I'm testing Google+ as we speak. I can confirm that you can add people to several circles. However, I haven't yet been able to test how people in those circles see an item that you share.
As far as I've understood, Circles are your personal aliases for groups of people and they are not visible to other people. This is really useful in certain situations, but it can also create some confusion when people are commenting and discussing about your photo, as they don't have clear visibility who else is seeing the photo and their comments.
- dirtyaura 15y agoOkay, tested also how Circle is visible to a receiver. It seems to be like I explained above, i.e. Circle is your private alias for a group of people. The receiver account was not part of Google+ so things might work differently when sharing between Google+ users. The photo just shows Visibility: "Limited", no visibility who else is seeing the photo.
- rictic 15y agoIf you click or hover over the `Limited` then you can see who it's shared with. disclosure: I work for Google, but not on Google+

- dirtyaura 15y agoIt doesn't show them for non-Google+ users, but I assume that Google thought it's a marginal use case in the long run ;-)
