Looking forward to seeing this launch but it feels like a missed opportunity to not collect an email for launch notification. Also loving the animation and design of the page.
Looking pretty cool. I wonder if this would work well as a shared moodboard for design teams? Might try it out and see if it fits. I do get annoyed with the way the header waits a moment and then pulls/pushes content as it collapses and expands on scroll

If anyone here is a product manager or interested in it, if you want to test this out I created a space called "Product Managers in Space" https://goo.gl/spaces/rbetyAC9tD...

Two things am going to do with my space. Build a fan base on my material design collection and start a beta team group for my coming products all on spaces. loving it
I'm just looking for a light-weight group communication tool so I tried this out. However, with the existing feature set, I'm having a hard time seeing a match, here is a list of issues I see:
- Communication centered around one big card stream which are presumably topics or stimulus to kick off the convo. (This takes overwhelmingly amount of vertical space and the right side of the card will also have too much negative space)
- Once you enter a topic, it's a chatting interface, with no @ mentions function or here or everyone...
- The gigantic header again takes way too much space to follow google's design guideline maybe? For no other good reasons.
Frankly, I don't think this is better than G+ Community. The information density of the card design on G+ is also much better. Is the fresh hotness makes it appealing? Or maybe I'm just too harsh and this will keep evolving.

The utility aspect of Google+ IMO was great. The social aspect of Google+ C-.
