Google Plus Launches Branded Pages.
Google Plus branded pages are pretty much just like the Facebook Brand Pages. They allow the promotion and brand development of non-individuals, just like Facebook. We still believe that Facebook will win this contest as Google Plus is a bit to geeky for average users. IE: My mother and wife. They are barely on FB and cringe when I talk about yet another social marketing opportunity. But, we're geeks so we gave it a whirl. Like most new things, it takes a bit of fiddling to figure out how it all works. Although, it is fairly intuitive. Even so, we made a little tutorial for those who want it.

This static width (1000px) 2 column web templates uses a "fixed" position background image of a street lined with brownstone buildings. The background image is extremely wide so it should accommodate most monitors. Of course, if it's a smaller monitor, the content body will float left appropriately, down to 1000px.
We recommend this template for "urban" blogs, real estate sites, and any local business that has brownstones in it's neighborhood.
This template is available in the following formats.
