Sun (nprofile…h6f2) Pete Zaitcev (nprofile…qmdf) google+ may have "failed" but it was actually usable and did a lot of things correctly while it was around.
their primary fuckup was the #nymwars bullshit and probably also the forced integration with youtube. they should have not forced a real-name policy, and they should have allowed people to sign into youtube with google+ but maintained the distinction between a youtube channel and a google+ account
other than that, feature-wise it was unparalleled to this day
