The Circles feature is my favorite thing about Google+. I also heard the other day that many people in the US think it's "irresponsible" to be friends with their boss on Facebook — and while that might be a bit of a harsh term, I prefer having a good delineation between personal and work life.

Although I've spent some time in Europe, it wasn't for work, so I find your statement about the differences between America and the UK regarding divides between personal and private to be interesting. I know some people who are friends with their bosses and co-workers on social media platforms, but for the most part they tend to keep the two spheres separate.

Have you set up your Google+ account yet? What do you think so far?
