Finally, on Google+

I have been trying hard to get one of the early invites to Google+.  I had to resort to sharing a request on Facebook (ironic, since Google+ is supposed to be Facebook's competition).  There, I found that not one but two people in my group were already on Google+.  For over a week!

Anyways,  thanks to a generous donation of an invite, I am able to try out Google's latest foray into social networking.  I like it.  It is a lot more intuitive than Facebook, which at times feels cluttered. 

Google+ makes it really easy to manage your friends in different 'Circles'.  Later, when you are sharing photos or comments, you can easily share your work photos with your work circle and share family photos only with your family circle.  Easy but powerful!

The service is still developing and expanding, but even from this early on it looks like it has potential to become big.  If you are interested to check it out, leave your email in the comments area.  I will delete your email from the comments once I send you an invite.
