Holy cow Google+ needs apps. I know Windows Phone isn't a huge market, but their mobile site is completely broken and non-functional (and Google has other WP7 apps released). It looks like it was designed for WAP browsers. Night and day doesn't begin to describe how different the Android app is from the mobile website.

I'd just create a G+ app myself, but... well that's what this story is about, isn't it? You can't.

I have written quite a bit about the fundamental issues with Google+. One of the major issues is the existing app (they broke it on iPhone 3G with an update, it was broken for 3 weeks). Another is the massive UI flaws, both browser, mobile and app based.

It is clear that they have taken the Agile methodology of "Only do the work that is absolutely required" to a completely new meaning. (Forgive me if I misquoted someone there).
