The problem with it right now is there isn't enough people on Google+ to make it a viable option.

Then get started on spamming invites.

I've got 33 people in my circles, and 38 has got me in their circles.

Not too far from what I've got on Facebook.

Getting an invite for this thing is tougher then curing AIDS

PM me your email.

As said before, if you want in PM me your e-mail and you'll be in.

I've been using it and it's really great. The UI is a little confusing since most of the text and buttons hang lose without any borders, but the way you share your comments is really smart. You can specify who you want to see your posts and create different circles. I've created a circle for just co-workers, and a club I go to. And when you stream posts, you can specify that only THAT circle can see the post.

**NPerez** · 14th July 2011

Does anyone know how to exclude a circle from my main stream (if possible)? I have a "Frequent Posters" circle who monopolize the shit out of my main stream

Rallepower · 15th July 2011

I don't think that is possible yet. They should really add checkmarks for every circle to the left to check what you want to see and not.

**The Baconator** · 15th July 2011

G+ does need events and fan pages like FB has though.

**Agoat** · 15th July 2011

I love how it integrates into Gmail (and other Google features)

Also, if anyone wants an invite, PM me too.

If you share something to a circle, and one of the people in that circle has not added you to one of their circles, will it show up in their stream?

Probably.

Anyway, not sure if G+ needs wall posts or not.

no. circles are used for following and for deciding who gets to see what

if you aren't in someone's circle, then they aren't following you at all, which means they won't see your posts in their stream.

PM for invites if you want em.

From what I understand the post you shared will pop up in their Incoming sub-stream until they add you to one of their circles.

**Xonax** · 16th July 2011

Does anyone know if there is a way so I don't have to switch gmail accounts for google+? The one I signed up for is my very first gmail, but i then made a new gmail, which signs me in all the time. I don't want to switch gmails to use google+.

If you do multi-login on Gmail, that at least makes it a load easier to switch between them.

**Hana-San** · 16th July 2011

I've had several people say that they invited me, but I haven't received an email or anything at all. I'm wondering what's wrong with me that it doesn't want to work.

Albo · 16th July 2011

Is there anyway that I can join? I got an invite, but it says that they are at max capacity. Is there a trick that I can do to get in?

invited you to join him on Google+ Learn more about Google+
The Google+ project is currently working out all the kinks with a small group of testers. If you're not able to access Google+, please check back again soon.

invites have been moved to their own thread, I don't have the link since almost everything on here is in arabic making navigation piss confusing

Wait like a day or a couple hours.

That sucks. I know I stopped reading about it when the site said you couldn't get in, even with an invite. But two days ago I saw people getting in within the past few hours and thought "waaaaaait a minute." Sure enough, I asked my friend for one and promptly got in.

I'd think you'd get an email though. How well do you know the people that have invited you?

**Jackald** · 16th July 2011

I'm getting the bullshit "This feature is not available for your account.
You must be over a certain age to use this feature." despite being 17.

You got to be 18 to use G+??

**NPerez** · 16th July 2011

This is killing my productivity. I've set new rules during work hours: No G+ on the work PC - only on my laptop which sits on the side.

Yup. For now, at least. It makes sense, because it's still in development, and if there were a privacy mishap, it would be better for that to happen to adults than to someone's kid. Not sure if that's their reasoning, but I'm sure there's even more to it than that.

Suppose it makes sense. Irritating that I can't change it unless I make a different account and get invitedo n that.

that pretty much was their reasoning behind it
