The Basic Pieces of Google Plus

Tagline
This is a simple tagline that appears below your name, telling people in a sentence or two who you are (see Figure 1-3).

Employment
The more you enter here, the more likely Google+ will suggest interesting people to circle. Use this field as a way to present your resume to others. Think,“If my ideal employer were to visit my profile, which jobs would I want to show here?” You never know — maybe someone hiring might just stumble upon your profile some day and offer you a job!

Education
This is another item that seems to get fed into the Google+ recommendation engine. If you fill out your educational background, others who attended the schools you did will show up in the
recommendations that Google+ provides.

Scrapbook
Add as many images as you like here. This is a great place to show what you look like and even reveal your personality. Feel free to be creative here. These images appear at the top of your profile below your name. These images can decorate your profile and show off your creativity!

For each option you fill out, be sure to choose the circles you want to see that information. If you don’t want everyone seeing the schools you attended or have some embarrassing pictures (probably best to just leave those out, but who am I to tell you what to do?), you can adjust which circles and people will see each section you fill out in your profile. When you click Continue to My Profile, your completed basic profile appears, which should look like Figure 1-3 (with your stuff, of course).
