- GauntletWizard 3y agoHangouts, in the original form of "Real time, unstructured video call" was pretty cool. The rest was insane.
- influx 3y agoI thought circles was a great way to interact socially.
- reaperman 3y agoYep, that was a wonderful design. I wish it took off, and I wish it hadn't been a harbinger of the downfall of so many other wonderful Google products.
- kalleboo 3y agoYeah someone made a clone of the circles UI to put your Facebook contacts into Friend Lists which I used for a while, always wondered why Facebook didn't just steal that to get around people being worried about their parents seeing their party pix (back before the youth had 100% abandoned Facebook)
- vogon_laureate 3y agoTwitter has Twitter Circles which I think it similar. I'm not really sure how many people actually use it. I remember the G+ circles at least had the novelty factor but it still felt like an effort to manage.
