Awesome White Pages for Google+
- nostromo 15y agoIsn't it odd that Larry and Sergey don't seem to be following anyone? If you want to do social right, maybe you should start by really using your product.
- callahad 15y agoNot at all: you can readily restrict the visibility of that information, and it looks like Find People on Plus has opted to render a lack of data as a zero. From the looks of their actual streams, Larry[0] and Sergey[1] are both active users of Google+: [0]: https://plus.google.com/106189723444098348646/posts https://plus.google.com/106189723444098348646/posts [1]: https://plus.google.com/109813896768294978296/posts https://plus.google.com/109813896768294978296/posts
- chunkyslink 15y agoAccording to that there are no people using plus in Australia. Edit: Conroy probably banned it to protect us all.
- jessexoc 15y agoWorks for me: http://www.findpeopleonplus.com/Country-Australia http://www.findpeopleonplus.com/Country-Australia It was not listed though as it is probably under the threshold to be listed on the side
- awaz 15y agoThe statistics link on the page has the following stats: Male 698,703 (73.70%) Female 234,504 (24.74%) and top occupations: Engineer , Developer , Designer , Software Engineer, Writer , Web Developer , Software Developer, Programmer Exactly what kind of Social Network is it?
- bartman 15y agoKeep in mind that Google+ is currently in field test mode and thus has a special appeal to the computer savvy crowd.
- awaz 15y agoI am fully aware of it. The question is what would create the appeal for the common masses.
- jmitcheson 15y agoYou think the common masses were on facebook in 2004?
- awaz 15y agoI mean the initial user distribution was different and then there wasn't a strong competitor. The initial user base was the appeal for the masses.
- MaysonL 15y agofield test mode Is that what used to be called alpha test?
- runevault 15y agoI find it fascinating that writer is a top occupation.The other ones aren't surprising but that one kinda stuck out to me.
- soundslikeneon 15y agoI don't have any data to back this up, but I wouldn't be surprised if many/most of those writers are tech writers, bloggers and similar. Google were smart about who was let in on the ground floor. 1) People who have strong social graphs (on the internet); 2) People who will actively engage and explore new technology. Sounds like a blogger to me.
- taxonomyman 15y agoWe're working on improving the Country data. Long story. It has to do us using Avg country Lat/Longs and the unstructured data in G+ profiles.
- chunkyslink 15y agoThanks for letting us know man! I just thought no one liked us that much.
- taxonomyman 15y agoNo worries - we're Canadian and even OUR country didn't didn't make the cut Eh.

- taxonomyman 15y agoThx for pointing this out. We drew a line in the sand to go live - as you know with dev that line is always a moving target open to intrepreation and opinion. Broke for now. But not broke for good.
- dmooney1 15y agoHow was this data collected?
- iaskwhy 15y agoI ran through the list until page 14 or something and started to see so many people from Japan, wasn't expecting it.
- stef25 15y agoI'd love to hear a little more about how this was built. Very nice!
- websymphony 15y agoGoogle Api is not public yet. Just curious, how are they getting their data? Screen scraping maybe?
