If I start a Google+ Hang out, is there anyway to send my friends a link directly to that Hangout post? I couldn't find any options.

So I have to send people a link to my profile, and let them click on the join hangout button. I prefer not to do that since the hangout post may be buried by my other updates.

I guess this is somehow related to my question. I started a hangout on my phone, but I'm unable to figure out how to access it from a desktop browser: webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/24032/… – neu242 Apr 26 '12 at 7:43

enter image description here

When you create a hangout, just copy the url at the top of the pop-up window that opens up. Send it to anyone you want. They need to sign in with a gmail account (that is associated with a Google+ profile) and they will be added to the hangout.

While you're in the hangout, you can click "Invite" and put individual names in the field. They'll then receive a notification with a link.

This works for people who are already in my circle. However if I start a public hangout, I'd like to be able to post a URL somewhere else(e.g. Twitter, Facebook etc). – Jin Jul 29 '11 at 20:56
