Google+ members are now at 43 Million?

If you come to think of this, Google is the number one search engine in the world right? and Facebook is the number one social networking site. Since Facebook started they made an impact to all internet users and up to now they become bigger and better. Google sees that impact, so I think they decide to bring up their own social networking site, Google+.

My point here, it is not impossible to have a huge members for your website if you already have one very well-known "name", or simply to says, "Google." 

There's a lot of people using Google as their primary searching tool, references and many more. With that idea, I think Google find another source of traffic by taking care of their audiences by giving direct access to social networking site at the same time searching tools.

Aside from that, some technology site noted the recently Facebook users interface changes, where about 72.2 percent of Facebook users hate it. And I think Google got the right timing to make Google+ open to the public. Google+ is absolutely growing to 30 percent in just 2 days and with a base of nearly 30 million members already.

Here's the post of Paul Allen in his Google+ account:

"Here are my latest estimates:

On September 9, our model showed 28.7 million users
This morning, our model shows 37.8 million users, with most of the growth coming in the last 2 days
By adding a fudge factor (see below) to account for private user profiles and for non-Roman surnames (both of which are totally overlooked by our surname counting model), my current estimate is 43.4 million users "

Paul added, “Google is a company that has had the incredible discipline for more than a decade to use a very simple, minimalist design on its home page along with a long search box to encourage longer queries. Changes to home page links are very infrequent. The popularity of its home page never led Google to turn itself into a portal, with hundreds of links and a few lucrative ads. Given that discipline, I think the tens of millions of people who will be signing up for and using Google+ will find that changes here will be very well thought out, very iterative, very carefully tested, and won’t be nearly as jarring as the changes that have been made at other social networks. Google is not in a rush to change the world. They are on a steady course to do so."
