Hi all,

I'm trying to get an invite into Google+ (http://plus.google.com),
because I want to integrate it into Syyncc ASAP. If anyone knows
anyone influential, or otherwise can help, I'd be obliged.

Thanks!

Emlyn, I don't have any invites but I'll add you to my circle of followers. I'm not yet sure how that works but I think you will get updates on my posts. I'm hoping the interaction will trigger an invite for those I connect with.

Thanks Wallace, much appreciated.

It looks as though you wont want to syyncc the whole "stream", but
rather on a circle by circle basis. It might map well to Facebook
groups, maybe? Certainly to Diaspora aspects. Thoughts?

I read that only Googlers had invitations. The ready will be available "in a few weeks".

I asked for an invitation to a Google + Developers group, and hope to hear from them soon. I mentioned your name and your efforts to connect FB and Buzz when they asked why I wanted to join. I hope you get an invite soon.

The Diaspora connection would be great.

It's a struggle to add any thoughts when you're already thinking about it so clearly. ;)

I agree it would map well to Facebook groups, but I also get the impression that a large portion of Facebook users finds groups too complicated. Some way to map one or more of your circles to "all my facebook friends" might be useful too.

Also, apparently there is a "public" circle, which I assume could be mapped the same way public Buzz posts are now.

Ditto. I'm chomping at the bit to be a part of this. I'll happily share the love once I'm in.

Ok, I'm in! Time to try and grok the thing.

I don't have any invites to give out, unfortunately, but when I do
I'll let people know.

They've just closed them again. But, put your hand up here and I'll
invite you as soon as possible.

Also, I'll try something now for kingtigre; please let me know if this works.

Not working. Just gave me the typical "Need an invitation" message. Thanks for trying though. :) Maybe next time.

I saw something about invites being allowed now. It says users may have to log out and back in to get them.

How many people do we have in this group? It would be cool if we could get the whole syyncc crowd in on this.

Hey all, just a quick question.  How many of you are syynccing with Buzz? Do you prefer posting in Buzz or posting in FB? Just a little social research.

As a user of syyncc, I post in both more or less equally; I post in
whichever one I happen to be looking at at the time.

Hi Emlyn - Could you send me an invite when you can? Would appreciate it a lot. I also appreciate Synncc. Hope you can synchronize Google+. Google said there will be an API soon...

Will do. I'm hanging out for the API too. It looks to me like the API
will be basically identical to the one for Buzz.

I think the API's will be quite comprehensive as they really want (and need) to succeed with this 'experiment' all around the web.

Thanks. Btw, my email is goomarketing [at] gmail.com (not unimportant)

I post almost exclusively on Buzz. (Used to be mostly via Reader shares, but I have avoided those lately due to Syyncc not supporting them well and too many complaints from my Facebook friends when I share stuff and no link appears.)

My Facebook activity was pretty dead before I got Syyncc, now I get quite a few comments there.

Those reader shares, still on my list. G+ will have exactly the same
issues, I predict.

I sent you a post. Click to view it and if you're lucky, it'll ask you to set up an account.

There is a form for developers interested in google+. Might be worth
it for you to write something up https://services.google.com/fb/forms/plusdevelopers/
