Google+ Goes Public, Hangouts and Other Features Coming to iOS

Is it just me, or does it seem like the 'buzz' around Google+ has quieted down over the last month or so? Now it just reminds me of that toy you begged for in the store as a kid, and then only played with for 10 minutes after you got home.

But maybe that'll change. Maybe it'll find its sweet spot, somewhere between the family and friend oriented Facebook and the here and now news of Twitter. We'll find out in the coming months, as the previously invitation-only service just went public...
