Note: There's a reason supermarket chains produce their own, knock-off brands of soda that are cheaper and taste mostly the same as the brand-name. And it's not because nobody buys them.
To date Google+ hasn't actually released a clear engagement metric such as how many people have made a post in the past 30 days.

You're proving me correct by arguing that Plus is equivelent to Supermarket cola. That's an epic failure for google. They launched Plus to become a competitor to Facebook the same way Pepsi competes with Coke. You're conceding that Plus is no Pepsi - and that makes it as good as dead.
So when they do, you'll claim that Youtube comments don't count right?
"Last week, the company parted ways with Vic Gundotra, a talented executive who led Google+ through a thick fog of expectations. The company is also reported to be reassigning team members and sub-products (possibly Hangouts) to other business units. "
He acknowledges that for some things like tech discussion G+ is doing fine. The argument is that, organizationally, Google itself is pivoting away from G+.
Nobody I know uses it, those youtube comments look like fabricated conversations, the level of spying by google is just downright creepy.
G+ will never fly, it's a dead product like Glass.
