I used Google+ for a while. Early on. I tried tweaking it once to see if I could hone in on a better and more optimal content delivery for myself and, in doing so, lost contact with someone I was developing a pretty good rapport with. That told me that allowing users to pick their own content mix, at least the way Google was doing it, wasn't necessarily a good idea. But, and here's the kicker, it's still a better idea than how Facebook does it.
Gotta hand it to a post that uses "balls" and "nipples" in one read without making me reach for a Kleenex.
I do what I can. I definitely prefer G+ to FB, not least because I can actually use it for a purpose, rather than a surrogate television. In many ways, that's what FB has become.
That is very true.
