exactly how does that work? i got an email yesterday asking if i wanted to comment on someones post but i can't seem to get much further then that.
Click yes and then it should say 'Join Google+'.

Try it now.
 
Just a reminder:

– An important note about Field Trial –
You're a part of a small group of people who are helping to test Google+. When you share something with people who are not yet able to use Google+, they will receive it via email but won't be able to comment or engage with the content like other Google+ users. They'll be able to join Google+ as we let more users in over time.

Did they just post that recently?

Because people have been getting in through this.

They probably blocked email notifications to avoid this happening which sucks.
 
I tried to you use "that trick" to invite people, but they to don't receive the invite-emails at the moment.

I hope they unblock it soon.
 
everytime I got to plus.google.com when I'm not logged in it always says I can login/join. I'm not getting the "overloaded" message anymore. I thought it was now open for everyone...
 
As soon as I went to plus.google.com I got in. I no longer get that message either. Is it just open for everyone now? Will invites work?
 
When you go to plus.google.com, it says that you can sign in, but when I do sign in, it brings me to the Google+ is in limited Field Trial...Keep Me Posted page. Anyone getting the same thing?

Still haven't received an email from last night. *sniff sniff*


Maybe I'm just a bot collecting emails that likes to troll potentional + users and is a little too self aware?


maybe....

Same deal here. Although, two people tried to invite me last night and none of their e-mail invites came through. I'll keep an eye out throughout the day.

Just to get ready for it, are there any mobile apps that allow you to sync up with it for the iPhone? Or is that too much to ask for such a "limited" beta at this point?
 
I assume the invites won't work for the UK yet? I couldn't register my interest, managed to do so by going to the US site though, so looks like it's US only for now?
 
Sorry to cross post, but is anyone else actually able to USE their invite? I got two on Wednesday, and STILL can't use them. Am I alone in this? If anyone has any advice, I'd really appreciate it. I've just been F5ing every few hours...
 
i think google disabled the loophole share/post method.

we were testing it out yesterday and people weren't even receiving the invite emails anymore.
 
Old invites seem to work atm. But can't get out new invites. When they open up invites again, I'll invite as many as I can. But until they've open up, we've to all wait.
 
I am getting people in immediately on other websites. I've just sent 2 invites and they both got in.

PM me emails and I can run some tests with Gaf users. Hopefully you'll get the email invite immediately and get in as well.
 
I sent an invite. They didn't get the email however...

Just opened the plus.google.com page and it has recognised that the invite was sent. Thanks! (Wasn't letting me in before)

Cheers ;)

Sent invite. The email might not come immediately.

Could you try going to plus.google.com and try signing up?

Yep, did 10 mins ago.
That's odd.

Another trick that seems to work is if someone has an email (which should work), they can forward it to the person they want to invite. That person can then click the Learn More About Google+ button. That should work (if invites are open).

This would overcome the emails not arriving issue.
