Roughly a month ago, Google unveiled its new answer to Social networking, Google+.

Google+ is the company's latest attempt at cracking the social networking world, after failing to gain any significant ground with Google Buzz and Google Wave.

After reading about it online and soaking up some of the hype, I thought I'd dive straight in and get a feel for the place! Luckily, I had received an invite from an old friend and didn't have to wait in the queue as Google+ is currently an 'invite only' service, until all the kinks are ironed out.
