Whilst it may not seem it, due to its late conception, Google+ is the second largest social networking site in the world, after Facebook, with 540 million monthly active users. Google+ carries a much more professional experience, and for the most part isn’t often cluttered by old school friends and no longer active friendships.

Whether you’re after the latest on what’s happening at your favourite company or beautiful photographs to give you some creative inspiration, like any social network – it’s all about what’s on your feed.
