Thing is it's ok it displaying my Tweets and blog posts but then I could end up with people replying to them in both locations which can cause confusion and end up with you answering the same question twice.

I agree, it just feels like another status to update. Unless it picks up some serious popularity, I'll be ignoring it. I don't see a reason to replace Twitter or Facebook with it, and I'd prefer not to add another social networking outlet to my current workload - unless, as noted, it picks up serious popularity.

i agree with ahstanford. i do like it, but i wont replace facebook or twitter with it unless heaps of other people do. i dont think its going to take off, because its a gmail thing. even though gmail is better than pretty much all the other webmails, doesnt change the fact more people use hotmail

It needs designing properly as it looks too much like the twitter feed in an ugly less friendly version.

to be honest i think it looks pretty good. fairly simple thing. i just barely use it because pretty much none of my mates here use gmail. i have 2 followers lol

I think that it allows too much to be posted at once as posts can be huge and a redesign would be good too. Other than that I like it. It is like a facebook that runs itself, also it follows people automatically which I am all for!

I agree - though I don't use it - I appreciate the minimalism, usability and clarity of Google's designs.
