Only annoying thing is, now they have changed the video chat and you have to invite people to chat. And I don't remember everyone on there's email address.

Yes I know that but I don't like FB...where people get the time to write down every little boring thing in their life amazes me & that they have hundreds of friends that want to read it...yawn.

I use it to message people & catch up with family not near by...I don't add photos to it any more.

To me google+ is the up market version of FB, looks better & suits my needs...but if I was into FB & spent hrs on there then I would probably not move over...lucky I don't have that issue ]]> Tue, 09 Aug 2011 07:47:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1373290&title=google-plus#1373290 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1373223&title=google-plus#1373223 Author: Daizy

DH and I both have it, but like others have said, until people make the move from FB it just doesn't have the same appeal.
It does have some great features and is much more upmarket than FB]]> Mon, 08 Aug 2011 20:29:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1373167&title=google-plus#1373167 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372635&title=google-plus#1372635 Author: escadachic

I have Google+ but don't go on it much. I guess because I don't have many friends and family on there. So it's kind of boring for me at the moment. But I so do think it's got heaps going for it. Especially the video chat!]]> Sun, 07 Aug 2011 20:55:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372635&title=google-plus#1372635 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372399&title=google-plus#1372399 Author: jazzy

DH got rid of his FB ages ago & was one of the first to get G+ & set me up also..but I have not got into it to much but I do send him pics of the kids as one of our groups is just him & me so no one else sees what we say...love that.

I think it looks way better than FB & because you can make up your own groups you can keep things separate which is so appealing for privacy. I don't use FB much, don't like it & some of the things I read makes me think why would you put that out there??? A young family member is on FB & the verbal crap that spills out for everyone to read is a worry...no wonder he can't get a job as all a potential employer has to do is google him & read the sh*t he says

I have DS1 (10yr) friends from school requesting to be friends with me...like I am going to let a bunch of kids read what I do or have access to what my family say. DS1 wants a FB account & no way is he going to get one but he can have a G+ when he is ready.

Google+ will be more popular I think but maybe with those who don't like FB...& I don't care if they don't have games on it, I don't have time to sit at the computer & play games day in day out.

Go Google + ]]> Sun, 07 Aug 2011 11:12:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372399&title=google-plus#1372399 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372378&title=google-plus#1372378 Author: Raspberryjam

Yep, me too. One friend is trying to sell me on it for work use, but I'm not convinced.

I am, have not really used it yet...will one day. I hate FB & for me think G+ is more me with the privacy. I also like the groups you can make so you can share what you want with whoever you want. ]]> Sat, 06 Aug 2011 18:34:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372225&title=google-plus#1372225 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40113&PID=1372114&title=google-plus#1372114 Author: Raspberryjam
