Has anyone been kicking the tires on Google+? I like the clean feel. The circles management is way better than FB friends. And "Hangout" looks like it has a lot of potential.

I just don't see it taking off though with FB already so dominant. These things are like flea markets. It is hard to understand why some take off and others, with just as good infrastructure, fall flat. Timing, location, and a lot of luck. Of course, if you were already thinking about clearing out your friends list...

It's gotta get people to make it worth while and it's got to be worth while to get people.

But I like the circles management. And huddles and hang outs look to be very interesting features.

And I like that fact that it's integrated right into my Google mail account, with notifications on that status bar, so I don't have to make a special trip to G+.

Yeah, I don't think it's a Facebook killer, at least not with this iteration. I like it better though, and would gladly use it exclusively if everyone else did to. It cuts out all the useless stuff like apps and just gives you a news feed, a way to share content, and a way to chat with others if you want to.

The integration within Google is nice too, you're a click away from Gmail and you can "+1" from any Google page.
