Alex brought up a great point, which he may have thought was a throw away line: "Let’s leave the pithy comments for disposable social networking services like Google+, Facebook and Twitter." This is exactly how I see and use G+. I use it to scan multiple stories and bylines, looking for interesting content and stories. I'm not looking for long winded blog entries. Those just slow me down. I feel the people who are using G+ do so the same way they do with Twitter and other social media platforms. They can consume large quantities of content quickly - which does not mix with long, detailed blog entries. The two are simply incompatible in my view.
