While I do agree with his assessment of G+'s circles invoking the paradox of choice, I find the subsequent hypothetical situation and anecdotal usage scenario all too easy to poke holes in. And the implication in the final paragraph is that he, and he alone, understands why Facebook has been so successful, which is irritatingly self-assured.<p>In short, really? You're basing estimations of G+'s success on your dating experiences?
