Since its public launch, Larry Page topped the list of the most-followed users on Google+, until Britney Spears joined. Last month, she shot past Page to snag the number one spot with over 700,000 followers. It’s been just over 3 weeks and she’s just set another milestone for herself on the social networking site, becoming the first person to reach 1 million followers.
The race to 1 million followers on Twitter was a much more publicized affair with Ashton Kutcher and CNN contending for the title, and soon joined by Britney Spears herself. Ashton Kutcher might have been the first one to get to 1 million, but it was only a matter of time before she managed to shoot past him as well.
Now she’s not only the most followed person on Google+, she’s the first one to reach the big million.
So what was that people were saying about Google+ being dead?


















The thing I don't like when celebrity pages is that,when they are managed by a team,the information is always the same,so to follow them in different social services is redundant.At least they should publish original messages from time to time.

LikeI have a lot of respect for TNW but this is just utter rubbish. The whole premise of this piece is that to be relevant and important in social media terms you have to have some big numbers.
This is such a 2009 notion that I'm pinching myself to make sure I didn't just fall asleep and dream a whole bunch of stuff about relevance.
Having said that, learning that Britney Spears has more than one million circles on Google+ has made me happier than ever that I deleted my account a couple of months ago.

LikeShe (actually, her team) is one of the rare celebrities who are using the latest trends in social media -- she has a public profile on Facebook (with 'Subscribe' option), Tumblr, Google+, Instagram etc. I think it is really a smart move, no matter who the celebrity is.

LikeAlthough I don't care about celebrities and neither want them in my TL, Celebrities are a milestone in every social media site. "Normal-everyday" people" knew about twitter after Kutcher's popularity.
