Reminds me of when I was briefly popular because I had Gmail invites.

I wonder how long before the Winklevoss twins start suing Google.

there's supposedly a loophole - if you know someone who is already in they can make a post and send it to you and that will include some sort of invite access allowing you to sign up.

Ghoulish Delight · 07-01-2011, 06:13 PM

Hmm, if only we knew someone......

I just tried that and couldn't send anything to Greg.

For the most savvy Google+ users, however, there was another way to let their friends join: rather than send an invite the official way, all a Google+ user had to do was share a post — message, link, photo, anything — with a non-Google+ user by entering in their email address. When the recipient got the email notification that a post had been shared with them, a link at the bottom took them to a signup page for Google+. And voila, they were in.

I read something yesterday that the loophole was closed - then reopened. Reports today say it's working for some people and not others. The report yesterday indicated he had 350 I could potentially invite.

I have it, but because it's attached to my personal account, and Google decided that business accounts/email addresses through Google, even if @companyname.com, will now act like universal Google IDs, I have to completely log off my work email to get anywhere near my own account in order to use Google+. Needless to say, haven't been on it since I accepted the invite and signed up.
