I am not using google+ yet either. Just feels like a waste of time since everyone is on facebook. Who needs another social network? It feels like the only people that will be using google+ are the affiliates, trying to push their product/sites. The rest will stick to facebook. I mean, most facebook profiles have tones of pictures and friends. Why would anyone want to create/copy to google? I am not feeling it.

I wouldn’t ignore google+ entirely. Yes, from a marketing stand point on the pages and such perhaps it doesn’t make sense since facebook and twitter is out there. But google+ is beginning to influence search results, as I’m sure you’ve noticed in some of google’s recent updates.

I think it is still worthwhile to have a +1 button on your content pages, as google is now taking user behavior and social interactions into account when ranking pages. Only question is, will the people who +1 your content get banned? That’s what I’m not sure about
