Are you skeptical of Google+ and what it can do for you?
I was.
After all, it’s just one more thing to waste your time on, right?

Great food for thought! For some additional info on how Google+ can be used for nonprofits, check out this presentation from a March 2012 event at Groundwire: http://tinyurl.com/8rel67q

so why does the +1 not show up in my search results? And can someone +1 my stuff if they don’t have a G+ account?

Jesse: Very astute.
Unfortunately, Google keeps tweaking. Since this was filmed, the +1 has now become “share” on Google searches. So board members and others can “share” the post, which is arguably better for your nonprofit than just a +1!
