I opened my google + account a few weeks ago, and the first impressions where not very good.

From what I see, its all about adding friends.

Where is the stuff like linking your youtube account and your blogger account with your google plus account? I would like to import my youtube videos into my google plus account, where is that feature. What about my blogger account, how do I link it to my plus account?

Tell Google. That's why they have betas. Nothing will get done if no one says anything.

Considering google owns youtube and blogger, having google plus, youtube and blogger all linked seems like common sense.

At the very least give people the option to import their youtube videos or import their blog post from blogger.

I'm not really enjoying it at the moment, but it's because hardly anyone is either using it or is even a member

Honestly though, I don't see "grandma and grandpa" figuring it out...but then again...maybe thats not such a bad thing

Should we start a google+ atot circle?

Unless this is sarcasm, this is exactly what you currently can't have at G+. You can't have static groups at G+ (yet), which is what Trident has been complaining about.

You of course can have your own 'ATOT' circle, but everybody in it may or may not have an 'ATOT' circle, and even if they do, it might not contain the same people as your 'ATOT' circle.
