A must-read for photographers!,
If you are interested in social media, Google+, photography and/or building an online presence, you should invest in Google+ for Photographers. If you are a photographer and you use social media to promote your work, you need to invest in this book. Not only does Colby Brown explain how you might best use Google+ as a networking tool, he also explains how to build a following and a dynamic online presence. Colby explains Google+ in depth, starting with nuts and bolts such as the differences between social and interest networks, then moves into the specifics of Google+ (aka G+) with respect to both photography and general interaction. As a bonus, while you read you’re greeted by some of Colby’s images as well as perspectives from and photos by other well-known photographers, all complimenting screen shots of the network. There’s both useful information and amazing images. Bottom line: Google+ is a great way to network, build an online presence and become globally connected. Colby Brown does an excellent job of outlining the tools and tips you need to do it successfully.

Not just for photographers,
Google+ for Photographers isn’t just good for photographers – it’s a really good guide to all of Google+. What I love about it is that Colby Brown not only tells you how the site works mechanically, but he puts his significant experience on the table and gives you deeper insights into how to get the most out of it.

Google+ for Photographers – love it!,
Telling the reader how to do something is expected in a manual. But , by Colby Brown, goes far beyond the minimum and tells us why. With personal stories and real-life examples by many pro photographers, Brown helps us to understand the reasons behind the settings.
Brown’s book has helped me determine my goals for Google+ and make the most of it. From learning how to post photos and tell their story, to including circles of friends and inspirations, to using Google+ to hang out with others or stay connected on the road, Brown turns Google+ from a mystery to an organized, fun porthole to the world. I love this book!
