“Google Plus” which is Google’s new online social
networking service has crossed 90 million users mark since its launch in June.
Google Plus now has attracted over 90 million users, which is reflecting the
huge interest in the social networking site in recent times. Eventually it was
opened to the public on September 20, last year. Google reported around 40
Million users in the month of October.
Earlier “Google Plus” is only available in the trail mode through invitations. Later Google launched it globally. People love this new approach to make a circle of friends. They love it, and the result is over 90 Million users in such a short time, while the rival Facebook took 4 years to achieve 90 Million users. Facebook opened on 2004, and now it has over 800 Million users globally.
"I am super excited about the growth of ...Google Plus, which now has 90 million users globally - well over double what I announced just three months ago. By building a meaningful relationship with our users through Google Plus we will create amazing experiences across our services," Google CEO Larry Page said while announcing the company's latest quarterly earnings.
Google unveiled 'Google Plus' in late June as part of efforts to garner a share of the lucrative social networking space that has so far been dominated by Mark Zuckerberg--led Facebook. Since launch, Google has added toolbars and other buttons on its websites to aggressively promote the service, and it works. Users love the ideas a lot and they use it to promote their business, to stay connected with friends and families etc etc.
During the quarter, Google has reported a net income to $ 2.71 billion in for October-December, which analysts termed as below market expectation. It registered revenue of $ 10.58 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, an increase of 25 per cent from the year-ago period.
Seeing this awesome growth Google assure that they will
add more exciting features and toolbars to “Google Plus” to make it even
better. They will update it regularly, so we can expect that by 2012 it will
cross 300 Million active user marks.
