Title: Anyone tried Google+ yet?
Post by: pandy on July 12, 2011, 06:14:55 PM
I'm still learning my way around it, but so far I really like the circles feature (especially the drag and drop aspect)! Watch out FB!  :cheers:

If you need an invite, PM me your e-mail address.  :icon_mrgreen:

I am loving it! TBH I've been ready for something else to come along and take over facebook's position!

Meeeee toooooooo!! I've been having fun playing with it. Hafta keep checking all the settings, though, because there are bugs that put them back to default (it is beta after all!). I hope FB takes it in the shorts!  :flipoff:  :icon_mrgreen:

I HATE CHANGE!!! I hope everyone stays on FB. I really dont want to start finding people and all that crap again. Ive had FB from the beginning and only have like 320 friends, some of which took me a while to find on there. There is nothing better about G+. Who the hell even uses video chat, let alone group video chat?? Its stupid, I dont want to look at your face while I talk to you online. Thats the beauty of if, I can be chilling in my boxers, with a beer and chicken wings. I dont want you looking at me. The circles are stupid, just add people as friends so it goes both ways. Not this you in my circle, and who's circle im in crap. It should work just like FBs friend request system, both parties agree. Oh wait they couldnt copy that because FB ALREADY had it perfected  :icon_rolleyes: Everything else, looks very similar to FB but nice and bland! Boo, looks stupid to me.... Why do we need to update our social networking media so often, find something that works (FB, duh!) and stick with it.

Does anyone know how to take down a website with a virus  :icon_lol:

STAY OFF GOOGLE+ (even tho I have an account......)

I'd be perfectly happy with facebook if they gave it a better name. I always thought 'facebook' was dumb.

Anyway, I just joined it last night. A friend emailed me an invite a few weeks ago and I didn't pay much attention to it because I didn't know what it was. I thought it was actually a way to upgrade the current google browser. I'll give it a shot, I'm not overly social online though. I've only got about 60 friends on facebook because I make a habit of deleting all the people off my list that I don't actually talk to on a regular basis, so it's not like I need somewhere new to store my friends.

The guy in the following pictures used Google + Hangouts to hold an impromptu Google Chrome developer session with his desktop overlayed so he could explain coding to anyone who wanted to join.

QuoteI thought it was a nice idea to show people on a Hangout how to develop Google Chrome Extensions, and it was really popular that I got many requests for it. From now on, I will be showing my development live on the Hangout in most times. So drop by and say hi, I will try and answer all software development questions on the Hangout :)

Google Plus, plus what? As long as it has Bejeweled and Angry Birds it'll do good :)
