Google's Social Networking Project callled Google+

Internet Giant company Google has come up with a whole new project and launched its much awaited Social Networking site Tuesday- June 28. it is expected to take on Facebook in the fast-growing social networking market and to keep up its dominance on the Web. It's called Google+.

Google+ allows users to share what they want with specific groups of people or social circles, instead of sharing with all friends and aims to help users easily organize contacts into groups. There are also some analysts saying that Google has simply added new features while adding a video chat feature.



As of now Google+ is only available by invitation only. Google+ will test whether Google can conquer its past flops in social networking, like Buzz and Orkut, and deal with one of the greatest challenges the company faces.

"Online sharing is awkward. Even broken. And we aim to fix it," Google's senior vice president for engineering Vic Gundotra said-Tuesday in a blog post about the much-awaited social networking enthusiasm from the internet giant.
