Sigh....So in other words, they really ARE trying to be the next Facebook...Well, I guess if I ever did use Google+, I just wouldn't put any kind of sensitive content on it, like...at all. Same with Facebook.
But think about the possibilities! Maybe a streaming company will buy up rights for shows like 16-bit gems from Google and put them on their instant service! Or Microsoft will trademark Clan of the Gray Wolf and you'll have to change the name of the site!
I think part of that is necessity for searches like Google Image or Google Video to display content from sites but yeah, all the stuff about "irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license" just seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Like what if you create a flash game for free, it gets popular so Google adapts it to a smartphone app and sells it? Just seems like a really sleazy deal.
They currently don't have Google+ accounts for "businesses" n' such, but we'll be on it once they do.

You may not want to get on google+ because of that =x
I dont think that is going to fly for long, but who knows.
