[pianotech] Say goodbyebye Folks

[Jim Moy]

Laura, since you already have a gmail account, then you already have access
to Google+.

There's a black bar going across the top of your Gmail screen, which Google
provides for quick access to their products. The tab on the far left,
probably labeled "+Laura" will get you started on Google+.

If you have an Android or iPhone smartphone, download the Google+ app from
the appropriate store, and you'll get what Joe's talking about.
