One thing I find useful is I can launch in roll20, make changes etc, then launch in hangout & the changes are there. Probably not helpful unless you play in hangout but... :-) Edit: and as Terratani says, I leave my players on a landing page (at the moment the previous encounter, though as we finished in the middle of combat last week, I think I'll probably change that) as they come in, then move them to wherever I've got planned when they all get there.
