Google+

Is anyone on? My cousin works for Google and sent me an invite the other night. I guess I was able to sign up just before they closed it off again. I have to say, on the face it looks like a facebook clone, but the ability to granularly post and view posts will win out over FB - you can filter your posts to only certain 'circles' (their equivalent of facebook lists) and also filter the view of your 'stream' (equivalent of 'News Feed') to a certain circle at a time.

The 'circle' thing, in my estimation, will be the game-changer. It will transform 'social networking' from the gimmicky diversion it is now into a powerful collaboration tool. Between the hours of 9-5, I can just turn on the 'Work' circle and filter all else out. So many unnecessary emails and IMs will suddenly stop bombarding me. Of course, this is only if they don't stifle its growth with too much exclusivity (like they did with Wave) AND my co-workers are also as much early adopters as I am (not likely).

I got in today. I've been sending out invites to friends and family willy-nilly.

I got an invite today. I have no idea how to use it. None of my friends are on Google + at the moment.

Cool.

I have no idea how to use it.

Blog, social media, etc.

None of my friends are on Google + at the moment.

I've got a few. Probably because I've been spamming invites to them :)

Anyone got a Lego circle yet?
