I hardly ever log into my google+. Call me a child, but i much prefer facebook. I mean... if all of my facebook friends & communities migrated over to google+ so would i. But right now it's the difference between hanging out in a ghost town or New Orleans.
Facebook gets a bad wrap.. .but i think people underestimate it's usefulness when it comes to things like these communities & planning things. All of my running events, cosplay things, social life, parties, etc, are planned with my friends easily through facebook in a way i can keep up with. Everything from "hey let's go eat tonight who wants to come" to getting rooms together for DragonCon. Facebook is just easier, and more convenient & fun because my friends are ACTUALLY THERE and participate. But that being said, when i DO check in on my google+ (whicih is maybe twice a year) i'd stop in. It would be pretty much the only place i know to go there.
