I don't think Google+ is aiming at your mom for Google+. They're going for people who use Google products hardcore: mail, documents, messaging, news etc. Circles is innovative solely because it takes the idea of a list and makes it manageable. Facebook works for mom and pop because it solves their communications problem with their kids. It's easy to share photos and post little notes at your own convenience. For people who are working and have coworkers and friends on the list, circles makes it easy to keep one separate from the other.
- mikeryan 15y agoThats fine and maybe thats a win for Google. But if the battle is for the most relevant Social Network you're going to need to get my Mom (or at least my sister) if you're going to "win" it.
- floppydisk 15y agoThey'll win your sister by being there every time she logs into check her gmail and browse anything Google. They already have content and are building a network around the content versus building a network and hoping users create content.
