While not every product should fit every person, G+ is a social networking platform. As such, it should be accommodate a fairly broad user base.

This article and some others I've read all hint a larger issue, that if we're not celeb watchers, hangout addicts, et al, then we should be. We all want to be like the cool kids, right? Well, I don't really want to follow Felicia Day. I don't want to hang out on G+. I don't want to chat on G+. I just want to see what my friends and a few others are posting, and post a few things myself for their consumption. This would work a lot better without the persistent, distracting and annoying nagging for me to become the median user.
