Stream by clicking the small drop-down arrow next to it, then selecting “Mute
this post.” That’ll also keep you from receiving any future notifications about
the item.

+20> You can choose who you chat with. Identify the Circles,
with which you want to chat with. These people will be able to see you online,
and chat with you.
+22> You can use Google+ to save posts and other
important content. Go to your Circles page and search for your own name. Add
yourself to a new circle called “.Save” (or something to that effect). Then,
anytime you see something in your Google+ Stream that you want to save, just
share it with your .Save circle. You can browse through your saved stuff by
opening your .Save stream
+23> Want certain circles to show up higher than others
in the main Stream list? Circles whose names begin with a period (like “.Save”)
will always shoot up to the top. Names starting with an asterisk (like
“*Important”) will appear next.
+24> On the Circles page, hover your mouse over a circle that has at
least 30 people in it, then scroll with your mouse’s scroll wheel. The faces in
the circle will rotate around like a carousel, giving you a nice graphical way
to see who’s inside.
+25> You could chat with anyone even if they are not in
your circles. simply copy their email id to the ‘search people box’ in chat
panel. of-course they need to accept your invitation.
+26> You can edit photos right within Google+. Open any
image from the “Photos” tab of your profile, then click the drop-down box
labeled “Actions” and select “Edit photo.” There, you’ll find a variety of
options for color and contrast correction as well as special effects.
+27> If you often find yourself browsing in another tab and constantly
switching back to Google+ to look for new notifications? Install the G+ Count Chrome extension. It puts your current notification
count in the front of your Google+ page title so you can always see it at a
glance.
+28> For even G+ browser integration, give the Surplus Chrome extension a whirl. It adds a live Google+
notification count to the top of your browser; you can even click the button to
access your notifications right there, without having to open Google+ at all.
