Google +

[LP1]

I'm might try it out since I like google, I never got into facebook.

 

[Nom De Guerre]

well if you need an invite, we've got plenty here

The best part of Google+ is that it reminds me of a CF Pokemon. Gotta catch 'em all.

its all right. I've been on there for a week or something and it just takes some getting used to. I do like their chat/hangout system, but having everything so integrated kinda with everything else though like my phone kinda weirds me out. I dunno if I'll stay.

Google stock's up over 12% in after hours trading.

If it's regarding G+, it smells WAYYYYYYY speculative for me. Far too soon to tell what it is going to do with facebook and with ad revenue.

It may be in regard to their Chromebook, a soon-to-be-released ipad wannabe that apparently is testing well.

Take that back.....turns out that this quarter they did QUITE well, with their earnings going above estimates according to the report released today (after hours).

I like it. I will keep it even if I don't get rid of facebook.

Does anyone have a spare invite?

I really love the privately shared posts on G+, much better than wall posts (that everyone with access to your wall can see) and PMs (since you can see the private post right in your stream, very nice/convenient). Still not loving the creepy, "I'm gathering all of your info"-ness of it all, though.

They have all of your info by now anyway.

Maybe. I'm still creeped out by it all. It's bad enough that if you google (or other search engine) me with my first and last name, I will be the only person to come up. I kinda wish I had a more common last name and maybe a more common first name, too. Not that I even use my last name on G+. Never mind me. I'm just a touch paranoid.

I'm lucky there are about 3 people with my name who are way more famous and prominent than I am so searching for me winds up with other folks.

Facebook is the same way, so idk.

FB doesn't have access to info on me through email, a search engine, and a browser, in addition to the social networking site. Though since I've already given them so much info through those other things, I suppose at this point it's too late to be paranoid...kinda like Paldasan was saying.

 

[Nom De Guerre]

Which is why I named myself Ted Theodore, gave a fake birthday, address, etc. lol not that they don't already have the rest of my information though

No one sends me private stream messages. BOO!
