Google Plus vs. Facebook : Google’s Latest Attempt to Overtake Facebook

Google Plus have most delicious features of social network”, my friend told me. “Now the social community era has begun and Google Plus comes with perfect tools to do”, my senior said. “I will not use Facebook when Google Plus will comes to public, because I want to beware of time”, my some colleague said like this. Some people say like - "Google release Google Plus to bet Facebook!"

I also felt too much interesting about G+ and tried to know what the real thing is waiting for us to explore. OMG! Everywhere is the same topic going on. I found lots of topics like Google Plus vs. Facebook as here a race will be start soon and all users are ready to be crazy anyway. Some topics are going on about their features to compare each other and very little amount of topic to compare with other social community. Some topics are with some statistics.



I also joined to Google+. I explore everything in Google+ and their official blog and I was shocked. They never compare with Facebook or other social community. They only say, Google wants you to use the whole Web. The more you do, the more you need its search engine and YouTube and Blogger and Picassa and all its other sites and the ads they show you. Previously Google release Google Orkut, Google Wave and Buzz with more features. But they cannot succeed. But this time again started Google Plus.

Facebook and Twitter have more tools to keep active their users. Like Facebook has status, questions, media, links to share with friends. Facebook also has Chat, Group, Page and more things to make fun with friends. Twitter has micro blogging concept which help users to share their thoughts, media and links to their followers. Now micro blogging system and URL shorting system are become most popular tools for marketing and publicity or share to followers. Also both are giving a facility to discuss about anything and anywhere with their friends or followers. Facebook has social activity with great privacy feature and twitter has great following concept to connect people with each other. But they are old too.

It is really true that Google+ features are excellent then other social community. Google Plus users can manage their friends by Circles, video chat with 10 friends by Hangouts, communicating through instant messaging within circles by Sparks and share any topic globally as interested or Featured Interested by Huddles. Circles also allow users to manage privacy usefully and circle concept is already become popular before get launch to public. It also have other hot features like video conferencing and plus one (+1) and other features are like Facebook. Its popularity is also going high.

Google plus was launched June 28, 2011 with slogan "Real-life sharing rethought for the web" and it already reached 20 million users. Wikipedia publish, - "Sources such as The New York Times have declared it Google's biggest attempt to rival the social network Facebook, which had over 750 million users in 2011. On July 14, 2011, Google announced that Google+ had reached 10 million users just two weeks after it was launched in a limited trial phase. After less than a day of being live, the Google+ iPhone app has the number one free spot in the Apple app store. After 3 weeks in operation, it has already reached 20 million users ."

Well we can say one thing for sure that Google Plus has proven that they are gonna give a good fight to make their way to the number one Social Network. Many people including me, waiting for the public launch of Google Plus.
