Social network beta that college kids perceive as hip and underground because of an air of exclusivity they impose on it in order to be hip and underground themselves. In actuality, Google+ is stale as of now and anyone can get an invite to the beta. It is the dull whiteness of its unpolished pages, its untried newness, and its inferiority to Facebook that summon and unite these easily aroused college students who would readily create a facade and live by it so long as it means they can root for some uprising small company piece of shit underdog self-projection in order to "make a difference," proving that they are individual snowflakes while forgetting that all snowflakes melt and that they are not yet true adults. Ironically, google is a public, mainstream corporation that should, according to collegekidphilosophy, be spat on for branching out, which is obviously a corrupt practice since it increases the income of the company -- Heavens forbid anyone makes a profit except for college kids who think they can graduate and make 80k out of college, overcoming debt with their fancy GPAs. The fact that when college students go to google.com they are forced to create a page on this social network, and, furthermore, that their pages are connected to google.com, eludes them as an instrument of deceit and oppression because they are all too busy smoking the Marijuana, listening to the dumbstep, discovering the Gräfenberg Spot, and making spreadsheets on Microsoft excel.
Used in a sentence: When Google+ is out of beta and is actually better than Facebook, which has to rely on third party Skype for its shitty video chat, the college kids will complain that it is too mainstream because it will actually be useful.
In conversation:
Ignorant college kid 1: I joined Google+ and deactivated my Facebook account, stick it to the Man! Facebook has no search engine!
Ignorant college kid 2: Zuckerberg is a sellout, he needs to stop adding new features to facebook. I hate public corporations with over 20,000 employees.

A social network that was once heavily criticized by everyone back in late 2013 due to the YouTube-G+ integration. But now looking back, the change wasn't really that bad for me. I came to like using the G+ app to manage my YouTube comment inbox.
In fact, from a sole usability standpoint, the G+ era of YT made it far more easier to manage and respond to replies than YouTube's current notification system. Not only that, but G+ allowed you to mute individual YT comment threads, which is something you can't do anymore; it's either mute all comment thread notifs or nothing. But perhaps one of the biggest perks of the YT-G+ integration was the ability to DISABLE replies on your YT comment and also DELETE replies. Yes that's right, as the OP of a comment thread you actually had the power to delete replies. While this could be abused, usually it wasn't and was very useful for ridding hateful, off-topic or spam replies.
But then in late-2017, following YT's redesign, you could no longer use G+ to manage youtube comment threads and thus all those perks were gone. A new notif system was implemented and it sucked so bad. Initially you couldn't even reply to someone within the notification pop-out (you can now tho).
And finally in April 2019, Google+ itself shut down. While I barely used the app for what it was, I do miss those times when I received YT notifs through G+, particularly during 2014/2015.
As the saying goes: you don't recognize what was precious to you until it is gone.
