    Just send me a PM with your email address and I'll get you invited. This goes for anyone else, too.

    For me I received an email saying I had a message. When I viewed the message it let me join.

    Send me a PM with your gmail address and I'll try and get an invite out to you.
    Decide what to be and go be it.

    I had someone get me in last night by using the round about invite method:

    1. Add gmail user to circle.
    2. Post message to circle.
    3. Have circle member goto plus.google.com, sign in, click on the +You in the upper left hand corner, and sign up.

    After that I had full access.

    If anyone wants me to send them an "invite" let me know and I will give it a shot. Just PM me your gmail account.

    I've invited many people by sharing something with them (in my case just a message that says Google+ invite round x)

    It can take a day, but eventually you get an email saying so and so has shared something with you. You click on view and it allows you to sign up. PM me your email and I'll try to send you one too. Once of them will go through (Robert is probably just doing it wrong :p )

    I got in this way and its how I've been generating "invites." I've seen a few other tricks, but I've seen this way work already. As you said, it just takes time.

    They opened up invites again for a "brief period":
    Act Fast: Google+ Invites Open for 'Brief Period' - Yahoo! News

    From that article:
    But don't think this means you can just invite everyone in your email contacts list. "We continue to throttle invites, so please don't mass invite folks as it won't work," Besbris wrote. "If you invite a handful of your most important friends and family you're much more likely to get these folks into our system."

    Seems, also based on some posts in this thread, it's a matter of "keep trying", till you happen to try at a moment they just increased the cap.

    Really, I'm under the impression that invites don't work like they did in Wave or Gmail. Essentially, you can add anyone to your groups and they receive an email inviting them to see the content and asking them to join GPlus. Or at least that's what happened to me and how I've been inviting people.

    Shoot me a PM and I'll add you to the group. So far, I've had 3 people get in so this method seems to be working (granted it's at Google's discretion).
