Discuss Google+... will it take over facebook. in the UK Tiling Forum area at TilersForums.com.
Nope.
You all know how much a fan of Google I am. And I don't think they'll do it I'm afraid. Though I wish them all the best with it. (Just in case they're watching!)
Facebook new registrations are on the decline in the UK. Not saying they're still not getting bigger, they are. They're just getting bigger slower and even FB are worried, they've paid millions to "Analysis's" to do reports to try and find out why that is.
Even though, it's still the one place that's made it before the rest. Same with eBay, Google, Microsoft for PC's, Apple for TouchScreen Phones. And tilersforums.com for Tile Forums haha. Once you've made it in markets which are new, and you help shape the way it's done, you don't get overtaken easily.
Just like Google's previous two version of this, Buzz and eeerm, the other one I never even heard about but read the name the other day and I've forgotten it, this Google+ isn't worth investing your time in as a business, and hardly worth registering to as a personal user. You'll already have your existing contacts in Facebook, so why have two sets of contacts going?
Just my 2p.
MySpace as sort of levelled off now and is heavily orientated around bands and their followers, of which there is an increasing number what with all these tv shows about that sort of stuff. At least from what I can tell and have read.
Google should have bought FaceBook and Twitter. That would have been cool. FaceOogle and TwOogle. haha.
I'd like google to take over FB,,,,,,if they got rid of farmville, cityville and all those other daft apps!
Block the apps doug as you see 'em in your news feed. I spent only a few days (as you see the same ones all the time) bothering with doing it and 90% had stopped. The other 10% I've worked through over the months just as and when I see them. They're normally not the common ones like the 'Villes' and 'Wars' ones.I'd like google to take over FB,,,,,,if they got rid of farmville, cityville and all those other daft apps!
beat me to itJust block the, Doug. If you get any friends' updates with them on, when you delete that on your homepage you can opt to stop notifications about them altogether, and it works a treat, can't be doing with them either..
I don't have an iPhone, so wouldn't know, but slowly getting used to google+, I think it may have potential, does seem more business orientated, like a longer message version of twitter maybe? We'll see. Still don't get what the +1 is all about, on other sites, too, what does it do when we click it?
I think it's basically a like button... Which is really good for your website as the amount of +1's show up on google searches next to your site or post.
ah, ok.. it's just that on the google account it said something about enabling or disabling it, or something like it, to funnel ads etc in your/my direction, or not, I couldn't get my head round it, so I opted for no, no to something anyhow... do I sound confused? I am..
and do I add that to my website somehow or what? Getting network-obsessed...
I'm trying to get my head around the algorithm for that lol Would love our forum content to show up there.The Sparks thing on google+ is quite amazing really. I added Scarborough (UK) to my sparkslist today and hey presto, I get all the important local news right there, nice and tidy, including entertainment programmes, council decisions, all sorts. Well pleased.
