Google+

/12 Comments/in /by

You know, the first thing I thought was “Why a new social network”.
I’m already on Facebook, twitter, hyves etc.   and there we have another one.
However as you could have read before I LOVE Google +, especially for Photographers/Videographers it’s I think the best network. The way it shows images, video etc. it’s just awesome, add the great mobile app and you can see why Google + is great.

 

Like with Twitter I can “G+” images and stories while on location, and to be honest my network exploded, I have more people following me on G+ in a few days than I had on Twitter in more than a year, and it’s still growing, for me I will keep updating Facebook and twitter via linked messages but to be honest I’ll be focussing on G+ more and more. So if you need an invite just let me know, you can find me on https://frankdoorhof.com/+ 

 

You might ask, “Why this blogpost, you already mentioned this a while ago”, well yes but yesterday someone send me this link and as a huge Queen fan I just HAD to share this one, and it almost exactly mirrors my feelings about Google +

      Didn’t you read that all copyrights belong and stay with the Photographer ?

      Let’s be frank and real, IF google would MISUSE the image of ANY photographer out there, they would not only be sued but they would loose ALL their visitors and members, and that for one image ?

      Any way, as a while ago mentioned on the grid, how many people ever license an image ? those numbers are incredibly small.

      And of course you can than not post on any social media site (because they all have these rules) and your work will never be seen.

      So indeed, I don’t care because I know 100% sure that there will not be a problem, again Google+ would explode when something would happen and if you sue you will win because you keep all copyrights (as mentioned first in the TOS).
