The problem is Google is at a bit of a disadvantage vs Facebook. Facebook taught us exclusivity is a good thing but by expanding to entire schools at a time they were able to guarantee new users had other in-network friends with Facebook available to them. With + users are relying on people they know to be available to keep the product interesting... A bunch of random people trickling in doesn't necessarily translate to a positive user experience.
