MemberI just started using Google+ and it’s taking some getting used to. I don’t think it’s as intuitive as Facebook seems to be, but maybe that’s just becauase I’ve been using Facebook for years now.
Anyone else using Google+ yet? What do you think? Any tips?
MemberI just got an invite this morning actually from someone and to be honest I have no clue what it is. I’m usually pretty resistant to technology trends…. fill me in? I really don’t understand what it is/does.

MemberI’m on it! I have two people in my circle! Go me! lol
Memberim on it, and im still trying to figure it out, and im waiting for more of my friends to get on it
im really excited to try out the “hang out” feature – where its like a group video chat
its like a hybrid of twitter, fb and linkedin, from what i can tell so far
MemberIt seems pretty similar to Facebook so far, but interesting to explore. The feature that I’ve heard about most is categorizing people into different groups, with different limitations on access to one’s info.
Memberyes, the circle thing is kind of awesome. My husband actually had this idea a long time ago for facebook. Actually about 6 months ago I messaged Mark Zuckerberg telling him my husband’s idea. That you should be able to “friend” “family” “coworker” or “acquaintance” someone and that depending on what type of category they were in they would be able to see different things on your profile. He never wrote back and about 6 months later (now) Google+ came out with that exact thing!
MemberI have only recently heard about this, but haven’t been invited that I know of. I don’t know of anyone who uses it
MemberI’m there but prefer FB. Moistly cause so many of my friends don’t plan on moving & it’s not that user-friendly just yet…..
MemberI got invited but I haven’t accepted yet–I got freaked out by that thing Google did awhile back where it defaulted you into sharing all your Reader stuff, Gchat statuses, etc. as public. I am hopelessly backward when it comes to most technology so I just opted out of the whole thing–is Google+ like that? I mean is it secure? Or is everything you do public by default?
[Although I suppose if it’s anything like FB, probably not so much…]
MemberI’m on it as well. I haven’t spent enough time on it yet to fully utilize it. It seems kind of boring so far with only five friends.
Memberlol sounds like kind of a lot of work. I will probably wait until everyone i know is on it and bugs me to get on before i go there.

MemberI joined but I can’t figure out the privacy settings or how to work the damn thing in general. I’m not enthusiastic about it. Nevermind the fact that I don’t know how to get back onto the site since I linked in through an email….
MemberI signed up for it at the end of last week, but haven’t done much of anything with it. It isn’t exactly intuitive, and I can’t figure out if others can see which circle you put them in? I would assume they can’t, but I’m not sure.
I also only have like one friend on it, so maybe once I get more it will make more sense?
