November 2015: the new Google+ desktop interface no longer has these options. Take control of your Google+ Stream! Once you've adjusted the number of posts you see from What's Hot and Recommended and your Communities , the next step is to adjust the number of posts you see from each of your Circles. Google+ Circles let you group the people and pages you are following. You can create Circles based on affiliation, relationship, topic or profile photo color or whatever other scheme you want to use. Circles let you easily control who sees specific posts and who can interact with you. But sometimes you want someone in your Circles, but aren't that interested in their posts. Or maybe when you check your Google+ stream you only want to see updates from your friends, but not any news. Fortunately, you can easily adjust the number of posts you see from each of your Circles in your Google+ Home stream.
