hangouts are actually really good and a lot better than: Skype fuse that cisco garbage we tried that other one I can't remember but was awful tip: to make a hangout permanent, make an event - "daily standup" for instance - and attach a hangout to it. viola, that URL is now bookmarkable and will always exist.

and if you click through things you can actually see what features were intended to be there when the ui was first conceived and which ones were bolted on later when some poor fucker was asked to drop what he was doing and add a neat gizmo it's a seriously unenviable job that's hard to do well even if you are allowed to infringe on the patent for a button that does a thing when you click it

https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_ then just send the link to the room you're in to whoever, or use the in hangout invite. done. we're also close to removing the plugin requirement. hey rotor did you ever look in to http://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/business/solutions/for-meetings.html ? it integrates really well if your business already uses google calendar.
