Podcast: Introduction to Google+ as a source of online evidence

For our first attempt at a podcast we thought Google+ (Google’s new social network) would be a timely and interesting topic. Since the launch of Google+ just two weeks ago it has generated enormous public interest and several million users. Based on the level of interest and the features of Google+ we believe it will become an important source of online evidence, particularly in terms of e-discovery. We will therefore be tracking Google+ closely over the coming weeks and months and have recorded a short 30-minute podcast to supplement our introduction to Google+ from last week.

This 30 minute podcast was recorded on July 8th and features three of our team - Owen O’Connor, Karen Reilly and Lee Kelly - discussing Google+ as a source of digital evidence. Topics we cover include how to sign up for Google+, how “friending” works, privacy settings, the Hangout feature, mobile features, integration with other Google services, and several other subjects. You can download the podcast via Soundcloud or listen online through the player below:

Since this is our first try at producing a podcast we would appreciate any feedback, either in the comments, via Twitter (@CernamOwen or @CernamKaren), or on Google+ if you can find us there!
