Google+ allows you to disable comments and lock your posts, and you can do so even before sharing to the Google+ stream. These features work on per post basis, meaning (if you want to) you need to apply them every time you post. Disabling comments prevent others from leaving comments on a post (duh!), while locking post prevents them from re-sharing it or mention people you haven't shared it with.

Google plus, Picasa and Blogger missing photos

The important thing for bloggers who are new to Google+ is

DO NOT DELETE ANY ALBUMS OR PICTURES ON GOOGLE+!

What has Blogger anything to do with Google + then? Well when it comes to images, both Blogger and Google+ host their images on Picasaweb (picasaweb.google.com/). On Blogger, this hosting thing works behind the scene, as such the majority of Blogger users don’t even know their photos are uploaded to and stored on Picasaweb.
