Youtube, Google search, Chrome and now Google+. I'm not very pleased with Facebook but this looks like pure web monopoly. Statment that FB is for teens and G+ for adults is total nonsence. Majority will choose if G+ is next FB, and if that happens it will became same as FB because users are those who shape social networks. G+ will then became full of kids and there will be bunch of same applications as on FB to entertain them. When it comes to FB police they making some progres over the years, and they always have some inovations for platform, so I belive they can stay in game for now.

Each one has its benefits, pros & cons: the reason people love bashing FaceBook is because it's 'time' to do so...People don't take accountability for their actions for allowing themselves to become vulnerable to FaceBook permissions, modules, games, etc. that hinder on their privacy (to a point), and then the individual's chosen friends with 'nonsense' comments and needless postings (ex: 'I just had a sandwich today') are examples of the INDIVIDUAL to take accountability for their own FaceBook experience...

I do believe it's too soon for everyone to transition over: it's a blend of using a good amount of social media platforms (FaceBook, Google+, Twitter, etc.) to their advantage and not to jump ship just because one is better than the other...

While I am a huge fan of G+, I'm not one of those who are going to jump ship from my other platforms - in a business perspective, it's foolish and loss of potential ROI; as for socializing, I still have friends refusing to budge, so until FaceBook actually becomes the next MySpace, I'm still in all : )

My biggest turnoff for Google+ is how ugly and clunky it feels.
