G+ really seems to be kicking off. Although lets face it, Google is basically a modern day Midas. Given Apple might be doing better in the phone market, but that really is their forte.. And they have the trust of the people.. from selling them overpriced over secure crap.

Over security is nice when it comes to phones, keeps people from being able to make free phone calls and doing things that would otherwise make them happy. Which is a no-no in the world of electronics. Look at Microsoft they hate their Customers.. Loathe them. Don't trust them to be able to look at their own system files among other things.. But that's how they get ahead in this world. Hide everything behind the scenes, tell you it's good for you and charge you for it.

I sometimes wonder if video games were designed for Linux, and it wasn't so scary for the non-computer literate to start up, whether we'd have a larger trend of people walking away from the corporate giants that hold all the strings..  Well one step at a time.

Anyway it's cool to see google+ doing so well. The circles are kind of awesome so i'm looking forward to it getting more popular. No sketches as of yet but i'm going to work on it.. At some point i'm going to have to get better if i want to design games.
