Google+ wins Apple's approval

Baby face squeeze app arrives
Tue Jul 19 2011, 17:50

FACEBOOK CEO Mark Zuckerberg's favourite social networking web site, Google+ has won favour with Apple and has been approved on its Itunes App Store.

Apple announced the approval this afternoon to, we assume, much whooping at Google's offices.

"Google+ iPhone app finally released!," reads a tweet on an unofficial Google+ Twitter feed that points to the app in question at Itunes.

Google hasn't officially commented, but it's there for all to see. Google+ is available, and free to use for any Iphone 3, 3S, or 4 user. It is also being used to show off how malleable a baby's face is, which is interesting, at the very least. µ

Funny that you call it ironic as it isn't it's still in development,
calling that ironic is saying that Facebook is for not having a share link on this site when it was in early dev.

Google has won me over with it's open environment even though sometimes their development process takes a while in the long run it's worth it and I can make a safe prediction this will be a hit once it has a public release instead of a closed controlled testing environment so just wait and see...

""It is a media ploy to make people think there are millions of participants already using the system. Stay at facebook. Why create another social networking site that is supposed to be the same as facebook.""

Why you ask? It's easy. You can't trust Facebook, the privacy settings are cumbersom, and Google+ is clean looking. Simple looking. Google+ will overtake facebook and it should.

It's ironic to see how many users are using this product within a matter of weeks....and I can't even sign up yet.(not that I care too)

It is a media ploy to make people think there are millions of participants already using the system. Stay at facebook. Why create another social networking site that is supposed to be the same as facebook.

iPhone only?

hmm, doesn't appear to be available when I browse for it in the app store with an iPod touch.

Ironic that I can't click a button at the bottom of this article to share it on Google Plus...
