Will you be staying or leaving? Personally I enjoy it more than Facebook or Twitter so I will be staying.

I prefer Twitter way more than G+ or FB. I do like G+ more than FB but my timeline is getting slower and slower everyday on G+. People seem to be abandoning G+ already and they are admitting it. It hope G+ does catch on for the long haul.

I'd be on Google+ more if the iOS app didnt crash on iOS 5 everytime i click anything other then notifications. But I do like it better then Facebook, but I like twitter the best.

I'd just like to check it out.

I like Google+ over Facebook but really don't think that it will attract as many users as Facebook. Although there once was a myspace dominating the market. Only time will tell I suppose.

It's ok. Not to many people I know in it and the app seems laggy. It doesn't load as fast as it should.

+ 1 for me! I might use it more once the app works like it should on iOS 5.

However I see a couple of disadvantages for G+. One downfall is most people aren't going to switch from Facebook. A second downfall is that they will not want to update both G+ and Facebook. Facebook just has too much of a lead over G+ IMO. Most of my friends are already established on Facebook and aren't interested in starting over on G+.

I couldn't agree more.

The fact that the app crashes on iOS 5 is a huge reason I haven't been active on G+. Convincing my friends to switch has been a difficult task because of the reasons you mention above.

With that said, G+ has a few advantages over Facebook. Unless you're addicted to Facebook and that it's your sole reason to use the Internet, changes are you use Google to search. The fact that G+ is integrate through the entire Google experience makes it relatively convenient to use. Secondly, the concept of circles is easy to understand and provide a certain level of control over your privacy something that's not so simple to setup using Facebook.

Personally, once the iOS app works on iOS 5, I'll switch to G+.

I love it. All the advantages of Twitter and a forum rolled into one without the games and silliness associated with Facebook. I could easily use it instead of the other two even without a usable app. After all, when I first started on Twitter there were no apps.

G+ has so much more to offer.

Nobody in my contacts are really using it so not sure if I'll mess with it.
