It's the tail wagging the dog, really. Every now and again, Gmail wants me to join Google Plus while giving them: - My real name - My age (WHY THE FCUK REALLY?) - My location Why? So that they can broadcast all of this information on a Google Plus page. What a bunch of fools. Google: I have no love for you. I like how Gmail and Google search work^. But no love or loyalty for you as a company. I will drop you as soon as someone better (or a workable out-of-the-box privately hosted solution) comes along. ^And you are pushing your luck with the new Gmail compose UI.
