G+ and Facebook habits

This summer the buzz word have been Google Plus. Everybody talks about and everybody wants to be part of the “new Facebook”.
But many people takes there habits from Facebook with them to G+ and use G+ like Facebook, which I think is wrong.
G+ is not Facebook and I think that Google never meant it to be used like Facebook.

The big problem with Facebook, is that you get a bigger and bigger stream of data from your friends.
Much of my Facebook stream means nothing to me, because it’s about my friends being together with people I don’t know. Why should I see pictures from parties with people I don’t know?

That’s where the smart about G+ circles kicks in. From my point of view, a circle is a group of persons, who know each other. You can add people to more then one circle, if the person knows people in more then one group.
And you can add as many circles as you want. I got 14 circles at this time, and the number is increasing.

When you post pictures from parties, you can choose to share them with only that group of people, who knows the persons at the party. In this way, I don’t have to look at pictures with people I don’t know, because I’m simply not in that circle. And in the end my stream gets much more cleaner.

But allot of my friends that are coming from Facebook to G+ does not add allot of circles.
In fact they use the three(or four cannot remember :)  ) that is standard when you create you G+ profile. All of there friends they add to one big group called friends, and all of there family they add to another big group called family.
Why? Because it’s how Facebook works, and why allot of my stream means nothing to me…
