Google +

[Heysüß]

Ive been on Google+ since the moment it opened to non google employees. Have a good friend that works for Google. I love it. I used Buzz a lot anyways for my little clique of friends to post shit back and forth, so its very welcomed to me. I hate Facebook as well.

ah, that's who you are! I was wondering who had the nice red e30 on my friend's google+

invite+?

[87e30]

give me your email email

I'd be down to try if someone wouldn't mind sending an invite?

[slammin.e28]

I'm. Inviting friends. So far two are on (one invited me, one found me), and the rest "can't figure it out."

That's what I get for living where I do....

I like it.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Yeah, I'm enjoying it so far, but I'm having trouble finding people.

[Vince30]

I'm in. It's nice

Can you send me an invite? I would like to try it.

Facebook is far sketchier than google in my book. They are already known to be selling information and they even planted a fake story regarding google to make themselves look better.

Any online company is going to store your info, choose the one that offers you the most and has a good company culture (google).

I am using this and have added the feature to our site as well. I think it will take off.

eh, virtually all of the smartphones are guilty of the creepy GPS data tracking. There was a big stink about Apple doing this a few months ago.

Facebook has been quite terrible as of late about the whole privacy matter though.. I don't doubt for a second that they wouldn't sell off everything they know about you (if they haven't already). That and the embarrassing app exploits that are running rampant all over the site.

I'm in. It's nice

you have to opt into the GPS "home" feature, so unless you turned it on it doesn't track anything. and it's actually quite useful.

I'm pretty sure they don't log IP addresses with the searches, but it doesn't matter that much, in court they haven't really allowed an IP address to be used as indentification of a person.

[mrsleeve]

AFAIK they can tell what people were searching for, but not who was searching for what.

IP addy is logged with every single search query. Right they cant tell who is using your computer, but they can tell which computer is searching for what and when.

That and the whole android line, sending GPS data "home" every few mins, along with all the photos taken with a smart phone tag the info for the pic with GPS data as well, did ratchet up the creepyness factor quite a bit, dont you think ??
