“Say what you will about the mainstream viability of Google
Plus, but anyone who has spent even a few days on Google?s rapidly
developing social network can tell you that the userbase seems
unusually knowledgeable and tech-savvy. There have been numerous

given out to primarily technical users (developers, tech
journalists, etc), and they predictably shared their invites with
like-minded individuals.”
