“Last month, a senior user experience researcher at Google, Paul Adams, gave a presentation entitled "The Real Life Social Network." The 224 slides, embedded below, describe some of the problems and common user behavior on existing social web sites, and suggest how to better design that experience. While the presentation is targeted towards businesses who want to use social media to get their message out, it also serves as a roadmap for what Google will attempt to do with Google Me. ¶ According to Adams, the biggest problem for users on social networks like Facebook is that all your "friends" are in one big bucket. Unlike real life, there's no way to differentiate how you act and interact with different groups of people in your life.” — http://www.thinkoutsidein.com/blog...#google_me - × × ×
в вейве можно было запускать волны с разным составом участников и получать отличные изолированные потоки внутри одного интерфейса. но никому не понравился вейв. - Иван
Я знаю людей, которым вейв очень понравился и приносит пользу, но таких, видимо, оказалось недостаточно. - mindszenty
После того, как они потренировались на <s>кроликах</s> вейве, можно и вейв закрыть (т.к. не особенно уже и нужен) и GoogleMe открыть - 50 оттенков кошкости
Ага, сейчас Me запустят с подробным инструментарием настройки групп друзей, массовый пользователь скажет «o_O» и через год её закроют как вейв. - alex@kapranoff.ru
В Facebook уже есть возможность разграничивать доступ к соцобъектам. Неудобно. - Кофе без сахара
При этом Facebook не дает фильтровать потоки от друзей. - Кофе без сахара
Размазанный социальный слой проходит под кодовым названием «Emerald Sea», интегрируется во всё, до чего дотянется, и сейчас активно обкатывается внутри компании: “Emerald City is the project name for what people outside of Google refer to as “Google Me”. Lots of existing projects like youtube, google docs, search, calendar, groups, picassa, etc have had significant social integrations added to them. This is an ongoing project that will launch as a major initiative across multiple services at once and many of the hooks endusers will see are currently being tested internally. It is by no means done and is extremely ambitious in nature.” — http://techcrunch.com/2010...http://techcrunch.com/2010... - × × ×

“Our strategy is not to win by just users who come to Google+,” Mr. Gundotra said. “It’s to activate the users of existing Google services like search, Maps and Android.”
By the end of the year, Google+ will work with more Google products, he said, so when someone wants to share a YouTube video, for instance, it will be easy to share it with a Google+ Circle directly from YouTube. The integration between Google+ and Google Apps will happen in the next few days, he said.
“When we’re done, Google is going to come across as a beautifully integrated set of services,” Mr. Gundotra said.” - × × ×
"They had assumed that Facebook’s growth would slow as it grew, and that Facebook wouldn’t be able to have too much leverage over them, but then it just didn’t stop, and now they are really scared" - с трудом представляю себе really scared Google :) - Phil Smirnov
