"Google+ is a great product, but you can’t have stars in your eyes about the shape of the new frontier."
Simplified meaning
Google+ was a social media platform that had some good features, but it's important not to get overly excited or blinded by the novelty of new things. For example, when smartphones first came out, many people thought they would solve all our problems. Some people even ignored potential disadvantages like reduced face-to-face interaction or addiction to screens. Similarly, Google+ had its strengths, but we shouldn't ignore its limitations or assume it would be perfect just because it was new and different. In life, when we encounter something new and exciting, it's smart to stay realistic and consider both the positives and negatives. This balanced approach helps us make better decisions and avoid being disappointed.
