Google Apps users finally get Google+
Google announced today a number of updates to its Google+ social network, including the ability to access the service via Google Apps.
Google+ is also getting a trending topics of sorts called "What's Hot," a feature that will let you track the popularity of posts, and a photo-editing tool.
On the Google Apps front, those who use the service for school, work, or at home can now integrate with Google+.
"Starting now you can manually turn on Google+ for your organization," Ronald Ho, a Google product manager, said in a blog post. "Once Google+ is turned on, your users will just need to sign up at google.com/+ to get started. For customers who use Google Apps for Business or the free version of Google Apps and who have chosen to automatically enable new services, Google+ will automatically become available to all of your users over the next several days."
The Google Apps version will have the same features as the regular Google+, with a few perks. "In addition to sharing publicly or with your circles, you'll also have the option to share with everyone in your organization, even if you haven't added all of those people to a circle," Ho wrote.
