Has anyone started a Google+ circle for XDA Galaxy S2 users? There is a good group going over at the Tab 10.1 forum and it's working well.
You can circle me at http://gplus.to/seanjobig

This is stupid because circles in Google+ don't work globally.
There would be better to create a group on Facebook.

You can make your own circles, no one will be able to see your circles

Exactly.

It works nicely to get posts from people with similar interests in Google+
And i dont really use facebook anymore. G+ is especially better for this kind of situation where dont necessarily want to be friends, just casualky check and comment.

Hey XDA,
Came across this, its a 374 Page Guide to Gingerbread. Maybe theres some not too well known secrets within the pages? Im sure not going to read it all but maybe some of you would like to glance over it.

In addition to what's in the video, there are on-site dentists, mechanics, pet spas, game rooms, slides, bicycles, no dress code, dinosaurs, etc.
I seen that there was a XDA circle made for people.
and was thinking for people who's testing out google+ and needs friends that we start possibly a google+ circle for epic 4g owners since we are small but great community :]
just wondering on people's thoughts of this.
I started putting some of the people from here into my XDA Circle
look up my username as i set it as my nickname. and add me to your circles :]
Goodidea...is ur username the same as on here?

This sounds like a great idea. I have been wanting to give google+ a fair shake but without anyone I know on it there isn't much to do.

well it's more for the fact that a lot of people real life friends and so on most likely don't wanna just jump on the wagon yet. so people are making google+ profiles and haven't no friends or no circles yet. and it's a good way to get to know the community
Sure i'll try it

whats the problem with whatsapp ?
Whatsapp? Its a bad idea. You would have to divulge your personal phone number. If you are comfortable with doing that there is still the issue of annoying noobs that keep on asking for ETAs. Imagine that, you phone going off every few seconds because someone asks a question that has been answered before or posts "CAN I HAZ ROM PLZ".

Basically you make a new circle and name it Xda and then add all the xda members you can find in the xda circle
Just Search for XDA on google plus, there seems to be a couple of pages out there
You can start adding people who post on the thread to you XDA circle
You will find quiet a few Top Devs there
There was actually a post about this in this same forum if you care to search or will update later

Whatsapp was a bad idea since everyone is required to have each others phone numbers, but why create a Facebook group, surely there is enough of these group pages out there, plus not all of us have facebook.
Surely, there are other alternatives out there, such as Google+ as suggested, Touch (PingChat), Kik, Microsoft Lync etc...
After Google I/O 2013 there were so many great features about Google+ I wanted to use more often but hardly any of my friends use G+. I was wondering if any of you guys had it and want to add each other so we can all use the new G+ a little more often. Pretty much all of my posts/shares/likes/etc pertain to tech/Google/Android anyway.
I haven't done much on my profile since G+ came out way back when, but here it is if you want to add me, feel free to post on my page or share stuff: Syn Ack
Feel free to add your profile links here too and we can all add each other. I will put you in my HTC One circle.
I recommend going to http://gplus.to/ and then posting your link in that format.
Just post your link below and I will copy it to the list. Mine is gplus.to/Synacks

I find it fascinating that G+ has more users than Twitter but not a single friend of mine uses it. I've been trying to push it, but doesn't seem to be gaining much traction ):
Added btw

I don't see where you added me, maybe I don't know enough about G+ yet. But it's certainly got a better layout and more features than Facebook.

I just added you to my Circles, I guess it's like "liking" a FB page, where you don't get friend requests, just that your posts get shared to those following. Probably, haven't really used it too
I have to admit I prefer G+ over all other social media sites. There is just not enough of a user base in my real life circles and the people who are on it don't have a clue how to use it.

Please rename thread to smth like: Google+ Hangout for HTC One users.
The way it is named atm, I have to move it to General section as it is not Device related.

@Syn Ack - maybe it would be a good idea to set this thread up like the Sensation g+ has been done.
This will make it easier for everyone to add others rather than having to look through loads of pages just to add people.
Using the short URLs, as mentioned in the other threads OP, would be a good idea aswell rather than post massive links
Here's a link to mine anyway - KidCarter93
For all people who use the shortening site, please put your nickname as your XDA username. It makes it easier for the rest of us that way

Faster for what? It also get horrible clutterd in whatsapp so best way for help is the forum where people that come in on a later date can always do a search and see if anyone already had the same problems.

Thats your opinion ???? if i and others want to use whatsapp why does that has to do with you
Well if others wanted to use this then this topic would been packed with people but it isnt. First of all what does it add? Nothing! Unless you know everything bout samsung which is highly doubtful and again its useless for future people that might have problems and cant even search for it because they aint part of the whatsapp group. So you can keep saying that its mine opinion but that just shows the lack of intelligence you have. Whatsapp can be good just for general talk but not for things like this and thats why not many people will join you.
There is a whatsapp group already. You should check before posting.
