Or - a quick and simple way to keep up with issues around the world and keep in touch with friends.
Nobody is forcing you to read all those absurd, aggressive braggers and dodgy comedians!
Do you stop to listen to every bloke in the street who tries to engage you in conversation?? Do you waste hours in the day listening to meaningless talkback radio?? You probably don't. You have choice. Just like on Twitter, you have the choice to ignore. But sometimes you do want to talk to people in the street, and sometimes you do want to listen to the radio...
I do prefer Twitter over G+ because it keeps things short and sweet. Don't get me wrong, G+ has its place - for example I could never post such long ramblings like this on Twitter! But I also see that as its benefit. Being a concise form of communication I can scan through so much more information and choose only that which is of interest to me. On G+ this can be more challenging.
I wouldn't want to give up G+, however. It has different features which I also like :)
+Terrence Miao+Terrence Miao key word: "irresponsible" including replicating "world news" without applying any critical thinking and/or commentary - all spin doctors, PR/propaganda and other mass mind manipulators been salivating for this for centuries! ;-))
granted, admittedly, same largely applies to FB and G+ as well... but at least here one can come around and drop a 'skeptic' comment... or a counter view or an argument... ;)
+Oleg Kiorsak+Terrence Miao So I suppose one could say that Twitter allows people to spam each other, and G+ allows us to spam each other even more? :-P heh
