A top official of the company said that, Google+ is not a social network website and it is not directly competes with Facebook.
"It is a platform which allows us to bring social elements into all the services and products that we offer. So you have seen YouTube come into Google+; you've seen Google+ with 'direct connect' go into our search business", the Telegraph quoted Google's Chief Business Officer Nikesh Arora, as saying.
"We are trying to make sure we use social signals across all of our products... It's not just about getting people together on one site and calling it a social network," he added. However, " there are some features on Google+ which compete with some features on Facebook," he added.
