Well, I have a lot more to say about this (although for now it's a bit late and thus I won't be able to sort anything out tonight) but for now I'll keep it short and sweet.

This is rather evolutionary, and pretty much mashed up FB, Twitter, and Tumblr into one great big pot, separates them all, and allows you to use the system as you like. In other words, for such a simplistic system, its very versatile. It comes highly recommended.

If anybody cares to be invited, I can do if you'd like

Really? Is this going to be the new thing now? In 5 years am I going to be dragged to the cinema by the wife to watch a movie about how Zuckerberg sued Google over the rights to have the biggest attention whore database??! Or is this going to be the kewl techy kids Facebook till the thong wearing, orange tanned bimbos and meme loving window lickers catch on after it trends on another one of these God Fucking Awful social networking sites? Or worse still, am I going to use one of the few useful sites left on the internet, only to find that the first 60 pages of search results are links to Google+ members because, they will ofc, tune the search to suit their own completely and utterly fucking useless corporate agenda????

I don't nearly put enough trust in these kind of services to post my personal info on them, ESPECIALLY when it's Big Google that we're talking about.

I personally find facebook extremely useful for organising to see people in person, and keeping in touch with them when that isn't a possibility. Sure, there are duckface poser 'tards on social networking sites, but I see that as a problem with the people rather than a problem with the website...

Why, OH WHY, did I not buy Google stock 5 years ago. *facepalm*

Heh I've been using Google+ and I've got to say the biggest draw to it is how easy it is to separate your contacts into clearly defined groups and then to make sure you control who sees what. Other bonuses include the ability to mute posts I grow tired of. The fact that I don't NEED to see the posts of people who added me to a circle is a plus. And yes I am comfortable with putting personal information online. I know I will be getting ads on these sites. They may as well be relevant to my interests.

Yeah, exactly what I was going to post. I think I'll wait until it gets to at least 60%.

No, rather the fact that like a normal person around 50% of the people I know are female.

Looks good, but what in the world is the minimum age for using this? I got the invite, but I'm told by Google that I am currently ineligible for whatever reason.
