Google Plus gaining ground in social networking

Google's latest offering 'GooglePlus' is steadily gaining ground in the social networking space, so far dominated by Facebook, with the internet giant's social network attracting about 20 million visitors in the initial three weeks and nearly half of these visitors hailing from US and India.

According to estimates by research firm ComScore, Google Plus had 19.93 million unique visitors between June 29 and July 19 period.

The top two countries in this estimate are the US and India. Of the 19.93 million visitors, 5.31 million were from the US and 2.85 million from India.

Another 0.87 million users came from the UK, 0.71 million from Germany and 0.50 million from France.

“I have never seen anything grow this quickly,” vice president of industry analysis at ComScore Andrew Lipsman said.

Google Plus, launched on June 28, is Google's answer to rival Facebook.
