It may be like that but it is Google's first attempt in Social Media. You are enjoying the Social Media scene under the name of Google brand. The version that is being used is just an attempt not the full version so you can expect some new features in the future.
Its not an copy or latest version of orkut. Its a combination of Twitter and Facebook. Its really nice.
Let's see how long Google+ survives. I feel till now it has not done enough to compete with Facebook.
I don't think so. Orkut is entirely different from G+. It is taken from Facebook and Twitter similar features you can find ..
I don't think so. After the failure of orkut, Google has now launched a new social networking site with great features. It is inspired from Facebook and twitter but nowhere connected to Orkut. Two similarities between them are 1) Both are from Google and 2) Both are social networking sites.
orkut is mega hit in india and brazil only 8yrs gone still orkut is in beta version g+ is cool ..pleasant to eyes not much ads like FB it's a cross of fb + twitter i wish g+ should not bcum G-
