Google+ | First Impressions (and Free Invites!)

I already feel socially complete. (Maybe...) Know why? Cause I got my G+ invite from my friend.

For now, I'm enjoying G+ for the main fact that there's something else to do on the net other than Facebook and Twitter. G+ Also offers games like Angry Birds, Zynga Poker, etc.

Let me go over the features:

First is the Stream, which is equivalent to the News Feed in FB. It shows all activity of your friends. What's good about the Stream is that you can choose what you see and what not to. And instead of "liking" a post form a friend, you +1 them, just like those buttons in different websites.

Next is the Circles, which I think is the most important feature in G+. Because if you don't have anyone in your circles, using G+ will be senseless. It's equivalent to your Friends in FB, in a different way. It seperates your friends in "Circles", and you can chose what content comes to their Stream.

Next is the Hangouts feature, which lets you have video conferences, video group chats, video chats, and all that jazz. It also lets you watch a Youtube Video sent to you by your friends.


Sparks, is a new concept. It lets you find your interests, and lets you share them to your friends' Stream. Kinda neat.

Other features include Chat, Games, Instant Upload, etc.

First Impressions:


I've been trying to get an invite to G+ for weeks. And when I finally got one, I thought it was worth it. And with the features of G+ that FB doesn't have like Circles and Sparks, and Angry Birds! It could really be an FB Alternative, and could even beat it and repeat what happened to Friendster, but I think that's kinda impossible.

PS: I'm giving away 100 free invites to G+. For those who want them, just comment your E-mail Address below. ;D
