It’s time for another time-saving tip. This week, avoid dreaded project status emails with this idea for utilizing Google+:

Manage projects — Trying to keep everyone informed on your most recent project? Keep the team in the loop by creating a Circle just for everyone involved.

Let’s face it: We all love working on projects, but no one loves reading the mundane recap emails they can incorporate — or, worse yet, receiving updates for a project they’re not involved with. Rather than creating yet another email list for your latest endeavor, organize the project’s team members into a Google+ Circle and share status updates via Google+ just with that circle. This way, everyone can get up to speed at leisure — and you can save emails for timely requests or truly important news about the project’s goals, needs or unbelievably speedy (since you’re using this great shortcut) progress.
