1367081 2014-02-08 00:46:00 I am wondering if many of you use or know of someone that uses Google+ as their main social media site.

As an alternative to Facebook.

Please don't rave on about social media in general (as to whether you think they are good or bad)

Just how you think Google+ ranks compared to Facebook or Twitter or Instagram etc in numbers of active users.

1367083 2014-02-08 02:51:00 I use it though it's much of a tech discussion based system. paulw (1826)

1367089 2014-02-08 07:26:00 I don't really use Google+ much, have it. At the end of the day ... do I duplicate my post between both social media ... :waughh:
I find G+ not that easy to use, I find FB more polished, G+ has a feeling of a more techy type. It's mostly white, three columns on my screen with a 4th at the furthest right side of my contacts. Little arrow for drop down boxes. Even the +1 buttons and share buttons are white with black borders around them. Feels very like Red Hat Linux to me, while I have used/taught myself it feels very industrialised. Just got it b/c Google mail signed me up for it :lol: I would like to know some stats of those who got it how many of them used it on a daily basis. The last time I posted in G+ was maybe over 3 months ago :thumbs: I think that many people cannot escape it unless you purposely delete G+ from your settings as I did it for my parents - people get G+ automatically and who cannot avoid Google Maps even if they may not be using a a Android handset. The thing for me is that - if you sell stuff on Trademe then it recommends you add them as your new friend :eek:

1367090 2014-02-08 11:29:00 I ditched Facebook over 2 years ago now. Never been better! 100% G+, all the way... Couldn't survive without the Auto Backup, the privacy features, Hangouts... Haven't used anything aside from Email and Hangouts now either for around the same amount of time. Might sent maybe 1-2 SMS messages a week? Chilling_Silence (9)
