Breaking through the noise |
Love technology. I am really loving Google+ because of the engagement, diversity, and technical crowd. I really love the challenge of keeping up with all things Google, mobile, digital, social, educational and futuristic. I have a passion for learning. I help others learn and apply the latest technology to their businesses and manage a talented team. Former NKU Basketball player, highschool volleyball player, long-time runner with bad knees forced to turn to road cycling, heated yoga, swimming, weights, and elliptical. Have a great family with great support: a wonderful husband in Adam and we have two beautiful girls, 10 years apart. Favorite Trip: We took an incredible trip to New Zealand in 2007 with Active New Zealand and would love to get back there and discover so many other places. |

Custom URLs for profiles and pages: a first step
Your Google+ profile is a place for you to share your passions with the millions of people who come to Google each day. Whether you’re a clothing brand showing off your latest fashions (google.com/+hugoboss), an athlete talking about the game (google.com/+davidbeckham), or an actor recalling a favorite role (google.com/+hughjackman), your Google+ profile helps you connect with the people who share your interests. Today we’re introducing custom URLs to make it even easier for people to find your profile on Google+.
A custom URL is a short, easy to remember web address that links directly to your profile or page on Google+. For instance, +TOYOTA can now use google.com/+toyota to unveil their latest models, +Britney Spears can share her upcoming appearances at google.com/+britneyspears, +Ubisoft can share game trailers and videos at google.com/+assassinscreed, and +Delta can help travellers find great deals at google.com/+delta.
Custom URLs will also be available to people and pages worldwide, so brands like Globo can point readers to google.com/+epoca, or any of their other Brazilian publications.
At first, we’re introducing custom URLs to a limited number of verified profiles and pages. But over time we plan to offer custom URLs to many more brands and individuals, so please stay tuned!
