TOP STORIES
- Google links Music Store, Social Networking
- Google music download store will integrate with Google+ and could launch it within the next two weeks, according to sources
- G Music users could recommend songs in an online library to Google+ contacts, who in turn would be allowed to listen to those songs once for free. The songs would then be available for sale as MP3 downloads, probably for around the usual 99 cents each

SPOTLIGHT
- A Fitocracy user emailed us:
Hey Amber and Sarah, I just started using a new social site and didn't recall it mentioned on the Social Hour yet, but I had not heard of it till the other day. It's called fitocracy and it's in beta right now. It's a social game you can use to to track your fitness activities, earn achievements, beat quests, and compete against your friends. Basically they make your workouts and activities into a game like FourSquare makes going places a game. I have some invites for you (Leo might like this as well unless he has given up on losing weight)
