Worth a read. I'm not dancing around any boiling pots with a bone in my nose, though. Unless I lose a bet. 😉
Thanks +stephanie wanamaker for the share and +Rod Dunne for the post.

Discovering the Lost Tribes of the Google Plus Ecosystem
(or why curating & sharing your own circles is mission-critical social strategy)After a week curating posts on Google Plus I came to a revelation. Namely that curating circles is a MUCH more critical social strategy for strengthening your bonds & engagement levels online… i.e. uncovering YOUR tribe.
This revelation came to me thanks to a community of G+ Bellydancers. In particular, a shared circle curated by +Sabrina Rakkasah of 160 Professional & Semi-Pro Bellydancers communicating on G+ thanks to their shared interest.
You'll need to read the full article [linked below on my blog] to understand why curated circles hold the key to Google Plus's & Your social success.
[FYI: Sabrina’s circle is actively looking to include more bellydancers, especially for connecting dancers internationally. Heres the circle details where you can connect. https://plus.google.com/u/0/106634103094186665612/posts/VkDheipcdQF]
[PROPS: To Sabrina's friend +Jason Wells for resharing the circle originally.]

lol – ok, no boiling pots for you +Scott Cramer … we can be the tribal elders. They just sit around looking meaningfully into the distance 😉 Thanks for sharing my article on.
No problem +Rod Dunne. I love stuff like this — please feel free to direct notify me on posts like this; I don't mind. Hm. Boiling Pot bet… +Keith Cramer would look awfully humorous bobbing around with a bunch of carrots and potatoes… {dangerous thoughts emerging…}
Sure thing +Scott Cramer… popped you into my VIP circle to give you heads up in future 🙂
If you liked this one then some of the precursors to this social/network psychology research was started back in Jan – I wrote a brief post about Maslows Hierarchy of Needs as it applies to G+: http://goo.gl/3gQa0
Which I then expanded out in a collaboration for Mediatapper.com:

+Rod Dunne Thank you much! I just popped everything into a new tab so I can read through it later today/tonight. 🙂 Tag +Keith Cramer this is up your alley bro.
