That Google+

From what I've seen so far Google+ has great potential. Overall a pretty slick new interface that I would say is cleaner than Facebook. It's difficult to gauge because of the relatively low user base though, plus the fact that I can't log in cause they're doing more closed testing or something.

One thing I find awesome in a very creepy kind of way is the mobile app's "check-in" system. It's a lot like the foursquare app that shows exactly where you are, but because it's still in beta I don't think people realize that their check ins are set to public view. Basically you can see what street they're on (even if you have no clue who they are or don't have them in your circle of friends).


tl:dr Anyone else try out Google+? How's it been for ya so far and would you leave facebook if enough people joined up? I know I would!

I'm loving G+. Its really the social aspect of facebook combined with the tell the world aspect of twitter but with a lot more control over who sees what you are saying.

By the time G+ came along, I had all but left Facebook anyway, so now I'm rarely on it for sure. The most interesting part of G+ is how you can do groups without actually setting up groups. Just put everyone into a circle that is part of the group and when you need to tell the group something, just post a message for that circle only.
