G+ is better suited as a tool for your company to communicate with the public and your customers. Consider Yammer for internal employee chat.
Your employees are probably already using several social networks, so usually it comes down to explaining your expectations and then trusting your employees. Find out what they're using and how they use it. You might find they already have a solution for you.
I can't help you on the content part, but the first thing you need to do is get rid of those line continuation backticks asap. Powershell has a lot of methods for line continuation, here is a fantastic article that I always refer to: https://get-powershellblog.blogspot.com/2017/07/bye-bye-backtick-natural-line.html
That being said, I found a space after one of your backticks which completely breaks the string (this is why backticks are bad!). Here is a quick cleanup:
$FileString = "C:\temp\file.txt" $filebodytemplate = [System.Text.Encoding]::GetEncoding('utf-8').GetString([System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes($FileString))
### Part of multipart, serves to limit and can be freely selected, but is not allowed to be in the sended file
$boundary = "PowerShellBoundaryInCodeExample123"
$BodyAttempt2part =
"Content-type: multipart/form-data, boundary=$boundaryrnrn" +
"--$boundaryrn" +
"content-disposition: form-data; name="body"rnrn" +
"This is an automated test with attachment from powershellrn" +
"--$boundaryrn" +
"Content-disposition: form-data; name="groupId"rnrn" +
"$groupIDrn" +
"--$boundaryrn" +
"content-disposition: form-data; name="attachment1"; filename="filetest.txt"rn" +
"Content-Type: text/plainrn" +
"$filebodytemplate" +
"rn--$boundary--"
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Method POST -URI "https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json" -Headers $header -Body $BodyAttempt2part $response

Microsoft sells a similar product, Yammer, and it is extensively used by the company I work at.
I have in the past run a startup completely via telecommuting. There are some challenges for sure but if done right it is full possible to be successful. You also save the sometimes high cost of office space and all the things that come with it!
My company was a tech company doing online lead generation. So we had developers, marketing, sales, etc all working from home. The biggest thing is making sure people are on task and not watching Wheel of Fortune all day. So it is good to all be on Skype/GTalk to communicate via IM for short questions. For longer "meetings" we would use video chat/conf calls. All of which can be had via free services. Another good thing for development site is using a good bug/task tracker like PivotalTracker. Having daily scrums to discuss what each developer is working on helps keep people on task. Another thing we used successfully was Yammer to allow the whole company to post and communicate casually Twitter style. There are some other options similar to it so might want to research a bit for the best option for you.
Once a week the whole (local) team would meet for lunch and a meeting in a restaurant with a meeting room where we hashed out anything and enjoyed some social time together. This is a very important thing when working remotely since you may only have your dog/cat to talk to in person most days. It can be done if planned out and co-work places like WeWork are also a good option now.
It’s basically people posting SWAP requests. It’s more active than this sub and not spammed with fucking Toast.
Here’s the link Room Swap message board
Are you a member of https://www.yammer.com/askipteam/? This kind of question gets answered there, but they request that what gets answered in the forum, stays in the forum. I highly recommend you join and sign up for the daily digest e-mail. You don't have to use Yammer to do so.
We use it and I don't find it incredibly valuable but I'm also not so hot on social media either.
I will say, however, that the Office 365 Network on Yammer is a great asset and has excellent participation from a number of Microsoft people. If you have a question about Office 365, that's the best place to get answers these days.
This is not true according to these statements Jeff Teper made on SPYam ~1,5 years ago:
>Our approach is to continue to update our servers on our traditional cadence. We want to be clear the best experience comes through the cloud as customers will see many new Office 365 features this year. We committed to an on-premises release in 2015. We don't talk about N + 2 releases. We'll listen, learn and adapt to customers, partners and whaat is going on the market for the scope and timing of the next release but if you asked us today, we'd expect our general approach (cloud first/best, solid server upgrade) would stay consistent change in that timeframe.
And:
>“I don’t know how to say this more clearly. We plan to do future server releases. We committed to a timeframe for the next one. We never have communicated or contemplated that it’s the last one, and I’d ask you guys [to] help correct people who might make that up. Just we’re not getting ahead of ourselves and talking about plans, we’ve not made yet for n + 2, which we’ve never done in the history of the product.”

We have an S3 instance running in the North Europe data centre.
We're experiencing frequent connection errors of the form TCP Provider: Timeout error [258].
This issue appears to have been acknowledged as a problem.
The resolution is stated as:
> To resolve this issue, try to apply the following Windows Server 2012 update rollup in Microsoft Knowledge Base first: > 2779768 Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 update rollup: December 2012
I'm assuming that this patch has already been applied to all Azure database servers.
Is anyone else having this problem? The usability of our web app has dropped to zero on account of this.
Any suggestions on resolving this?
My favorite places are Reddit, SharePoint Community, and O365 Technical Network on Yammer. I use Twitter, too, but you need a list of people for that.
Do you use Salesforce? There's something called 'Chatter' that they do.
Jabber is an option, and a good one. Just not so much for Status messages (not personal status). But there's where a blog or similar works.

i would like to introduce you to yammer. this is used by people at my work across the corporation and i could not believe how much of a facebook clone this seems to be. I wonder if this was made in response to the ad.
This question would find a concrete answer in Microsoft partners Yammer groups from QMTH Partners or Microsoft Guys.

Found it. If you don't have access to this Yammer group, you'll just have to take my word for it (It's invite only) :) - the old blog post was removed I see, but the product terms should have been updated as well;

Yeah, unfortunately it doesn’t look like it exists anymore. Which is really unfortunate because it was super helpful. Someone asked about it here in the post on October 16th:
https://www.yammer.com/cerner.net/#/threads/inGroup?type=in_group&feedId=17353071
If your department doesn't get many of these event emails then you can try looking around on yammer (ignore the inspirational quotes) for groups to join for event notices - like Urban Farm, community events, humanities, etc. This is the info for science cafe if there is ever one that sparks your interest.

OAuth support for O365 mailboxes was added in June 2016: https://blogs.office.com/2015/06/10/new-access-and-security-controls-for-outlook-for-ios-and-android/
My write up of the app is also here, if anyone is interested: http://exchangeserverpro.com/outlook-for-ios-and-android/
It gets a lot of hate but try SharePoint. You might already have all the necessary licenses if you are Windows shop and it meets all of your requirements (calendar, wiki, etc.) along being self-hosted.
And if you are a Office 365 subscriber, you might also have access to Yammer if you want to go the SAAS route.
Which Yammer groups have you tried? I am a National Partner Technology Strategist with MSFT. We are really active in the Azure group on the Partner Yammer Site. You can post your question there or here and I will do my best to help you out.
> on-prem specific in the past year please post a link. That's a great question and I'm going to direct you to a great conversation on Yammer where the EVP of SharePoint explains this in detail. https://www.yammer.com/spyam/users/jeffte-guest?trk_entity_id=1488213311&trk_entity_model=User&trk_event=search_click&trk_result_index=4&trk_search_uuid=a489adec-5f8d-11e4-b9aa-0025901d4cb5#/Threads/fromUser?type=from_user&feed... If you need an invite please let us know. On-Prem is still here and will be.
In addition to Roadmap and Blogs (as an RSS feed in Outlook), I also subscribe to the official Office365 Technical Network. Either the entire group (noisy) or the ChangeAlerts group within. https://www.yammer.com/itpronetwork
I don't think there are any good mailing list services anymore. You could try taking a look at Mailman maybe. It's what the GNU Project uses.
I wonder if something like Yammer would work for you. There is a feature in Yammer where you can create Groups and each Group has its own email address which could be used as a mailing list: https://about.yammer.com/yammer-blog/using-yammer-groups-as-email-distribution-lists/. Might be worth looking into. It's free to sign up/use for the basic version.
Yeah totally, not giving a fuck means doing it for yourself and yourself only. Standing and shouting "I don't give a fuck" indicates that you've got something to prove to other people. You want them to think you don't give a fuck.
Me, I don't care what people think. I don't give a fuck.
PS: https://www.yammer.com/ ;) I was invited to interview with them before they were acquired by MS. And I was invited to interview with FB before they IPO'ed.
