Google+ification: G+ Posts Show Your Exact Location On A GMap

Google Maps BullseyeAs the lines between Google and Google+ grow blurrier, so do privacy norms. Today we're posed with whether we want our location made abundantly clear to anyone we share G+ posts with.Now when you post to G+ from mobile and you enable automatic location sharing or geo-tag, yourself a local spot, a big Google Map of your exact location is shown in the G+ stream on the web.The combination of exact geo-tagging and these maps give Google+ much more aggressive location sharing than Facebook or Twitter. It certainly enriches the feed, but injecting maps into G+ requires us to be more conscious of what we expose.
