Google’s recent launch of Google Plus marks a huge move for the web giant. At first glance the concept seems simple. Who needs another ‘like’ button? Dig deeper however, and from a social media perspective, the little button may have huge implications. Not only will content publishers and businesses be able to use their friends and followers to drive more internet traffic via referrals, the ‘+1′ next to search results may be even more valuable.

The feature is free to both Yovia contributors and Yovia sponsors and marks Yovia’s commitment to providing users with the ability to measure, grow and monetize their influence.

I recently got introduced to 1% for the planet, a great non-profit that helps match donations made by companies around the world with environmental causes. The organization was co-founded by Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia.
Companies ranging from Patagonia to small local businesses opt to give 1% of their sales each year towards the environment.
You can help support companies that give 1% back here.
Check out the great video on their organization here:

There are a lot of great companies out there. I use products from dozens of major technology companies. Amazon has recently amazed me with their cloud hosting. I will ALWAYS sing the praises of Rackspace’s fanatical support and you just can’t beat Apple when it comes to innovation and Microsoft when it comes to market domination.
Google Maps - literally taking a picture of every place in the world.
I was recently passed on the highway by one of Google’s mapping cars. These guys literally drive around taking photos of every street – everywhere. Then, all of these photos are somehow put into a viewable experience online. You can actually see what a place looks like – from the ‘street’.
What I love about it is that it represents a corporate attitude of simply providing value to the customer. The fact of the matter is that I rarely ever use anything other than Google Maps when exploring a new location, looking for directions or even getting a first-hand view of what a place really looks like. I do not know if they make money from me, but I am glad to continue to use and recommend their company.
Google: They see everything
9-Eyes.com has put together a great set of ‘best-of’ Google street photos. You should check them out, and then head on over to Google and take advantage of all of their great free tools.
This Saturday (March 12, 2011), thousands of Jacksonville runners and walkers will gather downtown for the 34th annual Gate River Run.The 15k race the largest in the country and hosts some of the fastest runners in the world.
It also brings out some of the most hilarious costumes. People run the 9 plus miles in all sorts of outfits and one of those people is Carey Hepler, who always runs the race dressed in a grass skirt.
Bring your shoes and t-shirts!
Hepler is working to raise awareness for the homeless and uses the Gate River Run each year as a place to collect thousands of shoes and t-shirts for the homeless. He’ll be there today, so if you head down to pick up your race packet, remember to bring a few things to donate.
Just look for the man in a grass skirt! Oh, and spread the word on Facebook.
