I don't. They allowed public testers in and took their feedback into account to improve their service.
I don't think it'll be all that popular. Why have two services when you can just use one? One of which already has all your friends/family. I guess the same could be said about Facebook back when MySpace was popular, but it just seems like something you'd try for a while then forget about.

Google, the new everything.

when I heard this I thought all ages would be able to get one. I'll wait sure but I really want to try it out without creating a false email account.
...and now the post quality on G+ will be just as bad as FB.
[QUOTE=B!N4RY;32394814]...and now the post quality on G+ will be just as bad as FB.[/QUOTE] Well hopefully if there is actually an 18 year age limit, then it will stop some of the young idiots using it.
As I've said before, Google let the hype die, after all the people tried it out, got bored, and then went back to FB. Then when their friends asked if they should try G+, they say "nah it sucks". The first impression is always most important, and that impression was greatly overwhelming. I'd love to See G+ kill FB, but it's too late, Google blew it.
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32394864]Well hopefully if there is actually an 18 year age limit, then it will stop some of the young idiots using it.[/QUOTE] Age limits don't work anyway.
Bye bye Facebook you're going down [editline]20th September 2011[/editline] jk hahahahahaha
I don't think G+ will really catch on until all the girls at FB find out about it, and actually try it out, along with their friends. It's much better, but people that try it out will do so alone, which isn't fun.
cool but I don't know people that have G+
[QUOTE=DoubleDD;32396542]cool but I don't know people that have G+[/QUOTE] And that's the only, yet biggest problem for G+. Pretty much only tech-curious persons has been trying it out so far. Now they gotta make it interesting for the average Joe. Personally I vastly prefer G+ over facebook, but lack of media attention is gonna be problematic.
Too late. You dropped the ball Google.
I like it's layout, but I don't know anyone who uses it or will switch over to it
everyone I care for is on G+, facebook is just me feeling bad if I don't add random family members I don't even know who keep adding me
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32394864]Well hopefully if there is actually an 18 year age limit, then it will stop some of the young idiots using it.[/QUOTE] Says the guy who already complained about being too young to get in
I put this girl I know in my Acquaintances Circle and she got pissed because she considered me as a friend. I'm sad now :<
[QUOTE=Cooldudex;32399343]I put this girl I know in my Acquaintances Circle and she got pissed because she considered me as a friend. I'm sad now :<[/QUOTE] How does she know what circle she is in? I thought it only said "you are in a circle"?
So that's why I got access.
Available for everyone? Guess I'm not a part of everyone then.
