#7From how much of it I have used so far it is apparent that they have been listening to complaints about Facebook and other social networking sites. It is a far better venture than Buzz ever was, but even now Buzz appears as a view able tab and I am not sure why.
Though I must say I am having more fun causing the animations on the circles to happen then anything else.

#8With all the hype surrounding google+ it's a crying shame it's not openly available. Within a couple of days my interest will have subsided and it will be nothing but a distant memory .. which I can imagine will be the case for a lot of people.
Hopefully if it is any good, it will claw it's way back into the media spotlight, but how many people will try for a second time to sign up. IMHO the invite only plan will kill it before it gets any kind of real traction.
Edit: I'm aware gmail done well using invite only to begin with. But gmail was a leap ahead of it's competitors.

#9Invites are so bloody rare. Gmail was groundbreaking (and empirically offered way more space, etc) so people were going nuts for invites. This is, at best, a "bit better than Facebook". And much as people dislike it, Facebook is a pretty powerful tool, as opposed to webmail before Gmail, which majorly sucked.
