Any Google+ members out there want to start an invite tree?

I'm kind of interested in seeing what Google+ looks/feels like. I like trying out anything once just to see what it's all about and if it's worthwhile.

In the past people have started invite threads where one person invites interested MF members and then those members come back and give invites to more people. I remember doing it with Google Wave I think or some other invite-only service a while back.

I don't know how many Google lets you invite, but if anyone is willing to share, let me know. I'd be glad to pay it forward to some other members here.

I'm pretty sure invite capacity is unlimited, Google just shuts down all invites from time to time. I've been able to invite a bunch of people so far, except when it's not available.

I started using Google+ too - time to get back into the whole social networking scene. Profile here. Haven't used it much so it's a bit sparse as of now.

I think I'll wait until it becomes available. As of now, I really don't want to be on multiple SN sites...(I'm already on Facebook...YouTube...that's enough).

The nice thing about Google+ is that they are trying to sync all of Google services, so GMail, Buzz, Picasa, YouTube, and other services all get folded in quite nicely..

The best thing about G+ is that it's not Facebook.

Oh and if you add me on Google+ be sure to tell me who you are on here since I don't know everyone's real name :)
