Invite people in google plus who are already in your circle

I love google plus so far. I don’t use facebook as much as I wanted to because I don’t like the idea of sharing photos indifferently to both true friends, and well…, friends. The idea of “circle” in google plus is ingenious. And yet, it is so obvious that I really don’t know why until now someone thinks of that.

Anyhow, about the title problem, I didn’t pay attention that I should always invite my friends after putting like 100 or so contacts into different circles. If you are just like me that forgetting to click the “Invite so and so to google +” button at the lower left bottom before closing the page, how should you invite the names again? Send invite one by one by typing their emails? No way!

Okay. It probably is not the best way. But I couldn’t find a function to do it (function like “send invite to anyone without plus account in the selected circle”). Anyway, what I suggest below is reasonably easy to do (only several steps).

  1. Right click the circle where you forgot to invite people, select “View circle in tab”.
  2. Click the people you want to invite (or simple use the “select all” function from “more actions” in the upper right tabs).
  3. Drag the selected people to “drop here to create a new circle”
  4. Create a tmp circle. Now, you have the option to invite the ones who don’t have google plus account again. Of course, you probably want to delete the tmp circle afterward.
