man if they streamline this up a bit, it is TOTALLY a facebook killer.

 

slightly off topic, anyone tried google music yet?

I've been gradually converting my thousands of flacs to 320 kbps mp3s (using the handy dandy dbpoweramp batch converter) and uploading them to google music. the uploading is going slooow, but I'm sure that's down to my shitty isp. you can upload flacs, but it wouldn't be worth it since they transcode them to 320s anyway.

Not just you, it wouldn't let me send messages to several peoples' emails, even after putting them in circles.

It still hasn't passed me the thing that chen sent me.

HAH, if they fuck up this roll out, people will lose interest. Now they just think that it's an invite only beta, but in todays net, hype washes in and then flows out again, really quickly. You gotta get 'em on board whilst it's fresh. So if they haven't devoted enough resources to this, it may fail.

For example, i posted on facebook about it, and immediately had users wanting an invite. Then not 24 hours later, my sister just messaged my saying that she doesn't care anymore cause she hasn't gotten an invite. The backsliding has begun.

Now i don't know what's happening in their backend and what i said could all be moot if this is just a stutter in the rollout, or if the lag in the media hype machine helps bring it to the attention of the less sophisticated net users, round about when they actually go for real live. Or it just does well through natural growth.

We'll see (yeah, this was mostly me being a whiny bitch, cause where's my focking invite)

invite would be welcome. :)

^ pm me your email if you haven't been invited yet.

looks like they've exceeded the capacity again. when invites can be thrown out again would somebody mind giving me one? i wasn't too interested in this but after looking at a profile it looks quite streamlined and clean. could be good.

@ yourwordofdefence@gmail.com please.

I haven't even seen a profile yet.

Sweet thanks.

twitter should worry.

It seems that everytime I view a profile I get an error message across the top of the screen. No indication to what goes wrong. Ah well...

Am I the only one who thinks, from a marketing perspective, "Google +" makes for a horrible name?

it's easy to remember, say, and type

I agree with Mirezzi, also i don't like the layout and the +1 icon is horrible.
