…google+…

So, the past week, I’ve felt like Willy Wonka handing out Golden tickets to those wanting an invite to Google+. At first, it was an ego booster to be the “first” of my peers to be on the site. Then…

Google+ is a lonely world when you don’t have a lot of followers or people to follow. Secondly, I feel like a techy-reject. The learning curve migrating from Facebook to Google+ seems to be a big one for me. I won’t say how long it took for me to find the “invite friends” link.

I will say that it is quite pleasing to know that I won’t log in to see the tags of people in Nike photo albums or the Louboutin sale album. *whew!*That is a relief.

Although, Google+ seems to be a stalker’s dream application, not saying I’m going to stalk anyone, but the application does make it simpler than Facebook. Hell, the locator feature lets a potential stalker know exactly where you are. Seriously though, I am a little fearful that I will inadvertently divulge my location at the exact moment that a potential boo interrogates my whereabouts. I already suck at lying, it would be my luck that the boo is logged in to Google+ to verify.

A bonus of the application is that the fear that arises in thinking that one day there will be a Facebook app that let’s people know who has visited a person’s page and the number of times is nonexistent. *whew!* Not that I Facebook stalk or anything.
