Five Bonus Tips• Click on a user’s profile

photo to see other profile photos they’ve used.

• Posts can be formatted in the following ways: *bold*, _italicize_ and -strikethrough-

• You can edit your photo uploads with a cool photo editor

• Create a “Home” circle that you fill with people you want to constantly check in on

• When editing your profile, you can click on each tab (Photos, Videos, +1, etc) - each one has a checkbox to show or hide it on your profile

Not yet - but soon!

Ford was first - but it’s not clear if they just used a personal profile

to create it.

Business Profiles?
