Google Hangout sticky?

littleclaude · May 2016

Hi

I noticed since the Google Hangout was absorbed into the "Where Did The Stickies Go" thread no one is using it anymore. As it's such a great resource is there any chance admin could sticky this again.

MAIN HANGOUT (event page)
and
OVERFLOW HANGOUT (event page)

Cool thanks,
Neil

Stickies are always a toss-up between having easy access or being overly cluttered. But if enough people want it stickied again, we can do this.

I have been wanting to jump on this more but there never seems to be anyone on. I am Australian though so my peak time is probably at a low point for most.

Maybe update that sticky with links for Slack, #model_design, the hangout group, and anything else that's relevant, along with the link to their respective threads (that are already there).

Excellent post. I have used Google+ for virtual office hours at Providence College. I teach organic chemistry and use a G+ whiteboard app is good for drawing chemical structures (I use a bamboo tablet to draw and share my screen). This is not ideal, however, because the whiteboard app is not very good and I’m wondering if you know of any alternative whiteboard apps (what I really want to do is use my ipad). I just completed a survey of my class and they seemed to like using G+ for office hours, but I have some ideas on how to make it better for the spring. I’d be interested in your input. I just added you on G+.

What's missing?

I just meant having information regarding the different sites as direct links instead of links to the threads and then to the other sites.

Ah OK, that makes sense. Will do!

I'm not sure this needs to be stickied. If anything, it would be great to have as a topic in the Wiki. Maybe under the information section there could be a Google Hangout page with not only our hangout but others as well.

Go for it!

Could add it as a button on the front page

I'll add it to the wishlist. However the more items we add up there, the more difficult the layout becomes. Especially important on mobile.

We might condense some of them, like combining the profile pic with the Account Options, and/or combining Notifications and Inbox.
