G+ was a fail from the start. They have a good few qualities but not enough to get users switching by the masses

KnowTechie3338d ago

Yea, you're absolutely right. However, one thing they did right was their Photos.

Stringerbell3338d ago

It nearly destroyed YouTube lol

SilentNegotiator3338d ago

They could have integrated G+ without ever making it automatic/mandatory/ obnoxious and things would have been fine, but they chose to force it on us and it only repelled people.

KnowTechie3337d ago

Yea I agree. When they started force feeding us Google+ as a mandatory thing, it killed them.

xer03337d ago

Damned if they do.., damned if they don't.

welly3003337d ago

Love g+ if it does go ill be sorry to see it go.

Smokeeye1233337d ago

Who the fuck makes a social media website and just named it after their company and adds a plus? Imagine if Microsoft made one and called it Microsoft +.

The name is part of the reason it failed.

subtenko3337d ago

Microsoft did do something like it... Microsoft Xbox One (minus the plus) because its a negative console,haha hahahahaha

I'll get my coat..

Software_Lover3337d ago

After it fails, can we please allow Google Voice to use 3rd party apps again? Can we please get those apps on Windows phone lol.

If your EX has a restraining order against you having any contact with her then don't have her in your circles.
