I know plenty of you have taken advantage of joining the Hacker News Circle on G+. If you aren't familiar, you can check out the following:

I've noticed that there are a ton of people who've added me that are not on the shared circle. Being a G+ noob, I spent an hour or more manually adding each person to a circle from the notifications page. Here's a much quicker solution if you've got a backlog of people to add to your Hacker News circle:

    * Step one is to add each part (1-3) of the
      original Hacker News shared circle
    * Go to https://plus.google.com/circles
    * Click on the tab "People who've added you"
    * Change "sort by" to "Not yet in circles"
    * Drag around the entirety of people not added
    * Drop into your Hacker News circle

Note that you max out at adding 1000 people a day. You can span a few days to get everyone added.

Oh yeah, you can add me too :)
