As long as something is done so that all of those that found out they couldn't participate last time (myself included) can participate the next time, I don't care how it's done.
Last time, it seemed to have no problem with me participating in the Hangout until the day of the Hangout. When I tried to go to it I got a message saying "your phone does not support Google+ Hangouts". Maybe I got an update, I have no idea, but it was really annoying and depressing at the same time. If it was like that for me, I can guess that it was like that for others as well, and I would prefer it if this next time it all worked out more smoothly for everyone.
Did a little more research before responding and as I understand it the only thing that G+ Events with "Party Mode" allows is anyone that is invited can upload pictures to the event page. Nothing that much helps phone users.
We are testing the stream embed and live chat now and there are a few bugs to work out. But it should be ready for the next time we decide to try a public meeting.
Thanks for the extra research done on Google+ Events. Guess it wasn't such a good idea after all. I wasn't sure but that's another big disappointment in Google. Sorry my suggestion was so off.
But, with you on the ball, as usual, we may all be able to participate in the next public meeting. I can't wait.
