Google Plus Now Available for Google App Users

I am a big fan of Google Plus and have been a member almost since the beginning. Anyone with a personal Google account could join Google Plus since the middle of September.

I have to admit I am not holding my breath. I have seen too

Ford and Gogo Add to Inflight Entertainment

Travelling by air can be pretty dull - you're jammed into a metal tube with nowhere to go even if you could get out of your seat. Inflight entertainment has evolved from one or two screens for the whole cabin to multichannel personal media players in seat headrests, which certainly helps to alleviate the boredom.
