Three weeks into its launch, Google+ hits 20 million by July 21st. This leap was just after one week when the CEO Larry Page publicly announced that they got 10 million unique visitors.

There are endless ways on enjoying these features online. But then of course, sometimes it get to the point wherein it couldn’t be more annoying than any other possible things you can think of.

Uniting more than seven hundred million people in one global network is a feat to boast for. But just about every other company in existence is trying to trample Mark Zuckerberg’s beast, everyone dubs their own social networking site as a Facebook-killer but apparently they have all drowned in their own river of defeat. Google has promised us its own contender aptly called Google Plus and so far it has accumulated about twenty million users in its trial phase – or so Google says. The hall called for a Facebook-killer and Google Plus answered. Does it have what it takes to take down the beast or will it be sleeping with the fishes sooner than it expects?
