    Sent you an invite JeopardE.

    It looks like they're not letting people in right now but that will probably change sooner than later.

    A social network that people can't get in and socialize on. I'm slowly forgetting to even look at my google + page now.

    Thanks! It's saying it's exceeded capacity, but hopefully that will be taken care of soon enough.

    Got it, thank you. Yes, it's not letting me in at the moment. Hopefully they open the doors again soon.

    Someone sent me an invite but I'm not sure which one of you it was (screen name & real name are different). Let me know and I'll rep you.

    so those who have it, thoughts? can it last or i read a few comments saying its too cluttered, like the google guys are so smart/innovative but they overdid it and needs to be simplified. not sure what exactly that means...guess that they're trying to do too much at once? not sure.

    anyone?

    it's still kinda "raw" in terms of social experience in that only a handful of my friends have an account and there's not much "interactiveness" with the site. The "circle" concept is neat though.

    Thanks for the invite, Amel.

    Does anyone know how to find out if a) I have any invites, and b) how to send them? Inviting people on demonoid was a lot simpler than this.. I have no idea how to invite people or check if I even have invites to send out.

    I'm now in as well. I don't know if installing the app on my phone was what did the trick.

    Thanks again DarkHorse.

    ^^ It is not cluttered at all. It is actually a refreshing change from Facebook. I look forward to migrating away from Facebook completely -- I don't trust those guys with my data at all.

    I also am looking forward to ditching Facebook. Just need to get some more friends moved over to G+.

    Liking the sharing options. Photo quality seems much better, and ANIMATED GIFS!
