That sounds like an arbitrary limitation to me. Other social networks allow for organization accounts. Do you apply the same criteria to those networks or just to Google+?
- seiji 15y agoI just don't want to see everything turn into email again. I shouldn't have a message from a friend next to the message saying my bank account is overdrawn next to my Daily Jimmy Wales Photo newsletter. The systems must be able to split categories between "This is a person with independent beliefs" versus "this is a marketing organization with a focused message trying to manipulate me" versus "information, but not personal." Though, since corporations are people, none of this may matter anymore.
- thezilch 15y agoGoogle+ has exactly what you are describing. You can view those you follow separately by placing those followed into circles defined by yourself. Place all "person with independent beliefs" in an "Independent Believers" circle, and you can view only updates from your "persons with independent beliefs." The same applies to segregating "manipulators" into their own circle, defined by you and "tagged" by you. Note: you can place those you follow in more than one circle, in the event you have an independent believer that also seeks to manipulate you.
- ori_b 15y agoYes, that's exactly what circles are for.
