Well, it's not _quite_ automatic posting. When you save your Blogger
article it automatically pops up the G+ share UI to prompt you to post
it. Sure that's useful, but I disabled it a while back because it also
pops it up every time you make any small change to your posting like
adding tags or correcting a spelling error.


Something to be aware of is that the users at Google+ expect you to
post an image to G+ itself rather than a link to an image somewhere
else. For some reason G+ users (all 17 of them! :-) ) expect to see
local images and will pretty much ignore any image-link posting.
Google+ reinforces that too by showing off-linked images as tiny
thumbnails while displaying local content as big pictures.

And if you share an image to one of the G+ Groups, you will be
verbally taken to task if you post a link to a blog article or Flickr
page rather than local content. They like to be able to comment and +1
stuff on G+ itself rather than deal with 3rd parties, which I kind of
get, but it's annoying.

Google+ is too much of a closed community. I liked it in the beginning
but I don't have the time to invest in so many different little gated
communities.
