Google+

[spoodie]

I'm on it, are you on it? It seems okay, very minimalist. I like the way you seem to be able to separate out your contacts, so perhaps work colleagues can't see your stuff only intended for friends and vice-versa. I'm not sure it works that way but that's the impression I get.

Although Google have supposedly disabled the invite system there's a way around it so I can invite if you'd like to try it.

Can has try pls?

[spoodie]

Check your gmail, you should have a notification of a thing. You need to click a link on that to enable Google+ on your account. Maybe like this: http://androidcommunity.com/google-invi ... -20110630/

Can has invite also please?

[mrbobbins]

Can't see anything yet, did you use *** ?

[spoodie]

They may have stopped the work-around by now. I'll try adding you two again.

[spoodie]

I don't think I clicked the button enough times. Do you have emails now?

[mrbobbins]

No, they must have disabled sending emails to stop the workaround.

WAIT!

I got an email but it links to the front page of plus

[eRabbit]

I did, but when clicking on the image, and clicking Join Google+, it says capacity is currently reached for Google+ Thanks anyway!

[spoodie]

Aw, that's a shame. You're not missing out on too much at the moment though.

[spoodie]

As you're not going to see it this is the pic I tried to share

[mrbobbins]

The email contained the fish so I got a small glimpse of what I'm missing out on.

I've been screwing around with my profile and circles and stuff. Seems pretty promising so far.

[spoodie]

I do like the concept of circles, making your stuff only visible to certain people. Good for splitting up work and personal.

[Nickface]

I've already preemptively made a 5punk circle. Because god knows what kinds of crap I'd share with all of you that I wouldn't want anyone else I know seeing.

If/when invites work/are available, I'd like one, my boss might be interested as we develop apps for facebook.

[spoodie]

I think I'd rather not have Facebook style apps on Google+.

[Grimmie]

Me either, but they do already have the iGoogle applications, so it's a possibility.

[Stoat]

There are apparently mentions of Google Games in the codes, so I guess that stuff will appear at some point. So long as its permissions are handled better than Facebook has/does, it shouldn't be a problem.

[spoodie]

Yeah I suppose it's Facebook I have the problem with, not the apps as such. Hopefully Google will be slightly less evil about them.
