it's a bit of a catch-22, though, because for the google circles feature to have any real huge benefit, you're going to need lots of... well... different circles of friends using google+. they won't. 99% of people will stay on facebook.
I agree. The majority of people simply don't give a shit about things that are different, even if they're 'better'.Uzique wrote:
i've already been able to exclude certain people or bosses or teachers or family members from my facebook feed postings... every single thing you post has an easily-customisable 'privacy' settings. this circle business is just a fancy way of rephrasing what facebook have had with their privacy groupings and separate facebook chat contact lists for years. it's boring. i just don't see why we need another social network. didn't myspace just sell for $35million dollars in a quiet flop of business disappointment about a week ago? everything is centralized now on facebook and i think google are going to waste a lot of money trying to drive a wedge into that market majority.

Ever used google wave?Ilocano wrote:
Google+ actually has potential on the Enterprise, especially collaboration. Sharing documents only to specific circles. Integrated with Google Apps. Project teams in different circles. Google+ would actually help me in PM'ing on a new project proposal I'm working on.

Nope. But that's Shared Space now isn't it? Seems too social. I need something with a feature set that can put similar tools together like Microsoft Projects, Communicator, Exchange, Webex, VOIP, development, etc, for multiple projects happening at the same time. Obviously, not gonna all happen with Google+. But maybe it'll help manage for each project for coordinating meetings, discussions, issues, managing people in the project, milestones and timings, etc.
Looks interesting. Google+ will probably get most of Wave's capabilities.tazz. wrote:

I'm liking Google's Music beta.
Gmail, ads, google docs, search .. those are Google's bread and butter.SEREMAKER wrote:
