Suggested Circles in Google Plus

This is something that shows how well thought out Google+ is: Suggested Circles

In Circles click to make a new circle and start typing to see suggested names for your circle.



This feature is really cool, both for the user and for Google.

User:

• Help with naming
• Encourages "logical" structure
• Encourages contact sorting / circle building which leads to a better understanding of the "Circles" concept
• More logical ways of segmenting (looking at) your stream 

For Google:

• Provides data on how people think about their social circles
• Provides a way (in the future?) to be able to rank circles
• Will provide signals which can be used to tune social search

A few days in and although I have a few niggles, which I'll write about when I get the time, plus is still looking pretty solid.
