I recently joined.  It seems dead.

im not sure if im early or late to the party.

[Potatoe]

No (Is not waltermitty)

[Flake]

Yes, I rarely use it though

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Yes, and I probably use it more than Facebook. But for a very specific reason: Ingress. Since all Ingress events and announcements are made through it and hence all in game organization is as well. It's a must for any Ingress player.

But honestly it is better designed and easier to use than Facebook, I wish people would use it more for non-Ingress purposes.

I have Google+, but I very rarely use it. Barely anyone I know has Google+.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I don't know anyone who uses it. It was a major flop.

[free my dawg]

It's inactive

Not entirely true. As noted it's heavily used amongst Ingress players. So more like it's only used by a very specific niche group, but that's different than no one.

[NewYorkExpress]

I (sort of) use it... but I really don't like it

[King]

I have it. The layout seemed pretty boring and I couldn't find many people I knew on it.

I only use it as part of using Google without them pestering me to join Google+.

[morgieb]

I think I have it, but I never use it as no-one I know uses it afaik.

[Cranberry]

I have it because of my other google, but I never use it.

[Mr. Morden]

I use it for making video calls all the time.  (At least twice a week, but usually more.)  As I said in this thread, I actually make video calls with Google+ more often than I make calls with an actual phone.

There actually is a demographic whom use G+ a lot besides Ingress players but isn't very represented on Atlas. Essentially the hardcore techhead crowd. Think of people who write posts on their Linux computers about how Apple is the devil and about the annoying hipsters who use iPods and consider Microsoft products so beneath they won't even comment on them, and spend much of their free time rooting and designing new modifications to their Android phones. Or some 25 year old who makes $80k a year at some high level IT job, lives in a downtown condo, is not married, has no kids, has no desire to do either, and still spends most of his free time getting drunk and/or high when he's not playing World of Warcraft just like he did in college. Granted there's a very heavy overlap with those types and Ingress players, but that's basically the user base of it. Very specific and narrow but certainly not nonexistant. It's quite telling by how often anti-Apple/anti-iPhone stuff trends on G+ and goes hot.

^ BRTD is dead on. But I've still considered clicking on the G+ share button on porn sites to see if anyone would actually notice.

Also, sometimes my friends use it to share drunk photos they don't want on FB.

[Mopsus]

[Supersonic]

I just don't 'get' it.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

What the hell is Orkut?

Social networking website Google set up ten years ago before Google+, is now truly almost completely unused in the US but survives because it's popular in Brazil.
