Interesting development in the world of Google+. This is one area I have been following, somewhat. It is great to see that Google+ is in fact putting effort into developing this network instead of ditching it like they have so many other projects (and social networks.)
Personally, I don't see this feature as "revolutionary." For me, it doesn't add much value to the social network aspect of Google+. I do suppose some people might find it handy, but to me it is just one step above a "hash tag."
More big picture, this is a sign (for now) that Google+ is here to stay, and something they are investing in.
Anyone with insider knowledge have anything to say about this?
I don't have insider knowledge, but I disagree that it's nice they're putting effort into it. Google+ was never about users -- it was about fear of Facebook.
I hate few products/brands as much as I hate Google+, if only because it's a bald-faced (and somewhat successful) attempt at eroding privacy for Gmail users. I don't want to see more features. I want it to die.
