Google Inc (NASDAQ GOOG) News: Google+

Web administrators can activate the new Google+ features. They can choose the unrestricted setting to make posts and the entire community visible to the public. Alternatively, administrators can also choose restricted to limit the page to the community only.

Google+ also allows users to start a Hangout On Air within the website by default. However, with the new premium features, users can limit Hangout access or customize certain settings for different parts of the group. Another big perk with Google+ Premium is that users can decide whether all user profiles can be indexed by search engines by selecting Profile Discoverability. If the administrator decides to disable that option, those who are not within the organization can view members exclusively through the email address or profile URL.
