After a few months in invite-only beta.

Google has announced today that their social network Google+ is now available to all, and no longer in invite-only beta.



Additionally, the popular "Hangouts" feature is now available on mobile devices.

Hangouts for the web has also been updated with the ability to screen-share and the ability to name your Hangouts.

Furthermore, Hangouts on Air is now a possibility, allowing users to make public broadcasts that others can tune in to.

The first broadcaster will Black Eyed Pea's Will.i.am.

Finally, there is also improved SMS support, better +mentions and +1'ing comments and one of the big things is that Huddle has now been renamed as Messenger, says TechRadar.
