    I just...never really bothered to even look into Google+. I have Facebook and Twitter, so why do I really need G+? I admit, Facebook isn't the greatest, but for keeping up with friends from school/work/otherwise, it's pretty much the "standard." I can probably count the number of my friends that have G+ on one hand, so there's really been no need for me to think about getting one.

    I have been using Google+ now for around a month and I am well impressed with it, I just wish that more people used it. I love the settings find them much better than facebook for their settings, so much easier to use.

    I'm not much of a social networking person as it is, I doubt I'd be looking forward to getting G+ anytime soon. Its taken me a lot to even get a facebook and get accustomed to it, G+ is on a whole other level there, really.

    While it is possible that it may or may not be better than facebook or has some features that stand out better and whatnot, regardless, I don't think I'll really be interested in it.

    I love Google+ so much. I have like 600 bronies on it and I can read each feed from each circle separately. :D

    I don't really use G+ at all, I find. Especially since I think my app broke since it won't show me any updates in my circles after August 4th, despite it working just fine as late as the 24th.

    I just don't find there's anything on it that I can't get outside of Facebook and Twitter. :/ So I have no use for it.

    So Google+ is open to the general public now. Thoughts?

    I haven't gotten one yet - maybe once I have more friends with one, but right now I have Facebook and Twitter (even if the new Facebook feed is horrid).

    I'm still pretty love/hate about it. I wouldn't be so bold as to say that Facebook is the official social network of the world, but it's pretty damn close. :P There's all kinds of social networking sites out there right now, but when it all comes down to it everyone still has Facebook and uses it as a primary. It's kinda just become self official. =\

    Got one. I have three friends on it and that will probably be it. It's just not gonna pick up like Facebook has and I doubt it will. It will most likely fade away like MySpace did or Ping from Apple.

    I honestly haven't heard anything about G+ since like, a month after it came out. Seemed to be a pretty short-lived fad, though I know there are people who still use it.

    They're trying to integrate it with Youtube but I still don't really see it going anywhere. I think it makes some sense as a hub for Google services, though.
