I really enjoy Toms post on Google+: https://plus.google.com/112063946124358686266/posts?tab=mX https://plus.google.com/112063946124358686266/posts?tab=mX Pretty balanced when it comes to fb vs. Google+. Also I think he his right on this one pointing out the power of fb-groups where you basically all join the same circle ready made for you by someone else. On of the few groups I am in was created around a wedding. There is currently no way to do that with Google+ (everyone can put up new posts which can only be seen inside the group without adding/friending anyone themselves).

I suspect that Google+ will launch an equivalent feature, I think there is some real incompatibilities with the way that Facebook is handling it and Google+'s current privacy model that they are pushing. If you share something with a group-circle and then someone joins the group then they can see your post; you are suddenly sharing with someone that you didn't actively intend to. Right now if you share with circles and the people in those circles changes it tracks the changes, but since you are the only person who can change the circles that doesn't provide any similar issue.
