pissed me off too! just say what you want to say,and anyone can see the truth, but no one likes narcissitic bull shit about bullshit. and you are clearly a lady of good standing whether it be on your platform or on one that needs no explainations. 'JUST DO IT," right? i think he liked hearing his self speak while looking at hisself speak in the mirror watching him look like a jack-ass. i sure hope we are referring to the same donkey/gabe

    So funny Lynette! I frequently tweet something similar re: self-editing! Man would I love to sometimes, but then better judgement — and the knowledge that words on the Internet last forever — usually stops me!
