    Joining a Hangout

    Google+ notifies you about hangouts in several ways, each of which enables you to easily join the hangout. When someone in one of your circles is hanging out, Google+:

    • Displays a post on your stream. Click the Hang Out button to participate. Figure 12.8 shows a sample post for a hangout.

    Note: Google+ Disables Notifications for Large Groups

    If more than 25 people are invited to a hangout (such as the inclusion of a large circle), Google+ won’t display a notification. Google+ will alert you to the hangout in your stream, however.
