    Privacy considerations aside (Google seems to mention nothing about this), I just can't see Google+ surviving, no matter how much money they throw at it.

    The simple reality is that Facebook hasn't just cornered the social networking market; they've got it locked up in a fortress.

    On the other end of the spectrum, they won't be able to make in-roads on the business networking end (if they intended to, which they probably didn't) because LinkedIn has that locked down as well, and have for years.

    In between, Twitter has micro-blogging nicely tucked away in its pocket.

    Fact is, anyone who comes in this late in the game, hoping to make a good go of it had better have something really, really, REALLY special on offer that users will absolutely, positively want to explore. Otherwise, it's a waste of time and money.
