Does anyone have a Google+ invite?

@hybridhavoc @Alice I miss Circles before Communities were introduced. We had made our own communities and they were great. You could share the circles you've carefully built (after starting with a circle somebody else had shared) and let others decide who's in the community for them. It worked very well until you could create Communities and people did and never came back to the already existing communities. @Alice@beige.party Serious reply here, for some reason... @robbiewt I just added tons of people into circles with people who had the same interests as me. And people shared their circles with more people with the same interest. I had more than 1000 followers after a few months and less than 200 on Twitter after a couple of years at that time. To me G+ seemed to work great. @Alice not a joke, this was taken in my veterinarian’s lobby a few weeks ago “Please review us on Google+” @Alice I was gonna joke that they actually still support Google + for business customers, under the name "Google Currents", but it turns out they have shut it down since I left google. @Alice ngl I liked google+, it was the first social network I used after facebook. Granted I'm sure it'd be as much of a fashy hell as the rest of google's platforms by now so maybe it's better that it died with dignity, but it was pleasant at the time @Alice sorry, I'm still too bitter over losing my precious Google Buzz community @Alice@beige.party I wanna go baaaaaaack :akko_scream2: @Alice I feel personally attacked. I moved so much of my social media presence to this stupid place. At least Google Photos fell came out of it and it’s still glorious. @Alice I would trade for an ello invite and also share my latest wave.
@Alice Google+ was honestly so good. It's just a shame that no one in Google's marketing department actually understood what it was! @Alice I think I did at some stage in dying embers of the last millennium…or maybe I’m getting confused 😉 @Alice I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Google+ would've won, if each comment thread was actually a Wave. If you remember Google Wave @Alice Does Google+ still exist? They pushed that hard about 5 years ago. I'm probably a member, but I'd rather decline my application to the corporate Mickey Mouse Club Google+ was the best social network out there. The ability of creating circles gave so much control about who you share content with, it was amazing. +1 |
@Alice@beige.party I hated it at the time, but the Google+ comment section on YouTube was kinda awesome.
