Google+ and the new look of Google Calendar

So I got invited to Google+ today. Obviously, it's a little slow without a bunch of users, but from what I can see so far, there's definite potential. The "Hangout" feature is especially interesting to me, as my family has been trying to find a decent group video chat option for awhile now.

Also, Google Calendar has a new look. I read somewhere that it was rolling out to users a little bit at a time, but you can always upgrade manually with the link in the top right corner of the page. I like the look Google is going for with + and Calendar. Clean, as always, but not quite as bleak as it's been in the past.
