Google + ???

Got mine. I have no idea how well Google + will do but it might be an idea to start a google + circle to compliment our Facebook Group. I'm not sure sure the Facebook page puts much traffic our way but anything that is free to set up can't be bad.

I'm still finding out how Google + works and if it offers anything useful for us.

A bit of a PR stunt but the first half hour gives a nice overview of the service. The oddest thing to get your brain round after Facebook is the lack of having to make friends with people...

It seems to have opened up quite a bit atm, but I can invite atm if anyone is still wanting...

Yep things seem to be picking up fast. I'm mostly using Google+ as a feed for posts by Professional Bloggers, Photographers and technology Bods. So most of the content I see is from people I don't know. Adding dozen or so interesting posters/writers/bloggers to your circles does seem to bring Google+ alive and make it more interesting.

I got about 5 invites off friends but it appears I cant activate??

Not sure if the server are at capacity or if invites have a limited time window to activate. Very weird!

They write somewhere that it can be because of capacity limitations. They have opened and closed a dusin times this last week. One thing to check is that you must follow the invite link in the mail, not just go to the site (but I am sure you've done that).
