I really like how you can comment on threads from the notification bar. Its so efficient. Instead of the notification directing you to back to the post, you can read the whole thing from the notification bar and even comment back on there.
yup its open, i invited like 10 people and its still there!

Man missed the Hangout with Michael Dell by a few seconds. Still have to try that feature out. Wonder what they talk about in those. He seems to do one every day.

Lol. Even Larry Page can't Hangout with Michael Dell cause it got filled so fast.

I think invites are gone for the day. I don't see it on mine either. You could try the post share trick though. It might work. It sucks we can't share circles yet. Maybe in the future it'll come. Would be nice for someone to create one then we just add that circle kinds like how Lists work on Twitter.

Yeah its a privacy reason. If you knew which Circle you fell under, then that defeats the whole purpose of creating Circles. For all I know, some of you placed me under annoying Android Guy on Acurazine Circle. lol.

PM or write down your e-mail. Invites are down right now but we can try the post share trick that seems to work every now and then.

Invites come and go and right now they're not there. Might be back up again tomorrow though. You'll see an invite button on the bottom right. For now, you can try the Post share trick to invite which is what people are doing when the invites are not there. They sometimes work but its not a gurantee. Here's a quick tutorial on how to do it and increase your chances of getting them in:

Add the person you want to add into your GMail contacts.
Add that person into a circle of your choice (preferably Friend or Family, you could always move them later on).
Create a post on your stream and make it limited to whoever you want.
Share that post to the person's email address you're trying to add.
They'll receive an e-mail and its just luck from that point.

Also, it seems the more people that share post invite, the higher your chances of getting in.

Yeah the ones I posted are pretty straight to the point. I learn new stuff each day with this thing. Then again, its still changing every day as nothing is set in stone yet. Also, don't forget to leave feedback. You can help direct where they're heading with this thing.

Sent an invite but not sure if it'll go through since I invited quite a few people today. Maybe the others can send an invite as well to increase your chances.

NM. Looks like it went through. lol.

Right now its only for Android:

https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result


iOS was submitted a few days ago but you know how Apple is with their approval process.


XDA and Droid Forums have a Dark variant found here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1154325

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/tea...-inverted.html

You must uninstall the market version if you try the XDA or Droid Forums version.
