Is there any way by which we can have a hangout session within our webapp, say in an iframe ?
I was about to experiment with hangout api, but going by existing apps on hangout, it seems they can only be viewed and used from within Google+.

Is there a work around where I can make the user feel that hangout is a part of my app rather than my app being part of the hangout ?

    There’s no way to embed a hangout into your web application, but you can use the hangout button to launch a hangout app. This allows you to integrate features and data from your web application into a hangout.

    The hangout button is made up of an image and a hangout launching link. It comes in a few sizes. Here’s the code for the smallest size (75×19 px)

    <a href="https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_?gid=APP_ID" style="text-decoration:none;">
  <img src="https://ssl.gstatic.com/s2/oz/images/stars/hangout/1/gplus-hangout-15x79-normal.png"
    alt="Start a Hangout"
    style="border:0;width:79px;height:15px;"/>
</a>

    In this snippet you must substitute APP_ID with your application’s ID from the API console. When you are viewing your project you’ll find the application ID at the end of the URL.
