Google Plus members value their privacy

According to an analysis from data-mapper Matthew Hurst, new Google+ members may be seeing very little activity from the site’s 20 million users.

His analysis shows approximately 48 percent of Google+ users haven't posted publicly. One selling point for Google+ is that it gives users the chance to build in private groups from the ground up. Sure, you can make friend groups in Facebook, but I know I have better ways to spend my free time than sorting all the friends I've picked up through school and beyond into appropriate groups. But since Google+ has built that feature in, it’s easy to organize people as you move along. And it seems plenty of people are using that tool.
