What's New??
I'll not debate whether this is fresh or unique..
Our (Seeming) Review
Google Plus, the next giant project by google. I didn't even predict that they'll come up with a new project (they called it a project instead of a product) likely to challenge the king of the social network, Facebook. And the google's excellency is they integrated all their products in just one account. So if you already have a google account then you'll automatically registered as google+ member.
From the first impression, the homepage of the Google+ contains all their integrated products in the top row, such as Gmail, Google docs, Photos, Calendar, YouTube, and others. They state that the Google+ project is still in trial but unfortunately we can't tried it just yet because of limited users. Still, you can view their interactive tour to see what are the new features in there. In addition, from what we saw in other's screenshot the lay out of the google+ user's profile is much like facebook's. So, what will you do, Mark?

| Some of the new features of google+ |
The screenshot above shows some of the unique features google+ had (from mashable.com):
Google+ Circles: Well-implemented feature. It’s far easier than creating a Twitter List or a Facebook Friend List. The drag-and-drop functionality is a welcome addition, and the cute animations that appear when you perform actions give the product personality. That doesn’t necessarily mean users will take the time to create friend groups. The purpose of this feature is not on sharing with a mass group of friends, but on targeted sharing with your various social groups. So this is an unique feature, isn't it? :)
Google+ Hangouts: Hangouts is one of the more innovative concepts of Google+, and reviewer think it’s a cool approach to getting users to accept group video chat. The camera switching feature (it changes who’s on camera based on who’s talking) is far superior to having multiple video feeds open at the same time. That said, it will require users checking their Google+ streams every day for potential chats to join. If Google+ gains traction, Hangouts will be a killer feature. Nice move, guys!
Google+ Sparks: Sparks may end up being Google+’s most underrated feature. The company has essentially created a recommendation engine without calling it one. It’s designed to augment Google+, and if it works as Google designed it, it will create winners and losers in the publishing world, making Google +1 buttons actually matter. Before that becomes a reality though, it needs traction and it should consider acquiring advanced content recommendation technology from a company like Trapit or my6sense.
Our Conclusion
This should be 'big' enough to challenge facebook. Let's see and try at plus.google.com.
What Should I Do Next??
It's never be a sin to use another social medias. Moreover this is google's stuff.
Our Ratings
N/A. Till we actually tried it.
(ps: Mark Zuckerberg is on google+ too, see it here)
