One of my real life friends expressed interest in Google+. :toot:
One of my real life friends expressed interest in Google+. :toot:
Finally got in. Took me getting 3 people to invite me but I'm in.
Whoot! This is pretty cool. Need more friends though.
I want an invite :>
Goddamn i love how google+'s photo page looks.
Also found a couple of pals already using it, so i'm pretty happy about that.
mine is full of fireworks because of Daijitsu, it looks fantastic
-its late-
Probably been asked already but I figure I'll ask anyway. How is this site shaping up? Is it as filled with little kids as facebook is?
I'm interested in getting an invite but I'm worried that it'll become facebook v2 and be filled with 13 year olds and flash game ads the week after it goes public.
You have to be 18 to get in now, and when it's fully released you'll have to be 13 or older to sign up, right now it looks like they're not going to have flash games or any of that crap in it.
Though that earns a lot of money so if Google+ overtakes Facebook, it'll happen.
you do realize that you have to add those sort of people to see their posts, right?
why do you have 13 year olds on your facebook
I'm talking about the general population from what I've seen, I refuse to make an account there. I've spent enough time watching my friends obsess over it to know it's a shit site.
After reading this post over again, I realise I come off as a real fucking cunt. :smith:
Circles make this great.
My Facepunch circle: filled with kids, for the most part
My "Following" circle: filled with brilliant people
My Sports circle: filled with not-necessarily-brilliant people that I can talk to when there's a game going on
So it is whatever you make it, at whatever specific time that you make it that.
Who are some people you have in following? I want brilliant people as well![]()
I want this to never go public. That way, 13 year old kids will never find out.
You can look at my list (my profile is linked under my post-count here)
Basically, everyone from Google. Anyone I can find from other major players like Microsoft, Mozilla, etc. Tom from Myspace (I just thought it would be funny to follow him, but he actually posts a lot & isn't a stupid person). Robert Scoble of Rackspace. Guido van Rossum (inventor of the Python language).
I'm sure there are still a lot of people I need to add, but I'm at 243 people in my circles right now

Done
(and ninja'd)
Yay, I finally made an account. Feel free to add me, Facepunch.
I've had an account but I recently got flagged a few days ago. I want to add some facepunch folk but, how long does it take to get unbanned?
How did you get banned? If you don't mind me asking.
"Your profile is being reviewed.
Your profile was flagged for violating our Community Standards and is currently under review. During this time, you will not be able to fully use Google services that require an active profile and your profile will not be visible to others. Check back soon for the review results."
I'm guessing a troll did it, but someone may have flagged it cause I had a fake last name. I've changed it already but according to the FAQ I'm supposed to get either fully suspended, or back online within 24 hours.
I don't like how you can see who a post is being shared with. The only time this would matter is if you had some crazy friend who was narrowing down who you were blocking posts from and telling the people who couldn't see them, but why does anybody need access to that information?
pretty sure you have a right to know if a post is shared since your name is attached to it
I am in love. Started using it about a week ago and I'll admit it took awhile to figure it out but once I did the simplicity of it astounded me. I love the privacy options, plus the ability to only share certain things with certain people. Like if I want my friends plus my dad to see something, but not my mom, I can do just that.
thought this was supposed to go public like july 18th or something, guess it got pushed back
Did you post a picture bragging about your huge porn stash or something??
-snip-
Found the right thread for that.
I have no idea how this works.
So, Would it be normal to Add Facepunchers on this?
lol
I've only had an account up since last night. But I already like it, even for a Beta it's really nice, the layout is excellent, it flows really well and made perfect sense. Facebook looks awful compared to it, feels like shit to use and is clunky. I kind of wish that the better friends I have on Facebook would respond to my post on Facebook about getting invites off me.
When is the full release happening?
So do I :v
Would anyone mind inviting me? I'm not sure exactly how it works, but here's my Gmail.
Grr164@Gmail.com
I'll invite you all in exchange for the OIFY password.
Waitaminute, somebody actually CARES about the OIFY??
I'm expecting rapture any minute now.
Could someone give me an invite? mikepinlac@gmail.com
I've seen a few posts here about people being suspended for pseudonyms. This is for you:
An ex-Googler (very recently left) / activist who has used a pseudonym for years (Skud) was suspended from G+ a few days ago for that reason.
She wants to collect data on name-violation suspensions. You can fill out a short survey here:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spre...JrU0E6MQ#gid=0
I don't know what she plans on doing with the data, but it sounds interesting.
Fuck yeah, you can edit posts and comments.
Instantly better than facebook and any other social network.
