In the opinion of the guys registered on G+... Please can you take some things that are better on G+ than fb... I am considering cancelling fb, but that doesn't mean I'm going to be getting a G+ account...

I'm just curious as to what makes it so much better. Please enlighten me :)

Sparks.
Photos. They aren't screwed up and you can even get EXIF data displayed easily. Big winner for photographers.
You can follow people publicly without having to belong to their circles.
There's no ads. Yet.
Much easier to use than Fartbook.
Games. You don't get bombarded with spam from peoples games.

I had over 200 friends on FB and they mostly bored the living crap out of me. Thank God they aren't on G+ and I can use it to follow people instead of trying to decipher all that Twitter BS.
 
Some of my friends just started using FB, and that's mostly because of how easy the BB app makes it to use FB. If there's a BB G+ App, perhaps uptake will be a bit better. The new fb layout just stinks, looks messy and can simply be a pain to use. At SATNAC someone mentioned South Africa uses the Internet for social reasons the second most in the world. No matter how great g+ is, if my friends aint on it then there's nothing social about it. Maintaining my current social networks uses up too much time as it is, can't add another one right now.
 
Google have already laid the platform with their vastly superior search engine and gmail platform.
All people have to do is click and get connected to G+.
Its sheer accessibility will sink FB.
 
Don't want to derail, but I've just read an interesting article on how to counter this over on Lifehacker. Extensions seems to work very well.

Stopping it is not the point. The fact that you have to do something to stop it is.

I wish they would hurry up and implode completely. Little geek ****ers.
