Remember how Google tried to shove Google+ down everyone's throat? And G+ was a better social network compared to Facebook.
And now we're talking slop that people REALLY disn't ask for.
Google+ was a great product when it first launched and was quite popular among the tech crowd. I remember having a G+ page and using it more than I ever wanted to use Facebook and co. It was a pretty well liked product among its niche userbase but then they tried to shove it into YouTube and force everyone to use it for YouTube interactions and then everyone hated it. Forcing your product where it doesn't belong is a great way to dumpster your product's reputation.
