There were two features they kept coming back to: [Communities](https://plus.google.com/+googleplus/posts/HGGrZbWW9gV) which now average 1.2 million new joins per day, and [Collections](https://plus.google.com/+googleplus/posts/7ZpGWeou2sV), which launched just five months ago and is growing even faster. Whether it’s the [Nonfiction Addiction](https://plus.google.com/communities/100656923780841493539?hl=en) Community, where people can be found discussing the best in Crime or Travel storytelling, or the [WatchProject](https://plus.google.com/collection/EX-8V) Collection, where more than 40,000 people are following an antique watch hobbyist, these are the places on Google+ where people around the world are spending their time discovering and sharing things they love. And so we’ve reimagined Google+ to help them do that. Today, we’re starting to introduce a fully redesigned Google+ that puts Communities and Collections front and center. Now focused around interests, the new Google+ is much simpler. And it’s more mobile-friendly—we’ve rebuilt it across web, Android and iOS so that you’ll have a fast and consistent experience whether you are on a big screen or small one. You’ll need to opt-in to this new version of Google+ on the web to see the changes—check out [our Google+ post](https://plus.google.com/+LukeWroblewski/posts/jJvNS3mwxyv) for more on how to give it a try. ![Google+ Animation](https://storage.googleapis.com/gweb-uniblog-publish-prod/original_images/Dragon_Final_Animation.gif), Introducing the new Google+, Google, 01gnmcyj9pej22c6mj676rx4rt.
