Hangouts range from incredibly laggy to somewhat laggy for me... Always have.
Google+ opening its API to Flipboard, integration coming soon
Bradley Horowitz, the man pulling the strings behind Google+, has been speaking today at the LeWeb 12 conference in London. Several partners were announced for the social platform, including Buddy Media, Hootsuite, Context Optional, Hearsay Social, Involver and Vitrue, who are all now "trusted partners." Perhaps more interesting though, is the addition of Flipboard to that list.
Opening up the Google+ API to Flipboard will mean a proper integration of the two platforms. Users of Flipboard will soon be able to comment on, and +1 Flipboard articles, as well as sending Flipboard content to their Google+ circles.
They really are taking their time with their APIs for G+.
Fuck, I really want to be entrenched in Google's ecosystem, because I plan on picking up the Nexus 7, but like none of my friends use Google +, which is a shame, because I enjoy it more than Facebook.

My solution was to one day start sharing everything through G+. Since most if not all of them have Gmail, and they got emails all the time about it (by me checking the email box) they eventually most migrated to + or at least use both now.
That's smart! Sadly I don't think that many friends use gmail, or even check their email on a regular basis that is.My solution was to one day start sharing everything through G+.

Google I/O isn't even finished yet, and everyone's favorite search company has already shaken things up quite a bit. One of the biggest things Google announced was Google Events. Google said that this new feature would allow users to coordinate events and share them with others. What Google didn't say was that with the addition of this feature, Google+ is ready. Cooked until golden brown and ready to be served. And, guys? It's time to dig in.
Where is the thread where we add each other to Google+?
Not a single soul in my network uses it sadly.
Google Events is a nightmare right now, it seriously needs to be fixed. My feed is currently jammed up with invites from people I've never heard of to events I have no interest in. Apparently Google is scrambling to fix it as they've had lots of complaints.
I was one of the first people in G+ and have been a regular poster there but I'm very close to being done with it. It just doesn't seem to have caught on, everyone I know is on Facebook/Twitter but probably less than 5% of them are also on G+. It's just a totally redundant third network for me right now. Not sure what they can do to fix it.
There's a link the OP with a share of gaffers.
The fact that Google+ was very sparsely populated used to be kind of cool when it was in beta, a welcome change from the more established and noisy social networks. But that novelty has worn off now; the idea of a social network that hardly anyone I know uses just seems kind of pointless. And maybe it's just me but I think the design is atrocious.
Yup. Currently there is limited integration (simple stuff like posting tracks from Spotify etc) which makes it kind of useless for me. The core features are great but I've never got a reason to go.
So I have to go into Calendar to remove things from G+? Brilliant.
EDIT: I can't figure it out, where exactly is the setting to remove events from my feed?
Yeah I don't think you can yet, I think that's what Google is rushing to fix.Oops, sorry, I was thinking you were complaining about auto add to the calendar.

So.. i never really use this but because of the conference I decided to give it a whirl
...and now get a daily error on my phone that I cannot login to G+ even thought it works fine on my browser.
I put in my password (even though it is linked to the gmail account my phone uses) and no dice.
Is this related to the double authentication on my gmail somehow?
so.....ipad app?
I just added an older version of the NeoGaf circle, but that might have heaps of people who aren't active, right? Not sure how it works.
I would like to see a spreadsheet of active GAFers. I ended up getting rid of my GAF circle because it got huge from the first rollout. It ended up getting a bunch of reddit people mixed in.
IPAD!!!!!
Finally! The iphone app is great but a lot of times too compact to go through the mass of things in my stream.
