How to find VentureBeat on Google+

Google+ is great for individuals, but so far Google hasn’t provided any way for companies, websites or publications to play on the fast-growing social network. In fact, some have already been booted off for not being human enough.

VentureBeat, however, doesn’t want to lose any opportunities to +1 you. That’s why we’ve provided you a list of Google+ pages for all of our writers (see below).

Reasons to follow us:

1. You want to be in our Circles. Writer Matt Lynley has one for “epic beards.”
2. Hanging out with us is fun — just ask anyone at this year’s MobileBeat.
3. Our posts are insightful and educational. Like this one.
4. You don’t want to miss out on candid office photos like this:

So, follow us, enjoy VentureBeat and get ready for some plus ones. We’ll start with our most active early Google+ adopters:

• Matt Lynley, Lead Writer, GreenBeat
• Sean Ludwig, Staff Writer
• Tom Cheredar, Staff Writer
• Regina Sinsky, Staff Writer

And here’s the rest of our core edit team:

• Matt Marshall, Editor-in-Chief
• Dylan Tweney, Executive Editor
• Dean Takahashi, Lead Writer, GamesBeat
• Devindra Hardawar, Lead Writer, MobileBeat
• Meghan Kelly, Assistant Writer
• Jolie O’Dell, Staff Writer. Jolie’s avoiding Google+ for now, but has some good insight on what Google+ is rolling out for businesses.
