I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring

I'd be somewhat worried about side impacts in that. Or it blowing away in the wind. Or being stolen by kids.
I am really interested in the leaning electric ones. They feel like enclosed motorcycles instead of a small car.
I'd love to see the tests for it though, because more cool cars are better. However, the other issue I see is that people don't like being front to back. It makes it rather awkward for talking. Would you use a headset like they do in fighter jets?
