But! While the company didn't break out any specific numbers on Android usage, they did confirm that Google+ has over 40 million users. "Users," here, being loosely defined, since Google+ is a relative ghost town of privately shared links about how Google+ is a ghost town. And given how heavily Google+ was promoted in the early days—across however many millions and millions of Gmail accounts—is it wrong to be a little surprised that there aren't even more people who signed up?
Google will be hosting a call to discuss earnings (a not at all shabby $9.72 billion revenue, $2.73 billion net income) at 4:30EST, which will hopefully include some goodies on Android activations, Ice Cream Sandwich, and the Motorola acquisition.

It is a very small number of actual people that have many, MANY, multiple accounts.
Thanks so much for keeping us updated on this, those are quite some impressive earnings from Google definitely. They also definitely aren't getting 40 million plus users, no way.
Well, I don't think that's too bad. The service opened just a few months ago, and 40 million registered users is pretty amazing. I'm thinking that google will turn this into another goldmine, just like it does with anything else.
Ahaha they're lying out their ass. Google+ tanked because it took them too long to go public. Just like Google Wave.
I myself am a regular user of Google+, but I can verify what you are saying. There really isn't any incentive for people to really join in until Facebook stops being so great to people. I really enjoy G+, but it's hardly more than a stopping point on the way to Facebook at the moment.
I really liked the service, but I couldn't find many of my friends on there.
I have it, and used to do video hangouts alot. But now, thinks slowed down.
