does anyone have an invite?

Website · by **TheyWalkedInLine 2.0** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:12 am

Does this have something to do with the black bar that Google added?

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:14 am

http://plus.google.com/

Already invited? We've temporarily exceeded our capacity. Please try again soon.

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:19 am

I still want an invite for when they open it up again.

by **crustiesw/iphones** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:21 am

everyone should sign up for google plus and music
shit's gonna be tight

by **Maximilian Aue** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:24 am

Hope it would be better than facebook, which is in fact annoying.

Is this gonna bomb like Google Wave?

I think one of the biggest problems with Google Wave is that it just didn't work at all.

this looks like it's a little more put together than Google Wave.

You cool guys are on top of all the coolest social networking sites. I can't wait to make a profile on this to add to my ever-burgeoning gallery of virtual shrines I've fashioned for and of myself.

Google sticking it's nose where it doesn't belong. They should just stick to what they do well, cloud-based services and search engines. Wave was shit.

cool story, bro.

by **johnfuchs** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:38 am

my friend works at google, she said she sent me one but I never got it. :smt013

by **Redbeard the Terrible** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:40 am

wave sucked, hopefully they learned.

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:42 am

Wave was aimed more at office/work networking.

tons of the google labs 'apps' are, and they do it well. unfortunately, wave just didn't work well. that, or it was the answer to a question nobody was asking.

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:50 am

I'm not saying it wasn't terrible, I'm just saying that + is something completely different.

by **Maximilian Aue** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:52 am

So, how can I get the invitation? Anyone?

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:55 am

get in line.

by **johnfuchs** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:55 am

you can't. you have to wait for them to open invites again. i guess everyone is pretty bored with it already since there are very few people on it.

Actually, you might realize that I wasn't telling a story. I was just playing my role as the token passive-aggressive asshole. No narratives, all naysaying. Dummy.

haven't they been working on this for quite a few years now?

by **chrissy** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 12:44 pm

I believe so.

by **bert2** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 12:44 pm

Two things.

I have gmail invites if anyone wants one.

Was I the only person who liked Wave?

I'm pretty sure gmail is open to the public now.

I've said it before, I'll say it again--Google = Terminator.

Yeah, now I know. I'm an Euro and don't understand all your English language nuances.

I am quite warm and contented up here. Is it humid and stifling down in your intellectual mire?

let's go back and asks ourselves who's trolling a thread about something they have no interest in, nice life.

I loved wave. It made coordinating projects much easier. Or working on coauthoring stuff easier. But, it is dead now, :smt010

Geez, this is getting a little too real for me. I was just having a little fun until you had to go and break me down like that. My life...what am I doing here? What's my purpose here? Do these wasted days mean anything at all? Is there some solemn poetry in my overpouring sadness? Am I of value to anyone? Is life just a dream...a nightmare?

Wake up and acknowledge me! Show me that my words have weight. Validate my existence because Google+ just isn't cutting it.

blurple for invites!

by **reFOUNTAINel** » Wed Jun 29, 2011 3:39 pm

Well I signed up for the "waiting list". If anyone ever does have open invites, one would be appreciated.

From what I have heard, the invites are held by google employees only, and they cannot send them to outsiders.
