They say they want to sue, and have like patents a couple of youtube videos or something. Compare and decide:

Plaintiff: Jumpino

Defendant: Google+

What say you the high court of TWW?

Google+ wins, flawless victory, without even looking at the videos

Jumpino sounds like something I would dip pita chips in

7/5/2011 9:55:23 AM

Jumpino is totally the next Facebook killer.

7/5/2011 9:56:28 AM

i rule in favor of the plaintiff based on my finding that the google video has a circle called "epic bros"

7/5/2011 9:57:54 AM

my guess is that Google has 100 lawyers/employee of Jumpino.

Their "security officer" hasn't even graduated from college yet Sounds rock solid.

7/5/2011 10:00:32 AM

it doesn't look like jumpino has anything private. you have to join into more public circles (but maybe that was just my 5 second tour of jumpino and looking at their circle system.

in the end one of them will change the name of it and go on with their life

7/5/2011 10:07:31 AM

^ They have private circles too. I think it's kind of a public/private mix.

And I don't think Google+ will be changing anything. I think Google is sufficiently unconcerned at this point.

7/5/2011 10:24:52 AM

gotcha. i figured you might be able to make them private, but i didn't wanna put any effort into a website that will probably be gone in a few weeks

7/5/2011 10:29:45 AM

it's already been around for over a year I think. But it never had enough users to matter worth squat, and we have every reason to think it will stay that way. It's noteworthy only for having the "feel" of Google+ before it rolled out.

7/5/2011 11:19:16 AM

I don't understand these upstarts trying to overtake facebook. Why not just write a plugin for facebook and pump ads into it? And if the idea is good enough facebook would come along and buy it up. Then you'd have income and user base to whine to the courts about google stealing your idea.

7/5/2011 1:00:33 PM

^ because that would give facebook more power and revenue? I mean, Jumpino was trying to go after facebook when it started. It was only after Google did G+ that they saw an unintended opportunity of complaining about Google instead.

Because no one has ever thought of the concept of social circles before

7/18/2011 1:54:31 PM

Jumpino is probably just hoping that Google will settle and give them a bunch of money.

7/18/2011 2:28:02 PM

welp, now they're both irrelevant
