Google+ may be new and neat and growing but I don't yet see a graph of people abandoning Facebook for it. I just don't see the masses (mainstream casual social media users) jumping ship from FB yet.

OK, now I'm just confused and a bit scared. I feel like my parents trying to figure out a new remote control

I think Google+'s immediate rapid growth is due to people's "curiosity" and maybe, a kind of herd mentality...

Google started it right, just maintain it and for sure Google plus will be a major player in social media race. Long way to go, G+!

@Daniel; why would the masses need or want to abandon the FB ship (immediately) in this multitasking multisocial universe. And secondly, many might switch to G+ without ending or terminating their account and become 'sleepers' (a term we use in Holland for people with an inactive account for a service or with very low activity) at FB. Every service has sleepers. The question is if FB will report these sleepers in their figures.
What is interesting in the graph above is the occupations of G+ users; mainly techy guys.

i just installed an extension in chrome which made my google plus appear as facebook... this little example shows facebook is still superior and it has become the habit of people... this is the real social network and google plus might not be able to beat it .
