Presentation: TweetKeynote: Google+ and building for the social web: context, connections and code
Nowadays people believe every app or webapp is better if it's social. However it's not enough to just sprinkle a few buttons on your web page or copy functionality you saw elsewhere. You have to understand your user's context. You have to understand the kinds of connections that make sense for your product. You have to understand the implications of the developer experience you provide. Then you have to make all of this work together as your product evolves.
