    Already said this 4-5 times, but...

    G+ has animated GIFs. G+ > Facebook. There's even a Chrome extension to play the "1UP" sound when you click "+1" I think.

    Facebook is...

    Posting from crappy phone browser, so I can't post a link right now. I think if you search for "1-Up for Google+" it should come up with a link to the Chrome web store. I can post a link a little later today if anyone has problems finding it.

    I forgot to mention it also replaces the icon too. I haven't tried it, so don't know of any issues.

    edit: Link

    It's easier to post images and videos and the mobile app is already better for the simple fact that I can delete posts if I want to. Facebook still has the familiarity thing going for it, but once I use G+ enough, I think I'll like it better.
