An article that gets Google+ right

I signed up for Google+ as soon as I could, mostly just to see what it was like. While there were a number of things that I immedilately liked about it, this article explains exactly why I never went back to it after a few days of experimenting with it. I can't bear the thought of having to categorize every single one of my online relationships. Yuck:

What the ad has so effectively demonstrated is the incredible amount of work it involves to constantly qualify our interpersonal relationships. To be fair, neither Facebook nor Google+ have gotten this 100% right. Friendships aren’t binary (friend or not) as they are by default Facebook, but they’re also not meant to be obsessively organized into groups like they are on Google+. Relationships change. They’re dynamic. And herein lies the problem with this aspect of the Google+ value proposition: Circles don’t work.
