but im not shure i have sent invites to non-gmail adresses but i dont know if they got them or if they did if tehy were using google apps for there domain ?
It is never too late to get invites - well except when they open the doors to everyone :) so if you still want one shout up here - several people can now invite from here and will hasten to oblige.
Do I need a G-Mail account to join Google+?
You don't need a Gmail account to join the project though having a Google account in advance might help you getting started a bit quicker. You can link any email to the Google account as well.
Google+ has had the invitations closed because of the “Insane Demand” that it was getting. Turns out though, that even though the demand is super high, and the invitations have been closed… there is still a simple way to get people into Google+.It involves simply typing a status update on your profile. Underneath that, you’ll have the option to share that status update with certain circles or people around you. You can also, optionally, share this with an email address, and have the status update sent to that email.
The issue is actually getting into the project. Currently, those with invites get a screen that says "please try again soon". The paragraph above was supposed to be a workaround for the "have an invite, can't get in" issue.
Windborn - that is the ONLY method available to me - and most others - of inviting people. If you received an email already your invite is active - you just need to keep an eye on that page and you will get in.
By simply going to someone's profile and clicking on the red button in the middle of the page that says "Join," lol. I consider it a trick because it seems so hard to get in otherwise. :P
I haven't got my invite yet, although according to the post time here, it's been at least 32 hours since it was sent. Should I have received something from the Google+ team, or are the invites just being held up since demand is high? All I can find in my spam folder is info from wall street insiders and the leading brands of viagra.
Thanks for sharing your invites with us, by the way!
What button, Cerulean? I've been to people's profiles but never saw the button. The invite I got has a broken link and keeps telling me "page not found" is that what you get when it's too busy?
Cerulean - do you mean when you go to a profile page then click the link to the persons profile section - like their image - then it takes you to a page that says "sign in"? If so the sign in page was open for you at that time - other wise it was back to the over subscribed pages
personally it would have made more sense for invitees to be directed to a waiting page and then they get in from their. This nonsense of having the same page for invited and not invited just aggrivates people and is not clear what people need to do
Accy & Mudge.. Finally in!! :) Haven't got any circles set up yet.. Will soon and will be back to help anyone that needs an invite! Hope everyone is posting their "+" addresses here so I can find you and add you to my Glitch circle.. Cause you know that'll be the first one I make :DD
WB :-) I'm in after using your plus.google.com. I was kindly sent and invite yesterday, but kept getting all the stuff others were getting, but just using your link, plus possibly the initial invite, I'm in! Just like that;)
