1213296 2011-07-07 02:17:00 Made a pressF1 circle, added a few members here. So far it looks good, definately better than facebook IMO, it's just a matter of people actually wanting to change.

I know the 3 guys sitting next to me in class just said "Facebooks gay, but it works so why change?," this is probably going to be googles main problem in "taking over".

Especially considering Facebook's just announced 750 million active users :eek:

Hey Google+ folks!

As I bet you've noticed, we are facing pretty incredible demand for Google+ invites .

As Engineering Director of Google+, I wanted to take a moment to explain why we're growing the system slowly . First, we want to make sure our infrastructure scales so the service remains fast and reliable . Second, we want to ensure that bugs are fixed while there are still a relatively few people in the field trial .

Things are going well with the systems right now so we feel comfortable enough to open up invites for a brief period . Our goal is to double the user base in the field trial . (Sorry, we're not giving details about how many folks are in the field trial yet) .

So, in a few minutes, we'll open up invites again .

We continue to throttle invites, so please don't mass invite folks as it won't work . If you invite a handful of your most important friends and family you're much more likely to get these folks into our system .

Thanks again for providing so much wonderful feedback!
