I have always wondered where Googles border information comes from.

This article also shows you have to be very careful with things like this. I would never have thought a dispute like this would happen due to Google putting a border in the wrong place.

This is a very tough decision, one which I am currently going through at the moment. Experiences are great, but giving up on the chance of a good relationship is hard. Experiences may be more predictable / controllable, but sometimes the less predictable experience can lead you places you never thought you would end up.

Some good points in there. I also wonder about circles, it requires you to categorize the people you know, if someone were to find out what category they were in and that was different to the category they thought they should be in, well thats sure to change a friendship.

I completely agree about apps customers being treated like 2nd class citizens. I was not impressed when I found out I couldn't create a Google+ account due to lack of profiles, this will probably result in many of those people creating new Google accounts just to test those products out.

Anyone else find it annoying if you use google apps for your email? Going to http://www.google.com/+ gives the message "Google Profiles is not available for your organisation".

Guess I'll just have to wait as creating a profile just for Google+ does not interest me at all.

I completely agree, their biggest problem will be getting people to switch over from Facebook, although I'm sure many of us were on other social networking sites before Facebook so it can definitely happen again. If circles manages to target the regions that Facebook hasn't then they will have a huge advantage.

I think there are good arguments, both for and against having points next to comments. Personally I am in that 61%. I like to judge the quality of a comment by the number of points it has. Unfortunately this usually means most comments down the bottom get very little face time.
