I'd like to see: * filtering options for the main stream - at the very least be able to choose circles to include/exclude * a "muted" stream (then I'll quickly mute the 90+% of the stream I find of little interest - but can still access or unmute if I want to) * Something similar to facebook groups. I know this can be done elsewhere (Facebook Groups, Ning, reddit, etc.) but Google+ has the potential to integrate small groups into my daily workflow. More importantly, there are many people I know only because of a specific interest - and I'd like to only interact with them on that specific interest. All 3 of these specific suggestions are under the same umbrella: reduce noise while engaging in more meaningful conversation and information sharing on topics I care about.
