Social Networking
Google+

I just read about Google’s new Social Network to rival Facebook. It is called Google+ and it actually seems an interesting concept. You can try and sign up, but the beta is full, still it looks interesting.
It is basically a Facebook designed so you can limit what different groups of your friends can see about it, basically a Facebook with much better privacy settings, though of course Google is not the best on privacy either. I hope that it is decent, because it is a good idea, though it certainly won’t make money like Facebook as that makes money by basically selling the user data, but google can integrate search into it to make money.
I also hope they integrate Buzz, which hasn’t taken off, but I always makes notes in my google reader account on a ton of stuff that I read about in RSS feeds.
Looks interesting, and I hope to eventually get chosen for the beta.
