I don't know if anyone here really cares or not. But I thought I would put it out there because for a while I didn't have anyone who can send me an invite. If you are interested in getting an invite, as its invite only right now. Just PM me your gmail address and I will send you an invite. Its still early beta so there isn't a whole lot there yet. Its nothing "earth shatteringly new" or anything yet. But without more people and more things(pictures/links) etc... to post and fill it, its pretty much an empty shell of things. edit: The usercap/invites were opened up last night. They apparently keep opening/closing them constantly. I think they are still open now for if you get invited. but I will try still. Its not like gmail where you have "# of invites" its sorta weird. edit 2x: Just sent out a bunch of invites to those who msg'd me and to those who posted here. edit 3x: sad face  have sent out over 20 invites and 0 appreciation, haha I'm an appreciation whore with no love

Capping the influx of new members in a social network is by far the worst mistake - evah

Just like this thread  The only power of a social network is to have as much members as possible. Creating an artificial cap was a success for gmail, but that was basically because gmail used an existing feature (email) that it 'just' wrote another frontend for. Everybody within gmail could communicate with everybody, and everybody could communicate with gmail-accounts. Not so with a social network: you can only communicate with people that are a member too. Hence you want to make it as easy as possible for people to get in. My $0.02...

anyone remember the south-park where Cartman buys a theme-park and doesn't let anyone in? When in doubt just check to see if it worked in a cartoon first.

Everything needs a beta period. It also worked well for Facebook. At the start it was restricted to a very small set of schools and was small, this was back when myspace was taking off.
If google+ works or not, the limited numbers at the start will not be the reason for failure. And if anyone can steal facebooks thunder its google. However that is a big if.

We've seen exactly the same strategy fail for GoogleWave.
Everybody wanted to try it during the hype, barely anyone could, and everybody that could, had nobody to communicate with.

Excellent, thank you. I am now in.  It seems reasonably interesting. Basically Facebook with clearer privacy controls and nicer UI. On the top of my recommended list of people to add was Markus, I wonder how it associated him with me. I guess I emailed him a bunch when we were the moderators of JGO. Ha ha, here is an email that has Julien complaining about him.  I just need to release an awesome indie game to get back into his "circle." Anyway. I now have some invites, so if people need one let me know.

Can you not just lie or change your age and try again?

Errr I dont understand the sign up thing. I have Gmail account and sign in on plus.google.com but see nothing. Is Google limiting the amount of users who can access this plus?

You need an invite from someone who already has a Google+ account.

i just have got the idea about my own twitter/facebook i plan to overf**k all this G+, twitter and facebook by functionality and to overf**k not these ones but many outsiders by popularity in this social network area wait till my the next message in this thread and maybe a demo in some days/week feel free to start a row of collaborators (despising curiosity of the message i'm actually serious thinking i'm not naive)
