Circles Fatigue: The Dark Side Of Google+

If a user wants G+ to be like Facebook's friend system they can just make one circle called "Everyone."

His main complaint about Circles is that it's too hard to have all that freedom.

Wah wah wah.

You can make yourself crazy making circles, until you realize it's all about levels of sharing.

There's stuff I want to share with my family, there's stuff I want to share with my coworkers, and there's stuff I want to share with my friends/coworkers who are "geeky". I don't really care if George is from Fast Company or fastcompany.com. I just know he likes Jazz and would appreciate this John Coltrane video I found.

This is not only a dupe, it's linkbait.

Tech writers need to do one of two things:

1. Stop pontificating about the details of a service when it's in a very early adoption phase

or, since they can't stop pontificating about the newest thing to come out:

2. label their articles as info "For Early Adopters" or "For Normals". In big, bold letters.

That will save them a lot of embarrassment.
