Introducing Google+

Just got through checking out the vids. Feature wise it destroys Facebook, but can Google flow through with the marketing of this service and actually destroy Facebook is the question.

like Wave...technologically speaking, wave was a nice product.... but it was built by engineers for engineers....will be interested to see if Google has solved their design issues for social applications..

edit... they head a top flight designer lead the design team.

What happend to the first Google Wave? Is it still around?

Google killed it... but they open-sourced the code.

This product is not like Google Wave in terms of the feature set..i just meant in terms of the possible complexity...but the more i read up on it...im growing more confident because the design isnt like most google products.
 
At first glance it appears far more intuitive and more useful than Facebook. It looks like attention whoring could be kept at a minimum.

But we'll see.
As far as my take on it is you are able to put people in your circle and then everything you do on the net or in life automatically alerts all the people.
When I look at facebook all I see is opportunity to reach target markets. Others see it as a tool to tell everybody and their mamma what they are doing and what they are about to do. My wife sits on Facebook and reads like 10 pages of updates....why? because she is nosy and likes to know everyone's business and I think that is the jest of the whole social networking fad.
 
NO. Bitches like Facebook too much.
Sadly, it might go the way of Google Buzz.

The same was said for MySpace. There are too many INTUITIVE features on Google+ for it not to be seriously relevant at some point. Google Wave and Google Buzz were not intuitive at all, and straight up, neither is Facebook.
 
why does google have to have there hands in everything

did they try this before & failed
