Lies, damn lies, and statistics. G+ membership is distorted because basically google has effectively bribed companies into supporting G+ by quietly improving your quality score if you have a page, and even more if you use their social login (which, to be fair, is less flaky than Facebook connect.) it doesn't mean people are actually using G+ though; our engagement stats are pitiful compared to Facebook or Twitter, and most people are in the same boat; lots of "members" but no one actually doing anything.

This:

Big G said:
A lot more than you think. Remember there's much more to Google+ than people updating a status saying "Just made the best cheese sandwich ever - best weekend, with best friends and the best cheese.

and this:

That's the point that Raven and myself have both made: their social network is not a direct use per sé, such as an "awesome cheese sandwich" Facebook affair, but rather an insidious use via other social services. Maybe that's the way to go?

Nobody make me say "there's more to G+ use than logging in and actually using it" again.

Well then they can't include those statistics as people "logging into G+" then because it's completely distorted against people actually logging into Facebook or whatever. If I login to check my gmail, I'm logging into G+. If I go into Google Drive, I'm logging into G+. I would imagine every single Android user is somehow logged into G+ as well. So, in actual fact, there aren't anywhere near as many actual G+ users as there are Facebook users. The fact that "there's more to G+ use than logging in and actually using it" means the figures are meaningless. If you could see figures for just the "social networking" arm of G+ you might have something worth making a graph over.

.. and what about all the stats where social logins are required for comments on webpages via Facebook? or what about Flickr usage via Yahoo? or what about the fact that Facebook is effectively always logged in on your phone / tablet etc?

I think you're missing my point - my original response was to your comment that noone uses Google+ which is simply not true - but that depends on your definition of a user. Do people login to Google+ and actively update their status to say "I just did a massive jobby - best weekend ever"? Probably not. Do people log in to Facebook for shit chat? Absolutely, and I guarantee there's truck loads more of that on Facebook than on Google+. Do people login to Google+ for numerous other services? for the tenth fucking time, yes and that's why the stats are on the up :).

Marketers don't give a fuck about how many logins Facebook or G+ or Twitter have, all they care about now is the number of people who actually engage with their content, as in read, share etc. (Even Facebook likes are now largely regarded as irrelevant), and on that basis, most marketers would tell you Twitter>FB>G+. And yes (before anyone gets snotty about it) it is relevant what marketers think, because ultimately all social media is advertising media.

I don't think anyone's disagreeing or disputing that Gaff?

Weeelll, you did say "Facebook is on the slide (for now)" when you posted all those graphs, but in the only way that really matters, that's not actually true.

I read that article. Right at the bottom it claims her boy is looking stylish in black skinny-jeans and a dark blue tshirt. Well, I can't tell if that is an 800 dollah tshirt or whatever but to me he looks like a generic teenager, especially given the shoes and cap. So...unless generic teenagers suddnely have become stylish when I wasn't looking, their `celeb pap` writer needs to stop smoking the crack before turning up at work in the mornings.

Alright guys, need some help here. Went out two weeks ago, weekend, out with my bud and we sit down next to these girls, and after a while one started hitting on me while i was talking to her girlfriend. We move to next place, drink and dance, got thrown out for fooling around too much, move to her place, she pays for taxi and everything. Sexy tiems, sleep. Go home next day. I started texting her after two days and she writes back says it would be nice to meet again when there is time, she work and study.

Few texts back and forth, i think i get too much and mention how i think she kisses very good, so no response. Now yesterday i sent her a text that she should meet up today and go out, got a response that she'd like to but works late, (she works to 22-23 almost every day) but wishes us a good time.

So, how do i proceed now? Really really really do not want to fuck it up if it isn't already.

In this case, it might be seen as a tad too..hands on. A slight more cloak and dagger approach is nessecary. Am at a loss what to write really. Or if just to lay low until the weekend.
