G+_Alasdair Graham Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm surprised the reading re Vic G's departure on TWIG, that it was his choice. Google+ has failed to attract usage,his products are half finished. He had to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_John Underwood Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Scot Close should I add a list of missing features in G+, Google Docs or produce stats pointing to the failure of G+ to garner usage? Just about every metrics I can think of points to abject failure to deliver success...no desire to argue but as a GoogleFanBoy I have felt let down by V.C.

G+_John Underwood Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Kenneth Smith what's fascinating is that FB is moving towards the G+ model by encouraging news services to fill user walls, I wouldn't be surprised if their metrics are show a reduction in the number of hours people are spending inside FB. However unless G+ gets its UX act together I don't see people crossing over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_John Underwood Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Kenneth Smith so it's clear I am not a fan of Facebook's UX. But they have managed noise for the masses. A clear example of G+ letting regular folk down is the inability to default to a single stream/circle. If it's possible now I stand corrected but it's something so basic if we are too enjoy consistent interaction with like minded people. Yes I can laboriously move people from circle to circle but it's clumsy and time consuming and then when I do, as I said I cannot default to the aforementioned circle. Please Kenneth feel free to educate me in a detailed explanation of how to do it or why it's that way but I believe regular folk cannot make sense of the basic UX of G+ and that's one major reason it's failed to be adopted by the mainstream and why VC got moved out.?

G+_John Underwood Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Kenneth Smith I am aware of how to use the functions you mention but I suggest that is not simple enough and requires unnecessary steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_John Underwood Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Kenneth Smith yes I have an agenda. I wan't G+ to succeed. That is all I want. I am a huge GoogleFanBoy my profile is a pic of local HQ I am simply sick of half finished initiatives.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
