Nonprofits Adopt Google+ Social Network Early

Nonprofit techies aren't waiting for the full roll out of the newest social network to start figuring out ways to use Google+ to do great things.

Within 24 hours of Google's invitation-only "limited launch" last week, "social good oriented geeks had posted stuff on how to use it to make change," said Lucy Bernholz, a San Francisco-based blogger who writes about philanthropy.

Some early adopting social activists lucky enough to be invited to test-drive Google+ planned to use it to organize questions for President Obama's Twitter town hall Wednesday, she said.
