My prediction is that they will want to have at least 70% - 80% of the number of users on Facebook before they make a move. I wonder how long it will take before they get that many users?

Raw # of users is one thing vs. time spend in the Stream will prob figure into their calc on when to deploy PPC
Randy Hilarski's comment, August 8, 2013 4:57 PM
I will be the one who says they will never have on page ads like we are accustomed to. The top of the money chain on the internet is information. If Google knows everything about us, their agreements with Ad and information gathering companies will more than keep them going strong for years to come. GPlus is just a layer on top of everything Google.
