For social networking, Google lost "stamped"-Gmail,Google+, Google-IT information For social networking, Google lost "character"
Can you accept strangers, even if they do not know the circumstances of your Gmail email address, can you send a message, please? Today, the omnipotent Google this "dream" into reality.
Yesterday Google announced Gmail official blog, Google+ to further its social platform for integration with Gmail. The future, Google+ users can ask all other users--whether they are known or unknown--send a Gmail message. Even if the message sender does not know your Gmail email address .
We can see from the above, when a user in the "sent" column, enter the contact person, Gmail automatically recommended may be sent for the user object. However, in addition to the original user in the user's contact list, in addition to information we see also a Google+ contact person of such a table. Google official pointed out that, in theory, this feature allows anyone on its social networking platform to send a message to the user.
However, Gmail official blog stressed that users do not need to worry, because this functionality is not mandatory . Users who do not like permission settings in Gmail's settings. For instance, users can open the Gmail settings in the "Email via Google+" (send mail via Google+) options, preventing Google+ user from sending messages to you (see the following figure). For private persons may make objections, Google official stated, inter alia, this service is a voluntary choice, user can prohibition. Second, even if the user allows this functionality by default, as long as the user does not respond to messages from strangers on Google+, then the sender of the email address will not be informed. Third, Google's commitment to all the messages from a stranger Google+ (of course, if you send someone in your circle, you do not belong to the stranger), does not appear in the "important" message classifications. Instead, they will be Gmail automatically defaults to the social nature of information placed in the "social" category.
Apparently, Google's move is aimed at users with Gmail's powerful resources to further promote its not yet successful Google+ social networking platform. Since its launch, Google has spent almost all of his other service resources, to help Google+ to grow and develop. In order to be able to challenge Facebook, get more users personalized social data, let the users long for Google to create "integrated" platform, even if Google+ performance has been mediocre, even being referred to as a social desert, even if the privacy of the popular discontent, Google still continue to use of their users, services, Google+ and integration.
As a basis of data, algorithms, to serve as a fundamental, advertising as its survival strategy of Internet technology company, Google's efforts to get the user community resources was understandable, but such that "forced integration" and can result in users fear, distress, it really makes me feel a bit "loss of chastity". Fortunately, Google has a basic Internet practitioners of moral bottom line, all services on the one hand it may make privacy people feel uneasy, but the more important is to improve the user experience. After all, Google is not like those nasty rogue software service provider, we do not knowingly on "rape kidnapping" we, the users.
为了社交，谷歌丢掉了“节操” - Gmail,Google+,谷歌 - IT资讯为了社交，谷歌丢掉了“节操”
你能接受陌生人即使不知道你的Gmail邮箱地址的情况下，也可以给你发送邮件吗？今天，无所不能的谷歌让这一“梦想”变为了现实。
昨日谷歌Gmail官方博客宣布，将把其社交平台Google +进一步与Gmail进行整合。未来，Google +的用户可以向所有其他用户——无论是认识的亦或是不认识的——发送Gmail邮件。即使邮件发送方并不知道你的Gmail邮箱地址。
从上图中我们可以看到，当某用户在“发送对象”一栏输入联系人时，Gmail自动为用户推荐可能的发送对象。不过，除了用户联系人列表中的原有用户信息之外，我们看到还多了一个Google +联系人的推荐类表。谷歌官方指出，理论上这一功能允许其社交平台上的任何人向用户发送邮件。
不过，Gmail官方博客强调，用户无需担心，因为这一功能并不是强制性的。不喜欢的用户可以在Gmail的设置中进行权限设定。比如，用户可以打开Gmail设置中的“Email via Google+”（通过Google +发送邮件）选项，禁止Google +用户向你发送邮件（见下图）。对于隐私人士可能提出的反对，谷歌官方特别表示，一则这一服务是自愿选择的，用户完全可以禁止。二则，即使用户缺省情况下允许这一功能，只要用户不回复来自Google +上的陌生人邮件，那么邮箱地址就不会被发送人获知。三则，谷歌承诺，所有来自Google +的陌生人邮件（当然，如果发送人在你的圈子中，则不属于陌生人），都不会出现在“重要”邮件分类中。相反，它们会自动被Gmail默认为社交性质的信息而放置到“社交”分类中。
很显然，谷歌此举是为了借助Gmail的强大用户资源来进一步推广其暂时还并不成功的社交平台Google +。自从推出以来，谷歌几乎倾尽自己所有的其他服务资源，来帮助Google +发展壮大。为了能够挑战Facebook、获得更多用户的个性化社交数据、让用户长久的留在谷歌打造的“一体化”平台之上，即使Google +一直表现平庸，甚至被称为社交荒漠、即使招致隐私人士的普遍不满，谷歌仍在坚定不移地利用自己先用的用户、服务优势，将Google +与之融合。
作为一家以数据、算法为基础、以服务为根本、以广告为生存之策的互联网科技公司，谷歌努力获取用户社交资源本来无可厚非，但是诸如上述这种“牵强融合”并可能导致用户担忧、困扰的行为，还真是让我感到有些“丧失节操”。好在谷歌有着基本的互联网从业者道德底线，它所有的服务一方面可能会让隐私人士感到不安，但更主要的是完善用户体验。毕竟谷歌还不像那些可恶的流氓软件服务商，在我们不知情的情况下就“强奸绑架”我们这些用户。
