I'm posting more to my pages lately, to see if there can be signs of life on that side of the G+ platform

  1. The path the water carves through the sand or the rock has always fascinated me. I can see how it must look when it's flowing and as it ebbs away, leaving only the paths where it changed whatever it touched. Lovely color on the mountains.

  2. +Brad Rempel If I share a post to a page or community, I generally don't share it here. The answer is to either have a deeper pool of image to choose from or rotate them by some period of weeks or months so they don't show up as immediate duplicates. I don't like looking at someone's posts and seeing the same things each three times in a row. I don't post in communities very often for exactly that reason. It's a shame that Google didn't make de-duplication automatic, and enable us to post in communities at the same time as sharing to our regular stream.

  3. +Jeff Sullivan While there is no de-duplication (at least not on the surface, although +Yonatan Zunger has mentioned it does get deduplicated at the lower storage levels), it IS possible to have only ONE copy show up on your stream. Go to Settings->Profile, un-check the "Show your Google+ communities posts…" checkbox. Voilá.
    I post to several communities each time, no duplication in your stream +Brad Rempel .

  4. +Daniel Schwabe I think that I have that turned on, but unless there's a "what you see is what they get" mode to see what others see (which i don't think there was the last time i checked), I don't want to have to try to visualize what I'm presenting others. And given the rate of change of G+ as times, I'm not sure that I'd trust what I can't see. It would be much cleaner to simply let people share to a community and a personal stream at the same time (comments could be merged, or we could toggle between or navigate among multiple threads associate with the separate posts).

  5. +Jeff Sullivan You may be assuming too much of most people, supposing they think about things based on anything but the superficial. I find myself going back to a photo numerous times to be sure I haven't missed some detail that will open-up the intent of the photographer to me and feel that "light bulb" moment that will help me understand it. I assume you study a scene from many angles until you "see" what you want to share before take your photo. It shows in your work. Thanks for sharing it with others.

    Yes, I definitely agree about allowing sharing among multiple communities, in fact I did suggest this to the Google+ team in one discussion. My comment was just pointing out that, in the meantime, you can still not pollute your stream with multiple copies of the same (unecessarily duplicated) post.
