Sikbug Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Hmmm... I have no access to invites as far as I can tell. Damn shame! I've been sending them out all day, I thought they opened the flood gates on it or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacky McSlackAss Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I'm enjoying it so far. Had a hangout with a few friends earlier today, it's a lot quieter than facebook and thats why I like it so far. Doesn't have any of the spam and junk, plus a much cleaner look.

If Google+ stays away from all that extra crap, alot of people will be willing to change over. And the hangouts are the coolest thing ever.

The reason everyone ditched Myspace for Facebook was barely any spam and a clean look. Facebook is still pretty clean but they've just added so much unnecessary ****.

Sikbug Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I've sent out 50-60 invites, are there really people that can't send them out anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCranon21 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Wish I could get an invite from someone. This could be an alternative for me, since I can't log into FB at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulane Skins Fan Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I just signed up, and I never had Facebook at any point. Let me start with, "I don't get it." Got about 24 hours before I give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulane Skins Fan Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 What don't you get? I think its pretty awesome What the difference between google+ and gmail? Not just the format... I can see that. What does it offer that gmail doesn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 What the difference between google+ and gmail? Google+ is more a social media site where Gmail is just email. Yeah they both have GChat integrated, but you can't do anything besides email from Gmail. With Google+ you can share stuff with your friends quicker and easier.

I had this problem when people tried to get me onto Facebook too... I just don't understand what these sites do that email doesn't? I can email photos to everyone, I can chat with anyone, I can voice talk with anyone over gmail.... I'm gonna play around with this a little bit, but I'm not sure I really get what I'm supposed to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of emailing your pictures out to 10 different people, you can throw them up on Google+ and they can all see them. The one thing Google+ has that is really nice is group video chat. You can't do that on Gmail of Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticksboi05 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 ix - Yeah that isn't going to happen anytime soon. Getting 750 million to switch is easier said than done. Seriously do we need more social f-ing networking sites? Good for Google though to make even more bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
