Do you need another social network?
InternetGoogle recently released Google+, a new social network. Do you think you need another social network? ~ The Daily Post
You mean, another Google social network, or another social network in general? I've had revolutionary Orkut, Knol, Jaiku, Wave and Buzz accounts that went nowhere, so it's hard to muster enthusiasm for yet another of this company's efforts. If it gains some traction I'll look into it further.
One thing's for sure, Facebook sorely needs some competition. I'm uneasy about trusting Google with my personal information (not necessarily their fault), but I trust them far more than Facebook. Then again, I'd trust Diaspora more.
As for the name, it's almost as lame as Apple's Ping, but not as bad as Qrocity!
