http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zrFTAqo_is&feature=player_embeddedJust when we thought we’d seen the last of the ever-popular The Social Network parodies, someone went and skewered Google+ through that cinematic lens.
Early adopters, rabid invite seekers, Facebook deserters and the overwhelmingly male population of Google’s social network — this parody takes them all on.
Perhaps the frame of reference for the satire is a little stale (and the production quality isn’t all that swank), but anyone who has been following the rollout of Google+ should be able to squeeze a chuckle or two out of the above. Unless you don’t currently have an invite. In which case, sorry to rub it in.
Have a look at more parodies below (contains a bit of NSFW language):

3. Google- Anti-Social Network PreviewDid you think you were all cutting-edge with your Google+ invite? Well, Google Minus is the new Plus.
