Google Plus was formally launched on June 28th with limited invitations. Initially most of us thought that Google will have a hard time convincing Facebook and Twitter users to migrate to this new network. Contrary to early fears, the budding social network has already reached a new milestone by crossing 20 million connections in less than a month. This is a commendable achievement given that the project is still in the beta stage and works on an invite-based system.

Well known research firm ComScore gave out these numbers, which clearly suggest that Google Plus has the potential to go a long way. Not so surprisingly, it has now become the fastest growing social network, a position which was previously held by Twitter for crossing a significant number of activations within just a few months. The main reason for the success of Google Plus would be the hype that it created when it was first shown off. Almost everybody wanted to get into the new social network by having a profile of their own. That being said, it still has room for improvement. Google has mentioned that once the project is up and raring to go, it will be made available to all.

However, the trend hasn't quite caught up in India, where users still favour Facebook and Twitter. The latter actually works as a social network for professionals because it doesn't have many complications. Google Plus is more of a social network to while your time away with, which is similar to Facebook. Therefore, it is generally thought that Google Plus is more of a competitor to Facebook than to Twitter. Facebook on the other hand, is still the top dog with the most number of members and it has been adding new features such as voice and video chat. However, many still feel that the Hangout group video chat feature of Google Plus is still cooler. It is difficult to predict at this point of time as to who will win the social networking war, we will just have to wait and watch.
 
Apparently, new Google “Plus” features are being
implemented before the site’s official public release,
and Google wants to record every moment of it. Google is now indexing all the works of its social
networking team by adding the “What’s new”
category in the social networking site’s help page.
Indexed by date, the new Google+ what’s new tackles new features that are being added to the
search engine giant’s new project like the no-
gender requirement of Google Plus which was
implemented two weeks ago, and the Google Plus
for Business that was noted last week. The goal of the new page is obviously to keep track
of the developments made by the team while 10
million plus Google Plus testers are currently
enjoying and sending feedbacks to Google. Social
networking is obviously the search engine giant’s
biggest project to date, and it looks like the team behind the Google Plus want to an almost-perfect
site before launching it to the public. Google Plus was launched last month, with
obviously less than a million beta testers. The first
members of Google Plus are Google employees,
journalists and other internet-centric personalities
including Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.
Google started accepting more members in July with the launch of Google Plus invite link that was
embedded inside the social networking site —
where current members can submit e-mail
addresses of friends and family to get an invitation. According to the latest data posted by Alexa,
Google Plus is the second most popular subdomain
of Google, while the older Gmail is the top
subdomain. The latest data is also claiming
that 2.80% of Google’s total website traffic are from
Google Plus. Now, calculate that amount if Google’s daily traffic is more than 100 million. Google Plus is also the main reason why Google
redesigned its homepage and other core services
like Gmail and Google News and the navigation bar,
from off-white to black. Google’s redesign involved
adding more red and less blue colors that mixed
well with the company’s new social networking project. Sources: Google Plus What’s New, Alexa Search for more Google Plus and
