Can Google + (Plus Google) steals a user of Facebook? Yes. There are several good reasons to switch from Facebook to Google +, ranging from the easy to use data privacy. The question "Can Google + beat Facebook?". The real question may not be too precise. This is not about one site against another site. Google + bigger than that. The reason why Google calls "Google Project +" + is that Google will become a central part of Google's overall identity. It will reshape the company. So the more appropriate question is "Can Google beat Facebook?" If it is placed like that, the contest appears to be much more balanced. Of course Facebook has a great beginning, but there are some good reasons for people to seriously leave Facebook for Google +. There are at least nine reasons as cited kompasianer, Oscar, from PCWorld.
1. Integration with Google services
Owned the largest portion of Google to attract people use Google + is integration. This means that Google will build Google + features and equipment to almost all its online services ranging from documents to video search. + Google already integrated into almost all Google products.
This allows you to monitor all events Google + (message, updates, etc.) when sharing content with friends without leaving the Google service you're using. Millions of people use the free Google services (Gmail, Documents, Search, etc..), And the attachment of these services with Google + might be easy for someone to leave Facebook.
2. Management better friendships
Google's true that the concept of "circles" or Circle more in line with the way we are friends in real life. We have many kind friends, and we interact and communicate with them in different ways. Facebook Groups feature allows you to form a special group of friends, but compared to that done on Google +, it seems impractical. Besides, Facebook is still a new feature groups (additional), while the Circle is the cornerstone of Google's platform +.
3. Better mobile applications
If you are a user of Android, you can tell that get content from your phone to a social platform easier, cleaner, more functionality with Google's mobile + applications. These applications had been steady, but Google will still seek and find ways to make the Android you become a member of the body of your + Google social platform. Google hopes to use its Android user base as large as a part against Facebook, that its mobile application though looks pretty but a bit clunky to use.
4. Easier to find things to be divided
Spark features Google + is one more important thing that distinguishes it from Facebook. Spark is where Google leverage its search engine to do something that can not be done is to give Facebook users an instant flow of information relevant to share with friends. Because Facebook does not have a search engine, users must leave the site looking for data that can be divided or waiting for their friends to share it with them. The question "how do I look for something to be shared" directly answered by Spark.
5. You can retrieve your data
Facebook is known less reliable handling personal data. Suppose you were forced to make certain parts of your personal data appear to the public, and it is very difficult to permanently delete your Facebook profile. On the other hand, Google makes it possible for you to retrieve all the data you place on Google + and left. This is done through the Google + called "Data Liberation". With just a few clicks you can download data from your Picasa Web Albums, Google Profile, Google + stream, Buzz and contacts.
6. Label better photographs
When viewing images on Google + you can label the name of the people in it like on Facebook. You make a small square around their faces, then type in their name in the box below or choose one of the guessed name Google +. But there is a big difference in where Google takes the privacy aspects of the label image. When you label someone, there will be a record like this "Adding a label it should tell people that you label it. They can be related photos and albums". On the other hand, Facebook does not make an effort to warn people that they have been labeled (perhaps only in a photograph that is not good) and give them a direct opportunity to remove (remove) label.
Google has also decided to slightly embarrassed to use facial recognition software, which now use Facebook to automatically identify people in photos are uploaded to the album the user.
7. Features a solid group chat
Google + has a feature that beat up in the affairs of the chat. Easy to create a special group video chat using the Google + Hangouts features, and create a special group for the chat seems to be something natural and fun to do in social networking. A similar case was conducted by Huddle mobile application that allows users Android launch group text chat. Facebook does not offer this device.
8. Dividing the content more secure
Prompts privacy has long been asking the social networking site to allow the user to specify the level of privacy of any content that is shared, rather than using a list of initial settings that determine all the shared content. Google seems to hear the request, and build these capabilities into Google +. For example, if I share an article or upload images from camera, Google + gives me the option circle of friends where I want to share content. + it is Google's advantage.
9. Google better care of your personal data
Running a social networking, it's all about responsibility to take care of users' personal information. Facebook is a fast moving young company that has been proven cavalier in its movement, is less concerned about the privacy of user data, and easily accessible to others. On the other hand, Google is a much more mature company that looks much more reliable than Facebook. The most part, Google has been operating under the slogan "Do not Be Evil".
