Google Plus' Chief Architect +Yonatan Zunger has gone on the record stating that Google Plus isn't going anywhere. Zunger ensured that the Google Plus team is keeping it's core community and will maintain it's goal to grow. Inevitably there will be an evolution, something that all loyal Google Plus users are accustom to, but the SEO benefits and increased visibility make it worth it. Plus, we're a scrappy bunch, aren't we? Even Google CEO +Larry Page is quoted as saying that they'll “continue working hard to build great new experiences for the ever increasing number of Google+ fans.”

In the midst of all the speculation, Mom It Forward was invited to SNAP!, a 3-day conference for socially savvy DIY, creative, and special occasion bloggers, where we were asked to present on Google Plus. Because we still feel there are oustanding benefits to bloggers using Google Plus to grow their audiences and communities, we're bringing an overview of the presentation we did with Angie of The Country Chic Cottage.

Here's a photo that we snapped just before our presentation!
