<div align=justify>Google+ is definitely not all things to all people, nor does Google want it to be. It does offer some great features and a relatively uncluttered interface, and this week's release of features might attract some new users. Here's what you can expect to see by Friday: 


* The most serious changes come to your navigation. You'll move around over on the left instead of up top, and there are some neat new changes to the ribbon. Some of the button items will show you options when you hover over them, speeding up your social maneuvering, and every one of them can be dragged and dropped into the ordering you prefer. If you've got an app you can't live without, just drag it over into the More section for quick access. 

* The look is somewhat cleaner and easier to scan through. Conversations are gently separated into "cards" that make browsing easier on the eyes. Photos and videos are sharper and pop out of the screen. Each conversation card now features an "activity drawer" accessible from the bottom right that shows reshares and +1s. 

* One of the key features in Google+ has been Hangouts, the easy social-meeting spaces that make real-time video connections as simple as possible. Google has made it much easier to find and join Hangouts. Your Invite list is continually updated, and public or On Air hangouts are easily searchable. Popular Hangouts are listed and refreshed regularly. 

That's it for now. Google is promising more new features to come, but we'll just have to wait to see what they cook up next.</div>
