I was first very exited about those possibilities but if I get it right I have to basically give up / merge my personal G+ Account unless I want to have 2 account with the same name on G+.
If I do so the Apps-admin will have full control over my account including reading my private messages, deleting my account... right? Besides trust issues I wonder what would happen if I leave the company? How do you handle this at Google?
- endtime 14y agoYou just have two accounts. But you have that anyway if your company using is Google Apps. I think the assumption that people have a work email and a personal email is generally pretty reasonable.
- BvS 14y agoSounds reasonable indeed. Nevertheless a little confusing since both my profiles would be at least partially public. What's your experience at Google? Do all off you habe 2 accounts and if so, don't you have problems making sure that your not work related friends etc. don connect with the wrong profile?
- endtime 14y agoAny employee who uses Gmail personally has two accounts, yes (I actually have four - personal, .edu, my pre-Google startup, and Google). No one outside the corp environment can see my corp account. From my corp account, I can't find my personal account by searching. If I go directly to my personal profile page and try to circle my personal account from my corp account, I get an error "due to domain restriction". So I guess the short version is no, what you are concerned about won't happen.
- BvS 14y agoThanks for clarifying.
- tonfa 14y ago> So I guess the short version is no, what you are concerned about won't happen. It won't happen for Googlers, but it will happen for G+ business users, since they (afaik) can't make their profile fully private, and it won't be entirely silo'ed.
- BvS 14y agoIs that true?
- Matt_Cutts 14y agoI have a corp account and a personal account. What I do is make two different pictures for my avatar: I use one avatar of me for my Google-internal account, and a different avatar for external use. Then I can just look up and see which picture of me it is, and I instantly know whether I'm on corp vs. personal.
- tpiddy 14y agowhat about rel="author" and authorrank?
- Matt_Cutts 14y agoI believe it's all linked to my personal account.
