Google Plus Social NetworkGoogle is always trying and bringing amazing applications for everyone. Say hello to Google Plus (Google+)Google Plus is going to be an all in one real time social place to share and connect with people. It is said to bring Facebook usage down. Google Plus is invitation only based yet, but you can give your email to avail this service whenever they decide to open it for more people.  Google Plus uses HTML5 and Javascript. You will be able to do video chat with more than one people with Google Plus Social Network. Group video chat is coming in Google Plus. Yes, imagine video conference with co-workers or video chat with family members from different places at the same time, at the same web application. Upload images and videos instantly. Share in real time – just like in real life. Google Plus is a response to Facebook. I don’t know how people will find it,  better then Facebook or not.

Google+ project primarily consists of four main elements including:
·  Google Circle:
This new service looks to be revolving around a toolbar and new ‘Google Circles’ where user can share share different things with different people. Circles makes it easy to put your friends from one birthday party in one circle, your office contacts in another, and a different circle for your family.

·  Google Hangouts:
Video chat has always been an attraction for friends and family to share and hence the approach taken by Google here makes lot of sense. Hangout lets friends notify each other that they’re willing to chat from anywhere, It will also notify other members of the circle incase a chat starts in a circle.

·  Sparks:
Similar to you sharing stories on facebook, Google has planned for sparks where you can intiate a spark by starting a thread of interest in a circle.

·  Mobile:
This is only to available to Android users as of now, Using this application users can tag posts to the Google+ page with your geo-location, Once you have added the picture to your Google+ page you can share it with your circles in realtime. 

Share in your Views on Google PLUS!!!
