With Social, Sergey Brin And Vic Gundotra Say Google+ Is Playing A Different Game

Google founder Sergey Brin freely admits, "I am not a very social person myself." Speaking onstage at the Web 2.0 Summit with Google+ exec Vic Gundotra, Brin says that he thought Google+ would be too complicated, with all of its Circles and different ways to share with different groups of people. But he has been pleasantly surprised. "I have been able to reconnect with friends, I was not able to do that with existing services because of the way their sharing models work. The Circles worked very well for me, I debated they were too complicated. Now I use them." But of course he does. What about regular people? As Sean Parker pointed out on Monday, all of your friends are already on Facebook and it will be hard to get all of them to move over to Google+. "Your mom and friends, guess what, they are already on Google," responds Gundotra. Google will get them to use Google+ overtime.
