Well shit. Then NOBODY uses it. I like the way my google pics work. I take my pics and they are my pics on my site. If I want to share a pic or an album I just send the link to who I want.

Oh. Well, he's not exactly known for lying, so I guess he got lucky.

That he just went to the site and joined instantly. That person probably just requested an invitation.

Maybe he has just never been caught.

Or maybe you have several. Rather than just approaching it as an independent site asking for whatever e-mail you care to provide and granting you a brand new account. Could be wrong. Also doubt the whole "circles" thing. People are narcissists, they want to talk to the whole group and be able to excuse it as just being part of the program. Let them select certain groups and it suddenly becomes e-mail distribution lists.
I strongly disagree. I censor myself pretty heavily on facebook because there are things I'd be more than willing to say to my friends, but not to my parents.

Kind of. The problem with FB is that it's mostly an "all or nothing" security system. It's easy to make it so that certain people can't see ANY of your pics, but it's much harder to control whether people can see individual types of pics.

I get that, and I do the same. But even the things you are willing to say to your friends - isn't that a pretty broad range? If it's a really tight circle then I almost don't need social media. A quick e-mail with a few friends will do.

I'll give it a chance. I just think that trying to decide how to group and classify people will end up being another layer of complication. Could feel different after using, though. I'm rooting for it to be good.

They've been that way for a long time now. If Google wanted to take over the US, they pretty much could eventually.... Demographic information on levels the government can't likely compete...

well...if someone has an extra invite around it would be muy apreciado.

teedubya 07-01-2011 01:11 AM
If you want one, PM me your gmail address. That's how the invites work. I've played with it for 2 days now, and it's interesting... the circles are a great idea.

This is from a google slideshare last year... if you saw this, you knew this was coming.
