You share different things with different people. But sharing the right stuff with the right people is the best part of Circles in Google+. Circles makes it easy to put your friends , your parents in another, and your boss in a circle by himself, just like real life.
While adding friends you can drag your friends profiles into the circles you like to place.
Google+ Stream
Stream seems a suitable word for the real life sharing and it functions similar to Facebook Wall.

Google+ Hangouts
Bumping into friends while you are out and about is one of the best parts of going out and about. With Hangouts, the unplanned meet-up comes to the web for the first time. It Lets buddies know you’re hanging out and see who drops by for a face-to-face-to-face chat.

Good….
I heard from a computer guy that Google+ may end up being better than Facebook. Unfortunately, I’m not sure how many people, especially those who are of the older set, will want to move all of their stuff over to a new board and learn something new.
But always People go, for best service which offers lots of features. Like, We go for Phones and Laptops with awesome configuration. 🙂
G+ can’t beat FB.. At least I don’t want them to 😀
