Visual Artists are Loving Google+

Here is a quick list for why so many visual artists are loving Google+ (summarized from an article in The Atlantic Magazine):

• Allows for instant feedback on work - Circles helps share 'works in progress' to a select group – allowing for feedback without exposing the work publicly
• Visibility and traffic exceeds both Facebook and Twitter and artist’s personal web sites
• Google+ image display (transparent black background) helps artwork shine
• It’s a balance between the pros and cons of Facebook and Twitter. On Facebook it’s not the norm to follow strangers, however, eventhough this is okay on Twitter - Twitter is not the best platform for displaying pictures or larger albums of work.
