A quick note on Google+

Lots and lots of the people I normally get all with trying out a new web feature have had emails to Google+ and are having fin getting it working.
I haven't had an invite yet.
It looks cool. Nothing groundbreaking, but some substantially well through through UI tweaks to existing ideas (Dreamwidth users are probably pointing at the "Circles" idea and going "ours" quite a bit, whereas G+ is laughing at the management interface...)
So, y'know, if anyone has a spare invite kicking around ;-)
ETA: I know have an account, and it is good-never actually received an invite, I just got in via a link, weird.

This indicates "the first thing is not like LJ. The second thing is the opposite of that" [i.e. like LJ].
I'm still unable to have people in multiple circles; I will have to play with that a bit more and find out why.
