Google+ has grown to 62 million profiles, adds 625 thousand per day
Despite numerous negative forecasts, following the results of 2011, the launch of the social network Google+ can probably be considered successful. The project did not fail, like Google’s previous social initiatives, it is successfully integrated with other services, and the future of the social network looks very promising. The interim results on Google+ are important to sum up right now, at the end of the year, because, as we remember, the success rate of this project depends on the coefficient of annual bonuses of all Google employees for 2011, which will be from 0.75 to 1.25.
According to the latest estimate of the frequency of names on Google+ from Paul Allen (see methodology ), the Google+ audience has exceeded 62 million profiles, and in recent days the number of registrations is 625 thousand per day.
According to Allen’s forecast, by the end of 2012, the Google+ audience will grow to 400 million profiles, which can already be compared to Facebook. Recall that Facebook has 700 million active users (daily audience). The number of active Google+ users is unknown, and this is the most interesting question.
Paul Allen assesses the Google+ audience almost since its launch and adjusts the model according to the official Google+ figures provided by Google.

Here are his past assessments, which make it possible to assess the dynamics of the growth of the audience, as well as a forecast for the near future.
July 13 - 10 million
August 1 - 20.5 million
September 1 - 24.7 million
October 1 - 38 million (Larry Page announced "more than 40 million" on October 13)
November 1 - 43 million
December 1 - 50 million
December 27 - 62 million
January 1 - 65.8 million (forecast)
February 1 - 85.2 million (forecast)
There are grounds for maintaining growth rates, because 24.01% of the current audience joined (will join) the social network only in the last month, December. Growth rates should be maintained at the expense of Android users and integration of new services on Google+. In addition, the network effect begins to act on such volumes when the existing audience draws its friends into it.
Apparently, you can congratulate Google employees in advance with the maximum annual bonus rate.
