Well, considering that even if you were invited within a few hours of the product launch, you've still never been able to actually log on to Google+ and use it, I'm afraid it's not really possible for the unwashed masses to chime in at this point. Unless you want them to talk about how great the screenshots look.
- stevenj 15y agoGood point. But I think that only confirms my point. Google should put it in the hands of the masses, and not industry insiders (though perhaps a closed network of the masses, such as a core group of Oprah's followers). It needs to be careful not to make Google+ an engineering project for employees, and instead a great consumer product. For what it's worth, I've been using it for the last couple of days, and I don't particularly like it. I wrote a few reasons why I don't here (see the update part at the end): http://www.chipsandguac.com/thoughts/googlesocial.html http://www.chipsandguac.com/thoughts/googlesocial.html
- btilly 15y agoUh, not true. I am not inside of Google, and multiple people in my social network who are also not in Google have been using Google+ in the last few days. The product has been very usable.
- jellicle 15y agoThe product for me, and for the vast majority of every human who has ever tried to use it, consists of a page saying: "Already invited? We've temporarily exceeded our capacity. Please try again soon."
- btilly 15y agoThe majority of people I personally know who tried, got in. But try again. You never know when you'll get in. (A birdy suggested that your odds are pretty good now...)
