Hi tech fans, recently there have been rumors about this

new social networking site that some thinks that this will

be the one replacing Facebook from its throne. Here are

some features of Google+ ”

1) +Circles: More Privacy Control

Instead of Friends’ list on Facebook, Google+ groups a

user’s friends through +Circles. Google+ users have more

control about which groups of friends see a photo or

status update, which could give Google+ an edge in

privacy control.

“This is really important to us. On Google+, you should

be in control of who sees your posts,” says Kelly Ellis, a

Google engineer, on her Google+ page.

Google+ users can drag their friends into social “circles”

they create. They are designed to ensure that the

information shared within the group remains private. For

example, users can designate circles by “Acquaintances,”

“Co-workers,” and “Family.”

2) +Hangouts: Group Video Chat For Up to 10 People

The fact that Facebook currently has no video chat feature

has already cause techies to point out where Google+ is

ahead of the social networking game. In Google+, up to

10 people can video chat through +Hangouts.

“Whether it’s inside a pub or on a front porch, human

beings have always enjoyed hanging out. By combining

the casual meetup with live multi-person video, Hangouts

lets you stop by when you’re free, and spend time with

your Circles,” Google said.

PCWorld has said the built-in group video chat is a

feature that Google+ will give Facebook “serious

competition” over. It is rumored by TechCrunch that

Facebook will beat back the “Hangout” feature by

launching a Skype-powered video chat on Wednesday.

3) +Sparks: Decide Who to Share Topics/News With

+Sparks “looks for videos and articles it thinks you’ll like,

so when you’re free, there’s always something to watch,

read, and share.” A Google+ user may see a topic or news

that they might only want to share with certain Circles in

their social network. Through Sparks, interesting topics

can be shared with one person, one Circle or every

connection on Google+.

Sparks is basically a re-packaging of the news

powerhouse Google News into a Facebook-like and

Twitter-like
