"This week we’re blogging live from the Inman News Real Estate Connect conference in San Francisco, CA. Of all the presentations we’ve seen so far, the most entertaining award goes to Herman Chan! Herman hosted a session titled “I Heart Video Blogging” and from the moment he stepped on stage he had the audience in hysterics with his dynamic personality and sense of humor...."

Do you think all this hoopla over Google+ is deserved? Or is it more like Google-?

I'm still testing it out (albeit tepidly), but not enough of my friends/sphere are on it to make it a truly social experience for me....yet. I do like that I can categorize people into "circles" effortlessly (whereas to create "lists" in facebook is more laborious and requires more clicks).

Add me to your circle here at gplus.to/hermanity (To nab your Google+ vanity URL like mine, visit gplus.to) .  If you have absolutely no idea what in Carmen San Diego I am talking about, here is a newbie guide to Google+. If you're a convert, LMK what I am missing!
