That sounds cool. I haven’t gotten that involved yet, so I might have to try that out sometime.

Unfortunately, I’m thinking about making the switch to the iPhone, so I may not be able to take full advantage of it. We’ll see.

This is great for planning and coordinating on the go. What first started out as “Hey, wanna grab breakfast” between myself and two friends (one of them is the artistic director for the theatre I work at frequently) has turned into a great way to coordinate some things for the theatre. And since we all are on the Android bandwagon (some more than others), when someone wants to contribute or has a question, we are all involved instantly.

I have also tried the Hangout feature (I think it’s computer-only for now), which is essentially group video chat. It’s Telepresence for the masses. I got a few friends together, we just did a quick chat. Someone left and grabbed some food, it was fun. I could see this as a great tool for not only personal video chat (battling Skype), but also as a cheap teleconference solution. Combine a Hangout with Google Docs and you have most everything WebEx can do (aside from recording and actual desktop sharing — for now), but in the somewhat-benevolent umbrella of Google.

For actual social use, Facebook is still king. However, when you’re tired of liking kitten videos, etc., G+ has a bit more of what you may want as a communication tool.
