Flowtown released an infographic called Who’s Using Google+ . For me the amount of inactive users is very interesting because I can relate to it. I find Google+ very tedious. It is not fast and simple for me. I am a Twitter addict and I have that down to a science with apps on computers and phones. Additionally, Twitter is much easier for me to follow as I work. Perhaps I just need to take the time to play with Google+, but I honestly don’t have the time.
Are you an active Google+ user? Anyone like me that just doesn’t have the time?

It’s still early on, but clearly Google+ is no “Facebook killer”. I think you are right when you mention lack of time. There is only so much time in the day to spend on social media, and if people are actually using Facebook it’s more conducive to spend your time there for the most part.
Love this piece! Dan Martell knows how to create great infographics and I’ve blogged about same myownself!
Google+ – no Facebook killer for sure, eh!

I’m a Twitter addict like you, and I think G+ was a completely unnecessary addition to the social media landscape. I don’t have the time for it but am a reluctant user.
Great infographic, as usual ;)
The only issue is, maybe text font is too small, even using the browser zoom.
I kind of wish for GG+ to fail because it would be one less social media site to keep up with.
