sharakarasic says: I am kind of lucky that due to the nature of my (social strategy) job for a wonderful app discovery service I work for, I can justify a bit of hanging out on Google+. It's for work research purposes...;-) It really is! This week I've found some amazing apps being talked about there by the early adopter crowd.
