  • Free-flow communication: Site allows users to engage in the Google+ streams, users can comment, +1 and share the posts
  • Fresh Content: Google+ always shows the current feed of the embedded Google+ streams, so users will not show the same content in the site.

Google Sites give users to embed the Google+ streams like Google+ communities, Google+ collections and Google+ profiles. Once the stream is embedded users can easily go to the site and experience the full Google+ in the site. They can easily do all the stuff they do in the Google+.

The access to the Google+ embed depends on the access of the user access on the Google+ stream. If a Google+ collection is shared within team members and collection is embedded in the site then only members can see the Google+ stream in the site.
