Agree with Renee and LostSheep. Very few people in my circles at the mo' but I am liking the functionality and usability quite a bit.

Controlling who sees what is easy and very useful. The word "Friend" means totally different things to me and Mr. Zuckerberg. This limits the value to FB to me quite a bit.

Someone at Google has taken very careful note of FB's strengths and weaknesses. If they continue to execute like this they may have a real hit. This is coming from someone who thought Wave and Buzz were cool tech but poor general communication tools.

Which is why I think the "Acquaintance" circle is hilarious. Basically, you can put anyone there who you don't want to offend by not adding them, but you don't ever want to share anything with...

Security and who sees what is also something we're going to be taking a detailed look at with the upcoming redesign of BT. Good ideas to be had with Google+

I haz it too.  Started setting up my circles and got bored. 

I do like the idea of different circles to share stuff with.  Maybe it will limit people's "bragging" about their lives.  Or spare people not in the right circle of having to read it.  I am amazed at some of the stuff people will post about their lives on FB.

I agree with the above.  That is my biggest annoyance with Facebook, the fact that many confuse it with Twitter.  If I want to know about your activities in 10 minute intervals, get a Twitter account and allow me the option of choosing to follow you or not ... I have too many "friends" that use Facebook Wall posts as a way to subject me to an involuntary Twitter feed   Thank you for telling me where you just checked in, I was really wondering where you were at this exact moment. 

I guess its really my fault for accepting friend requests or not just hiding them, which is a growing list.  These Google Circles are intriguing at the very least.

I think I'm about to make a circle for those that share too much. I really truly don't care to hear a play by play of your annoying day at work. I don't have a Twitter account for a reason.

I hope more people will give Google+ a  try. It may take a few years for a full migration from FB to G+, but I think once it gets all worked out and everyone figures how it functions it will be better than FB.
