Nope, I don't get Google+

And I have the sneaking suspicion that nobody is really using it...(and by 'nobody' I mean way fewer people than actively/daily use Facebook or Twitter, etc.)

Or maybe, per the Atlantic Wire, that's not the point: 

"Google has a different kind of thing that it wants to build. Facebook is the social network. Google+ is more like a "a social layer stretched atop Google," as The Next Web's Harison Weber put it. Maybe it doesn't matter that people don't visit the actual Google+ site, it isn't solely reliant on that kind of advertising, like Facebook. It can use those +1s and the social connections of the other 73 percent to better its search engine for example."

Um, okay.

But I still don't get it.
