Only room for one social networking site - Off-topic

So Google+ is soon to be released to the public. Do you think Facebook is to big and powerful to fall
Or is Google simply to powerful to fail?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using Tapatalk

Facebook is dead. Google has all other smartphone competitors by the gonads now with Google+. G+ will be the prevailing social site and Google will have total control of it and whether they allow competitors to use it. Facebook will be a sinking weight on Google's competitors because of it dying off.

Only time will tell.

Both could exist - it's possible. There are the people who are sick of facebook and that whole ecosystem that want to move to the next best thing. But then there are the people who are engrained into facebook and so are their friends, and they have no motivation to leave it. Its up for grabs really.

Apple users and non geeks will stick to facebook....
The rest of us will use G+ and probably peek at facebook once a day to see what people we dont give a crap about are up to....
Or something....
Edit;
How until we see a social network from Apple??
Ping or whatever that crap was/is called doesnt count as that is obvious fail.....

If Apple creates their own social networking, it will be a hype for the nongeeks. My friends love anything what apple created. -_-

I'm using FB and G+, but i can't completely move to G+ unless a lot of my friends does the jump too.
Right now, G+ is "I-want-to-share-something-nerdy", and FB is the place i talk to my friends with no nerdy articles or questions

I got an invite to g+
I tried to get on and got a message saying there is an age requirement. If they keep the age limit too high then all the teenagers will stay on fb and get further attached to it.
Btw I'm 16, have a facebook, but barely use it

Good let the kids stay on facebook. Facebook is turning into what myspace used to be.

Social Networks trying to take over the world?

Have you all noticed that Facebook, twitter, and other networks try to take over the world? Facebook in skyfire now, facebook is everywhere with "like" buttons, Social Networks are forced by freaking Motoblur, people reporting each their step: "I just ate Icecream!" "I just saw some weird dude." "People what to do? I got a ticket!"
Get your butt out of the computer/cellphone and go to the beach watch a sunset! Let your brain free for at least a moment!
While checking email in the morning, I see hundreds of posts from people about what they did on a hourly basis.
So pathetic. After all this I really want to delete facebook and add it to all possible filters.
What is your opinion of such invasion and zombification?
I say xda is better than facebook...
You can meet intellecual minds here
I agree, but they are not taking over the world, they are taking over people who are stupid enough to think that facebook is their life.
+1!
Completely agree.

Its strange how people used to share things such as photos, and sentimental things in real life. And now people cant wait to upload to facebook.
I must confess i'm a twitter addict though (hopefully not in the: "i'm eating a sandwich kinda way")
It's only a fad. I remember the days when Friendster was cool and everyone was on it. Then came MySpace, and in that got canned with Facebook. Once FB floats, investors are gonna put a lot of pressure on the management to monetize their assets (users) and this is gonna push the engineers to their peak frustration. They'll start using codes that users hate, and sooner or later a new social network will start, and the cycle begins anew.

Im just getting really annoyed by facebook, twitter, and myspace stuff forced upon me. I install something, there yahoo toolbar forced, or facebook link.
I keep facebook just as an easy connection to friends, but not as my way of life. I go to facebook anytime and i see at least 10 of my friends sitting out there, where 9 out of these 10 post all what they did.
I also loved skyfire, but now its impossible to use it on my Magic at all. Instead of making that, they could have fixed video errors, that happen in 2 out of 3 videos. Plus there were no single movie that I could finish without an error.
Off topic: You guys should have seen the computer at my temporary workplace. It had 150 toolbars installed on IE, Starting from yahoo toolbar and ending with facebook toolbar. All kinds of notifiers and BS, forced on the noobs. Took me 2 hours to clean everything from it, including hundreds of viruses and bs.
It is clearly obvious that the goal of each social network is to capture people as many as possible. Alone I do not blame them. For the most part it is people's fault.
I was growing up in Ukraine, and a computer was something that we did once a month (if lucky enough). We did anything possible, from fishing to exploring... Were out from sunrise till sundown.
Even shared photos and proposed to girls in PERSON. Now people breaking up on freaking facebook, and seek a remedy for their problems...

Actually, it's turning the other way around. The big players were bouncing around the idea of charging users more if they go to popular sites like FB and Google.

i have a fb account and i use it only for people i know... no need for strangers, they are always rejected...

Google+

It is an app, but its not here. But I figure you cant change or tweek what you cant have or use, so if anyone wants an invite just PM me your gmail and I will send you an invite. I figure this way we can tweek the app to be transparent or change the icon or something...

That's simply because girls are already drawn to Facebook and wouldn't want to port over all their info from Facebook to Google+ if they have all their friends on Facebook.

i didnt realize i needed a social network to score women. i was under the impression that im already popular with the ladies and can get some, like i said, without a social network.
either way, there will come a certain point in time where google+ might possibly overtake facebook. just like facebook overtook myspace. and all other social networking sites. although im not sure if it will be apple friendly. that might affect the popularity.

You obviously missed my point.
Without female support social networking would've never reached it's current height, it would be just another internet pipe dream. Whether it's guys trying to "pick up chicks" or just the fact that women are ~50% of the population, having a female presence is essential if Google+ is to get anywhere.

And a word to you Zuckerberg, hope you can keep your, ahem, 'social network', alive. Besides, if they do make one, it will be a piece of OEM junk with loads of facebook apps and crap. They will fork gingerbread and call it FaceOS and it will include the facebook app, facebook camera, and every other useless link to talk to your friends. This will be called, drum roll please, fAPPS. Plus browser and Facebook settings app. What else do we need? Sorry, Play Store not included.

Is anyone actually using Google+ on a daily basis?

Is anyone using Google plus as a daily driver? I still find myself using facebook more than g+. I can do without the lack of users but I'm noticing that its not very user friendly. Just trying to manage albums seem to be a pain in the ass. Just wondering if anyone is using g+ over facebook, maybe theres some pointers they can give me. I might just lay off g+ until they improve on it a bit..

I actually started using it regularly about a month ago. Just like facebook, it took a bit of getting used to and finding all of the right buttons to push. You actually have more control over what you do. Got tired of facebook constantly changing without letting you know. I now prefer google+

Agreed.
I still find it tough to do without many people on my facebook list though.
Moved to Off-topic.
I use G+ a few times per day. It won't be replacing Facebook for me, as practically all my friends are on there. I do like the discussions and cool posts on G+ though.
I was hoping to use g+ the way I was using tumblr. Posting pics, writing certain things that are only viewable by me. What's really getting to me though is just the way uploading pictures work. Not being able to upload a picture on my phone to a specific album really kills it for me.
I use it daily. But not as a facebook replacement. More of a place to meet new people and read interesting posts that dont involve rants and poor grammar lol.

I guess I'll pop in here:
Nope, I don't use Google+ much at all. I started using Facebook a long time ago. When I got a Google+ account, I didn't know how to use it and it was a hassle to learn everything. I switched back to Facebook.
I used it before, but not anymore. I deleted my profile when i noticed that G+ is the same as FB. The only difference is that i have real friends on FB, and not just some random Germans and Americans that just have to show what they had for dinner today, or post 18 random Google Image images a day, just to get +1.
I have used G+ a bit to see what it's like...but I end up just using Facebook for everything social. Plus, way more people I know are on FB anyway.

We all know about Facebook privacy issues. But, we are still using it. FB is one thing that u hate but u can't go too far from!!. Google+ I used it just to check what's hot!. I don't have many friends on google+ as on FB so maybe this other reason beside getting to used to part!

Whats the best Wifi-only IM solution to chat between iOS and Android?

Hey everyone, I didn't know where to post this. Theres a no-iphone rule in the General section, so I thought this would be safe. I would normally ask iOS questions on an iOS Forum, but this is something that I'm only going to get dumb answers on an iOS forum.
We're wanting to buy my 10 year old daughter an iPod Touch for Christmas. She actually wants an HD video camera, but the iPod Touch serves that purpose, plus it would be cool to let her iMessage chat, and Face Time with all her cousins, grandparents, ect. Everyone in our family uses iOS devices, except me.
I detest iOS with a passion, but I'm not going to be as bull-headed as to buy her a Galaxy Player, and force all our relatives to sign up for Google Talk accounts just to chat with her. iOS just makes more sense.
Heres my question: I want to be able to chat with her from my Android devices. It would be a frosty day in hell I would let her get a Facebook account, so Google Talk is the obvious choice. Except that apparently there isn't a Google Talk app for iOS. It looks like Google merged it into their Google+ app. But I'm certainly not setting her up with a Google+ account.
I want to do both Video Chat, and IM. I'm considering maybe just setting her up with a Skype account, and relying on that for both IM and Video. Anyone have any other good solutions?
Thanks
Skype, or the trusty old AIM which looks a lot different now. lol
Skype. Most other cross platform apps have limitations or make you pay.
But if you set up her G+ account then set it up completely private.

For video chatting I recommend Tango.

That was one of my thoughts. My biggest concern is that she could change her settings (unwittingly). But I suppose the App probably wouldn't let her do that.
Maybe if I set up the account, and didn't tell her the password?

Do they allow users to search for eachother? Or do you need to know somebody's details to add them? I'm mostly worried strangers adding her, and trying to video chat with her.

Skype servers are iffy when sending messages while the person is offline. They might they might not get them. G+ always sends them.
