Default Google+ vs Facebook

Anyone in the Google+ beta? So far, I'm liking it more than Facebook. Better features, like Circles and Hangouts. And, like a lot of other people, I'm finding the appeal in resetting my social network. The office squid ain't getting on this one

I have been using it for a while now and honestly think it is a copy of Facebook, but with a lot less features. Sort of like a middle ground between FB and Twitter I guess. Not sure if I like it or not. I guess it depends how many and which friends use it.

It's definitely still a baby when it comes to features. But the circles and the ability to update / restrict by them is nice. Also like the Sparks.

And again, resetting the social network is very nice. I keep my Facebook fairly small but still it gets disturbing. Like the damn Farmville updates!

Yeah the Game Updates suck.. But you can Block those updates GOOGLE+ is a copy of Facebook... It just allows you to make "circles" instead of facebooks "groups"
Also... On Facebook you can choose What you see on your news feed as well...
And Hangouts? is just skype...
