Google introduced Google+ social network for what it called 'real-life sharing.' The UI might look cooler (it does) but this won’t necessarily make it more attractive for social interaction. Drag-and-drop is grossly overrated as a UI interaction metaphor – many regular users have never used drag&drop. What is good about Facebook is that it “just works” without any setup effort. You see a continuous stream of thoughts from your friends, with no interactions from you, other than an occasional “confirm friend” or “add friend”. Plus, non-shy people can also post a link/text once in a while, whenever they feel like it. I don’t see that in Google+
