Google Circles Explained

Erick Schonfeld attempts to explain Google Circles, with a little help from a Ross Mayfield slideshare presentation.

Zuckerberg’s Not So Subtle Dig At Google Circles:
The Circles feature is how Google+ handles groups, but it is not completely intuitive and problems can arise when different Circles collide It is designed to let members set up different groups of people, or Circles, to share things with.

But Circles are one-way, or asymmetric. Everyone sets up their own Circles and nobody knows whose Circle they are in. Secret Circles would be a more apt description. Zuckerberg seems to be suggesting that they are not really groups because instead of everyone in the group knowing who else is in the group, it is the exact opposite: nobody knows which groups they are in.

Circles are so confusing that Ross Mayfield created the Slideshare below to explain it all. Facebook has a “symmetric sharing” model where two people mutually confirm that they are friends, and then can start sharing stuff with each other privately or publicly. Twitter has an “asymmetric follow” model where people Tweet out publicly and anyone can follow what they are broadcasting without that person necessarily following back. It’s one-way.

Google+, however, has an “asymmetric sharing” model where you can share one-way with people, but they don’t have to share back. It’s kind of like the Circle of Trust in Meet the Fockers (watch the video clip in the third slide), only not quite as funny.

Re-Thinking Your Next CV

The CV or curriculum vitae is the academics version of a resume. Whether you're in academia, industry, or looking for your first job, this presentation provides some good advice for building an online CV or an online presence. My favorite pieces:
  • A blog to share your thoughts
  • Linkedin to connect
  • Facebook to engage
  • And connect them!
Other important points:
  • Design the CV - i.e. give it some thought, don't just throw it together
  • You can still you "old" media
  • Include a video - great advice!
  • Show off your skills!

Social Media Versus Old Media

Great slideshare presentation from John Willshire. He really does a great job of frame the difference between old media and new or social media and describing media as the connective tissue that binds us all together.
