Google+ had circles as well. I found it very hard to properly segment people properly. There are rarely such hard boundaries on relationships. If I'm snowboarding or barbecuing, it's very seldom I only wanna share that with just friends, just family, or just co-workers. It will usually be much more interest-based.

Trying to create interested-based circles was also hard, as the cardinality explodes quite fast (and you're back to square one with not knowing who you share what with).

I guess this is where Snapchat is onto something with giving a very rapid selection of who you want to share with. I usually have a small group of people in mind when I want to share something.

Defining that group, fast, almost on a per share level is the key challenge.

I think the "circles"-approach could be a way, but I think it must be much more dynamic and alive than how Google+ solved it. It must continuously evolve.

Thanks, I get what you're saying here. Often times I find myself adding people to two circles or more. Although there is the option to create new circles I generally recommend keeping close to the existing circles that are created with each account.

On that point we also offer a quick/simple mechanism for sharing to specific contacts. So you're able to share to circles and/or specific contacts.

If you try the app, I would be keen to hear your feedback. Shoot me an email if that is the case.

Couldn't you make circles of circles in google plus? I remember something like that, I had circles and then grouped them based on interest.
