There is a lot one knows about the newly launched social baby of Google, Google+. There are talks going round about Circles, Huddle, Sparks, etc. But has anyone thought of what is the logic behind Google+’s Circles? Circles basically is a tool which originated with ideas to combine models of various social networks so that a user could get tried preferred services on just one social network. The close links does resemble the real life experience just as one is sharing, socialize and meet up physically.
Circle lets a user just drag and drop their friends and family members in which ever group they want to add them to. The per-presented groups are of family, friends and acquaintances. One can create their own circle as per their preference. The animation even given for when one drops in a friends, is awesome. It rotates like a trigger which even as an eye candy does its part.
‘Circles’ in a way gives extra privacy to a user which they would not just appreciate but even use it happily. Comparing this to Facebook, there is no such option. One just can limit it in rigid groups which is ‘only friends’ and ‘friends of friends’, while Twitter tweets are to be shared with everyone. Gundotra who has been leading Google’s mobile world which seems to have been on a boom has earlier worked with Microsoft even confirmed that privacy is a major issue which ‘circles’ on the whole roots from its base.
What else Google+ Circles can do? It can do everything which a Facebook Status or a Tweet can do, additionally can even act as a private message chat (maybe a one-on-one chat) and as said a group chat. If one wants to make a tweet-like post, then they can add in all the groups to a specific post they are sharing. For a private like message chat, one can just add that specific person to the list to be shared and done, it will be limited to that person alone. A group chat, is one which is being already used on a large scale for chats with friends, family members etc.
For years now Google has been wandering in the social world but did never click as accurately as they have now and with everything going their way they should not think of any loss of the past. It can just run straight and without any worries, but should just remember that there would definitely be real criticism even on its way as there is no therapy to keep everyone happy. Someone will surely find all the hard work useless and criticize it for the good even.
