Google +

[Xox]

Who already has google plus? Regardless, what do you guys think about it? From what I've seen, it looks like a better, more savvy form of facebook with a bit more going on in some aspects. (generally, less, which is cool) (If anyone has an invite, I need one )

Haha..I thought you would reply similar to this

Facebook and Google are pretty much neck and neck when it comes to activity. There was a chart recently that said around 600k new google searches happen in a minute but so do 600k status updates. But I don't think Google+ will be the Facebook of Myspace. Meaning the new social site that takes over the old one.

I dunno, the whole Circles idea is fucking brilliant; think about lots of people's complaints with facebook. Some things, only certain people should see. And most of us all have different circles of people. I have my DV friends, my chip music friends, my IRL friends, my parents, and work people. I don't want my chip music posts going to my boss, nor would I really want things between my family members getting into DV stuff. Facebook has that problem where everything that people post, everyone can see. I've gotten into IRL fights because of things that certain people shouldn't have seen on my page that I didn't put there. My friend posted the "Blowjob Girl" video on my wall. Turns out Grandma and Grandpa saw the link. That's Facebook for ya.

I've been testing out Google plus for some time now and so far so good. I like it.

God, I want an account.

It defiantly looks interesting. Currently I'm not on any social networking site, but if I'd much prefer Google + to Facebook. They'll have a tough startup, though, cause "everyone" is already on Facebook, while you wouldn't find any of your friends if you joined Google +.

https://services.google.com/fb/forms/googleplus/ You can "sign up" for Google + there. But don't get excited, the site I saw said the link adds you to a waiting list. It seems Google servers are overwhelmed: 'Awesome' Facebook announcement coming Wednesday - CNN.com

I've never been interested in Facebook or any other similar site but I think I might give Google+ a shot. The circles thing is great, and I'm always hearing people complain about privacy exploits on Facebook. I probably won't use it much, but who knows, I might find it interesting. Maybe. Probably not. Meh.

Anything good that google+ does that facebook doesn't will be added to facebook shortly. Its all the same.

Not quite. One of the companies concerned have the motto "Don't be evil", while the other ... well. And what was that saying.... Power tends to corrupt. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Not quite. One of the companies concerned have the motto "Don't be evil", while the other ... well. Both of them are part of the Bilderberg group. Google dropped "don't be evil" in 2009. Google (and also At&t) has also been caught stealing personal information while collecting data on wifi networks with their street view cars, which allows them to track people who are using their cellphones. You better believe that any information you put on either facebook or google+ is being saved somewhere. As a matter of fact, anything you put on facebook is also being saved by google in their total internet archives so maybe it is best to switch to google+ so then your information will only be saved by one of them. (thats sarcastic by the way) I repeat, its all the same.

And the collection of any additional data was due to error and entirely unintentional, and was later stopped and rectified. Also, (highlighted in red) I have NEVER heard of this, it sounds like BS. Source? I'm not making excuses for Google, I'm sure they've done various OTHER evil things, :O but what you wrote doesn't exactly ring true. Also, LMAO @ "Total internet archives"

I foresee this being about as popular as ping

I have a false trust in google too. I realise it's false though. You can't trust a large company.

Back to the original topic, I got in to Google+ and have some invites. I need to see if any of my friends want in first.

Also, Gavin - http://givingpledge.org/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-10870361 http://news.discovery.com/human/bill...ge-income.html Mark Zuckerberg has pledged to give half of his lifetime earnings to philanthropic causes. Don't think anyone who owns google have.

Damn the unbelievers. I put my faith in Google. I've accepted Google into my heart and it's washed my sins away. Though, I will admit on a number of occasions, I have danced with the facebook in a pale moon light. Seriously though, I fell in love with Google when they basically told George Bush to fuck himself when he requested all major websites hand over logs of inputted material by users. Yahoo and Ask bent over, among other websites but Google stood firm.
