New Directory Makes It Easy To Find Public Google+ Hangouts


 


Now there’s an easy answer to the question: “Where is everybody hanging out on Google+?”

A website called gphangouts.com aggregates all the public hangouts on the social network. It includes “recent” and search functions too.
If you’re interested in creating a public hangout, you can also create one using the site. It’s unclear if Google or a third party runs the site. Reps from Google could not be reached for comment. Update: A Google rep says the site was not created by Google.

Since Google+ is less than a month old, users are still trying to figure out how to use Hangouts, which let you hold multi-person video chats. There have been several experiments with Hangouts. Ford, for instance, hosted a Hangout on July 7 and Dell CEO Michael Dell has also used Google+ more than a dozen times since he joined. Dell also mused on his Google+ Page that he’d like to use Hangouts for customer service. Ordinary users also use Hangouts as well, of course, as do some journalists.
