Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter continue to lead, but Google’s bid to reverse its curse has got everyone interested.With 60 per cent of India’s online audience logging on to social networks, according to online audience measurement and analytics platform ViziSense, the introduction of Google’s latest social networking site, Google+, has made Facebook and Orkut users sit up and take notice.With hundreds of Facebook users from India already on Google+, which has allowed select numbers of users from around the globe to test the site and is in a beta testing phase, the initial user reactions seem encouraging.Google+ is the search engine giant’s latest attempt to carve its place into the people-centric territory, where Facebook has a 54 per cent reach among the 100 million internet audience in India. Twitter enjoys a four per cent market share.
