Title: Google + Invite Thread
Post by: b_beau_09 on July 07, 2011, 09:00:45 AM
Hey guys, I don't know if there's interest here for this, but I just got into Google +, and as far as I know, it's still invitation only.  If anyone wants an invite send me a PM with your gmail address.

Also, I've found out that you should have a Google Profile setup prior to getting the invitation.  goto profiles.google.com to create one.  No need to fill out your whole life story on it, just set one up, and let me know if you want an invite.

Google's version of social networking.  It looks almost identical to Facebook, but without all the crap.

Do you guys have a google profile setup already? Takes two seconds.. goto profiles.google.com.. then set one up and try logging into it again. I just did that for my fiance and she was able to join immediately after


Title: Re: Google + Invite Thread
Post by: timot_one on July 07, 2011, 10:25:04 PM
I read what you wrote in your OP and made sure to set up my google profile.  I had it set up before I got your invite.


Title: Re: Google + Invite Thread
Post by: b_beau_09 on July 07, 2011, 10:29:04 PM
Hmm. I don't know then.. I know that google has been shutting the doors every so often..   keep trying to sign in until it works I guess..

Z did you get in?

I haven't tried yet. I'll give it a shot in the morning.


Title: Re: Google + Invite Thread
Post by: b_beau_09 on July 07, 2011, 10:57:51 PM
Yeah I was getting that all last night before I slipped in. My guess is you just have to keep trying. Il try sharing a post with you guys as well in the morning as an invite type thing and see if that email link works for you instead.  Google just added the invite button to it this evening.. prior to that you invite someone by sharing a post you made with them. I don't know. Just keep trying until google opens the doors again

Alright, I just "shared" a post with all you guys.. Try logging in tonight between 8pm and 10pm..  I read a post that said that Google is opening the window around that time, or at least have the past two days.

I'm in.  I got the email while I was out on the road today, so I didn't get a chance to join until I got home.  This may take some getting used to.

Post by: gargantula99 on July 09, 2011, 08:52:22 AM
I don't get it, you guys already talk to each other through this forum. You probably already do through fb as well. So now you guys want to talk to each other through google too? Y'all should just move in together. The lot of you.

Someone's jealous. Also, don't forget about texting.

Title: Re: Google + Invite Thread

I just read a whole new York times article on this.  It sounds like it's got a Legitimate chance of competing Against Facebook.
