Google +
-
Read about it last week. It looks interesting enough. I'm not a great fan of FB so maybe this would be a better option. BTW, got you 'invite' Csaba and responded.
-
Actually I do not know how these "invites" work. I just dragged and dropped some people from the suggested to some of my "circles". If that is an invite then there are a couple of invites but as I read, for the time being, not everyone will actually be added but they can "follow by email" (whatever that means...)

Hi all,
Another project in order to find an opensource alternative to facebook :
Cheers.

I'm in google+ though it's pretty useless on iPad.
-
Anyone got invitations for Google+. I saw the presentations and I'm a little curious about it.
Thanks.
-
Well, you've also got one
(Although again - I have no idea what the "effect" is when I simply add someone - although there are more and more people now that I know there...)

I got an invite but when I clicked I got to a page with a warning that my profile has been suspended.

What I missed in FB was that I cannot share things with certain groups I created.
you can show things to only certain people or groups on Facebook.
-
Yes but not custom lists. And if I only want to share with (say) my Hungarian buddies, I really do not want to type in several names.
@Pete: what address did you get your invite? And what account has been suspended? Your Google account? Is there any reason given?

Yes Gaieus you can share with just a custom list. just type the name of the list.
-
In FB, you can share things to custom lists, but it is very cumbersome (click on the padlock -> customize -> these people -> specific people -> type a custom list name). So in fact it is not intended to be used. That's why the FB stream contains lots of irrelevant posts...
On the other sides, there are several things in Google+ that are always exposed to people from outside the network (profile name, friend list).

I'm currently in a "hang out" right now. Anyone care to join? I think I advertised it to all my sketchup contacts, which is only like 19 right now.
So if you're near your Google+ account, sign in and try to join my hangout session. If you can't see it, add me to one of your Google circles and I should see that, then I'll add you to my circle, and you should be able to join me.....who knows how long I'll be here. An hour or two maybe?
-
wow, its a pretty lonely hangout I've started. We need to get more people on Google+. DaveR and Jim both tried to join, but Google plus is apparently past capacity at the moment, and it would not let them create their accounts.
Anyone else around want to join my hangout? Its wicked-awesome! Though, I'm AFk for the next 30 minutes while I go get lunch,
Chris

I got an invite from someone else but unfortunatly Google plus is full and told me to wait for release.
-
Hangout Fail between me and Chris. Though I was wholly to blame as my mic isn't working on G+? But other than that I say it'd be pretty cool to have a mass chat there.
It was hard to understand Chris with the Gimp mask on
-
Yeah, epic failure. Get a mic and a webcam next time.
BTW, I'm still in my "hangout" if anyone stops by.
-
Thanks Aerilius and Kris: I did not know this feature of FB.
@Chris: you do not really want Rich to get a webcam...

Is it just me or everyone on Saturdays?
