Facebook Vs Google +, which will survive?

Few years back, Google was undisputed leader of online world with maximum numbers of page views and audience. However, in last two years Facebook has almost shocked Google and become one of most visited and viewed website which has more audience then all services of Google put together. Moreover, popularity of Facebook is increasing day by day and it has reached every household and neighborhood. From a teenager to elder, all can be found on facebook. Facebook first failed Google’s social networking service Orkut and now it is threatening its popular services like Youtube, picasa etc.

To tackle increasing competition from Faebook, Google is coming up with Google+, a new innovative social network. In Google plus, Google is providing services like video chats called hangouts, Circles of friends for more privacy, photo sharing and sparks to read and share news etc. With Google Plus, Google is trying to attack on weak privacy features of facebook. Google has created hype about its product Google+ by making it an invitation only to join it; therefore, any person needs an invitation from present user of Google plus to join it.

Google plus is main hope of Google to remain market leader on internet because if Google+ failed in defeating Facebook then it will only end up making facebook more strong. Google plus scores in terms of video chatting and privacy; however, facebook is also likely to come up with new features soon to decrease this advantage of Google+. The main reason behind success of facebook is its simplicity. Privacy alone is slightly over hyped concept because large numbers of people join social networking sites to make new friends because no one has time in real life to do so.

At first look, it looks that it will be hard for Google plus to beat facebook because Google+ looks to be slightly complex as compared to facebook; therefore, it may not get wide acceptance among ordinary public.
