    That's the second time today I've seen someone make that complaint and I don't understand what you mean by it. Posts in my stream seem to be in descending chronological order for me, just like every other site. Or do you mean showing what day a post was made, or on a person's profile, or what?

    One thing I like so far is how easy and natural it is to sort friends into circles. I'm very aware Facebook has essentially the same functionality as I've been using it for almost as long as I've been using Facebook, but the difference lies in the way it's presented and how you interact with it. What I found to be a chore in Facebook is a natural part of adding friends in Google+. In Facebook I only had the patience to deal with two different groups, but in Google+ it's a breeze to maintain plenty of circles. I currently have the distinction between Friends and Acquaintances, between Online and Offline relations, one group for family, and I think I'm gonna make language-based circles as well (Swedish- and English-speaking). I only hope they'll add some way (unless there is one already that I haven't seen) to more easily overview all of your friends and what circles they belong to. Maybe even let me filter out for example [not:Online AND not:Offline] friends to see if I missed sorting someone into either group.

    I only have like 15.

    I have a strange douchey sense of superiority because of it.

    Loaner is the new popular, after all.

    I actually want an invite to Google+ so I can play around with it. The more I look at that interactive tour the more appealing the circles feature is.

    The "Hangouts" part is kinda [leeza]snip[/leeza] though.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    That's pretty impressive. Though now that I think about it I've no idea how I wound up with 70 friends in the first place. Huge extended family, probably...

    ANYWAYS

    My offer still stands to everyone, message me an email if you still need/want a google+ invite and don't mind giving an email to me, haha.

    I got face to invite me, it seems pretty cool. I think I prefer it to facebook, but it's hard to tell without the same amount of traffic. Also, it needs a bandpage feature. If it doesn't get one that'll be a deal breaker me thinks.

    I was given an invite without even asking.

    I already don't like it.

    I'm kind of surprised that given the (mostly) Windows-using makeup of EffOff, nobody has mentioned one major advantage to G+: Security. Facebook is like the closest brothel to a naval base. If you go there (at least on a 'doze box), you're going to get infected.

    Nobody's got any variant of the antivirus virus from G+, and it's not because only *NIX and Mac users have migrated.

    People got viruses from Facebook? First I've heard of it. I mean, I know that privacy was an issue on Facebook but yeah. I figure that anyone who knows Google well enough knows that Google are no better than Facebook when it comes to privacy, though.

    I got that antivirus virus twice, but I really doubt it was from Facebook. As far as I know unless you're stupid enough to click those "Girl undresses on camera! CLICK HERE!" things Facebook isn't going to give you a virus or anything of the sort.
