If you’ve been wondering what Google+ is all about but haven’t joined because you wanted to use your Google Apps account, your wait is over. Google+ has begun support for Apps accounts, giving Apps users all the Google+ features the rest of us are familiar with, and a few extra ones for good measure.
For starters, Circles work just like you’d expect, only you’ll have a special option for sharing to your organization, as shown above.
Hangouts have also gotten some extras – and indeed, that’s what they’re called, Hangouts with extras.
Is it just me or is this starting to look very Google Docs-like? Collaborative working in a Hangout sounds pretty awesome, and makes me wish I were on an Apps account.
Are you planning to take advantage of Google+ features in you Apps domain? Let us know in the comments!

Finally! I have been very hesitant to to anything with G+ on my “other” Google account because I didn’t want to have to redo everything once G+ became available for my main Apps account. Now I’m going to jump in with both feet!
Awesome! Be sure to let us know what you think.
Now I just need a way to merge my one account that has G+ with my Apps account. I understand that is in the works.
