- deathanatos 8y agoWell, TIL that existed. It's not quite what I'm talking about. That link is unique to your user, kind of weirdly, and is some sort of personal meeting room. I'd like to assign names to meetings, not to me; every meeting that I happen to schedule the meeting for shouldn't all have the same name; the name should be descriptive of the meeting itself. That is, a meeting about widget production shouldn't be "suzieqmeet" just b/c Suzie Q. scheduled it; it should be called something like "widget-production". A later meeting about spline reticulation could just be "spline-reticulation"; the URL "meet.vc-company.com/spline-reticulation" is obvious, and trivial to transfer over speech to a coworker. The great thing about Hangout, IIRC, is that it sort of automatically slugifies the meeting subject, so the defaults are pretty close to "magically just works". Trying to convince my entire coworker base to adopt "vanity URLs" is not going to happen, and doesn't really solve the problem.
