So no thread here about it, so I thought I'd start one.
If you've been following any tech related news recently, you probably have heard of Google's new attempt at social networking, dubbed Google+. Even if you haven't followed the news specifically, you may have noticed the redesign of Google, related to this new move.
What are your opinions of it?
I've never been into social networking myself, so can't really provide many comments. Apparently it diverges a bit from their previous attempt at Google Buzz, some calling it a new version of Google Wave (both of which died).
I can see benefits to both users and Google's personal information collection service to integrate your email and social networking, perhaps with Youtube and web search together. Primary question is whether it can take on Facebook.
