I just joined Google+ on Friday.  Here is a link to my profile: https://plus.google.com/115801910890938570573

I pasted the actual link rather than hiding it because I found it unusual.  All of my other social network profiles have cleaner links with my name in it.  I don’t know why Google chose to do it so differently.

I am still figuring out how Google+ works, but is seems less like Facebook and a little more like a combination of LinkedIn and Twitter.  There aren’t really mutual friendships, so much as the ability to follow and categorize people.  So you can follow people who don’t follow you and the other way around.  It is interesting how you can restrict who you share with.
