Google has introduces its social networking site Google+, which is attracting investors and users these days. The new Google Plus is expected to be a big threat for existing social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Earlier, a social media site, Orkut, was completely eradicated in terms of popularity and functionality by the newly launched Facebook and now users are eyeing on Google Plus.

The features of Google+ are quiet similar to that of Facebook and Google `Stream' is the equivalent of Facebook's scroll newsfeed. There are other similar features such as share, edit, host photos and videos, and delete.

In Google Plus, users will be able to create their own social spheres, including friends, acquaintances, colleagues and contacts in different circles. Users can choose specific information they want to share with various groups in their profile. Google Plus will not have any games for users. The website may take some time to operate initially but is easy to use.

Mobile Google Plus is considered as best for Apple's iOS and is functional on the Android platform but is not designed to work on the Symbian platform.
