Since Google+ is so new, I asked everyone on our team at DealerOn to put together a list of resources for car dealers trying to wrap their minds around this new way of social networking (myself included).  Here’s a list of links/sites that we’ve put together.

The Google+ Project: A demo from Google that is pretty informative, but doesn't explore too deeply.

Google+ Unveiled: 9 Things You Need to Know: Very basic explanation of the basic features behind Google+.  Good starting point after the Google demo above.

Your Google+ Guide: 15 Tips for Newbies: Guide to getting the most out of the new social network.

Google+ Cheat Sheet: A short cheat sheet with some keyboard shortcuts and other useful information.

What Will Google Plus Google Places Equal?: Hypothetical look at how business may be able to use Google+ once it is opened to businesses.  Interesting Read.

Google+ in 15 Minutes a Day: Interesting post on how to fit another social networking site into your already busy day.

Google+ takes on Facebook. Is Basecamp next?: Discusses ways that businesses could use Google+ as a business tool.  Seems like it could be used as a project management tool.

Feel free to share any helpful articles or blog posts that you've found, as well as any tips or tricks that help you get the most out of the new tool.

What is the overall consensus on Google+--positive or negative?
