"It's too bad they can't make it behave like gDocs or gSites, eg: admin can control if docs or sites can be shared outside the domain." - Ryan Stanley

"Except if your Google Apps account has users under the age of 18: http://akedu.us/2011/10/google..." - Ryan Stanley

"it's a legal issue, I gather" - Ryan Stanley

"I was happy to see this too, although disappointed that it can't be limited to just users in the domain and hence subject to the 18yo age limit: http://akedu.us/2011/10/google..." - Ryan Stanley

"I know this is an old comment (was scrolling through disqus this morn) but.... Yes, "open" to friends only, just with the understanding that whatever segregation of Lists/Circles they want to use, their "friends" might share their posts outside the original circle intended. "OMG you told him that!? No Way!!!" I'm thinking teenagers here. For kids younger than 14, "appropriate" can be quite relative and I'm not so versed in the options for teaching social networking in middle or elementary school. Imbee? Togetherville?" - Ryan Stanley

"I manage gApps accounts for about a dozen agencies and schools. A tool like G+ could be a huge asset where teachers are wanting to teach social networking in a semi-controlled environment. I agree it's ridiculous G doesn't roll out tools like Wave, Buzz, G+ to their Apps customers first." - Ryan Stanley

"Yea we'll have to wait for bulk device updating and caching. But over the next few years, these tools will evolve as will the bandwidth." - Ryan Stanley
