I don't know about google+ but I think facebook you can disallow people tagging you (you can for check-ins but not so sure on photos and videos).
I love how you stick your opinion in places where no one cares. No one is forcing you to comment, you don't like it don't comment. In fact, Google+ is great for letting my chat with my cousins spread through out the country, and one of my best friends who moved to Minnesota. So staying in touch with friends and cousins is boring?Another boring social network? Yawn....
Wish this stupid fad would die off.

The current G+ is just the beginning. Right now Google is in competition with FB and Twitter, two very established communities. I suspect that Google+ will end up being the backbone to migrate localized computing to "the cloud" and integration with google documents, calendar, mail, apps, and other services. This isn't so much a shot at Facebook and Twitter as it is at Microsoft and Apple.
This. As transportation has gotten more affordable, people are moving further away from each other. Social networks allow us to communicate in a way that's less costly than phone calls, more efficient than letters, and in some ways with video chat more intimate than email. With huddles/group messaging, you can talk to a group of family and friends...something that's a pain on the phone...even with smartphones, and email is too slow.
Then again, what do I know....I still use IM on a daily basis + prefer offline E-Mail programs like Outlook.

If you, or anyone else, could send me an invite it would be appreciated. I'm not into social networking but had a bit of an idea this morning and I'll need an account to try it out. TIA.Anyone who wants an invite, just ask.
