Location + calendar

[Dan1113]

If I am just being daft, please let me know...

First of all, when I click to add a location to my update, I am surprised that it just gives me the address it thinks I am at, and nothing else. Google Latitude does this but then lets you label a place as Home for example, or select a business nearby to check in to. Why would they not use this exact same technology that they already have in Google+? Seems like a big flaw.

The same goes for the Google Calendar -- it already allows you to create events with descriptions etc, and then invite people who can say yes or no to it. Why this hasn't been incorporated into g+ I don't know!

It's in BETA, G+ not a done deal, if you've noticed, they've been making small changes daily. My suggestion...make a suggestion by clicking the send feedback button.

Indeed, I've been abusing the feedback function, haha!

The location thing works well from your phone at least.

This is a really good suggestion. I never invite people to events in my google calendar, but if it was integrated with plus and i could add the circles i wanted that would be very easy. Hopefully they add it soon.
