You've become such a pimp for Google+

... Methinks you are being paid for this *suspicion!* XD

I wish I were being paid! I'm just so curious as to how it could handle 10 people! Don't tell me you wouldn't like to give it a go.

Though, really, if Hangout had Games, it would be, like, the ultimate chat thinger ever.

OMG NEED HANGOUT ISKETCH OMG
That or MarioKart. Just something that will induce mass swearing and insulting.

Hah, first I get roped into group Skype over at JPHIP, now Hangout sessions? Awesome.

But due to early work shift, a weekday Hangout would have to end by 11:00 PM EST. Odds are once the fall semester starts the times available will vastly increase.

No one will be safe from mah pimping >:D.
Also we can totally do the SNSD drinking game for drunken hilarity.

BTW, yes, Skype group chat got really cluttered and meandering, but talking over each other was no more than a face-to-face or phone conversation would have. If we had topics listed beforehand and had an initial roundtable of responses before lapsing into free-for-all discussion and debate it could help organize things.

I'm not thinking of anything formal. I'm just thinking of a casual chat session. My friend's hangout got crazy simply because everyone had gone on a friending/circling craze and so at some point someone wandered in and there had to be a moment of "Who do you know in this room and by how many degrees of separation?"

greywing July 22 2011, 03:04:59 UTC

The nice thing is that anyone can leave at any time they need to. I don't think the person that starts the Hangout even has to remain the room for the Hangout to remain open to everyone else in there. But I haven't tried Hangout with more than two people so I won't know until we try.

We can play iSketch while keeping a Hangout open. It would just be nice if it were incorporated into the Hangout itself.

People can be safe. They can just choose not to open YouTube or open a video over you. XD

This would be way fun.

Be even funner if I got a microphone of some sort.

greywing July 22 2011, 03:09:00 UTC

Oh, iacus.

iacus July 22 2011, 03:11:12 UTC

Then you can learn how much I curse and mutter in real life!

(a lot)

I suppose we'll need some kind of warning to scare away young 'uns.
