YouTube's Now The Latest Place To Start Your Hangout

hangoutfeatOne of the niftiest features of Google+ is its group videoconferencing app called Hangouts. Not only is the service free, with support for ten simultaneous users " it also attempts to negate the awkwardness that's often associated with coordinating video calls by making the experience more casual and free-flowing (any of your friends can hop into and out of a Hangout at any point, provided you've shared it with them).One of the app's other neat features is its ability to play a YouTube video for all of your friends at the same time (and, of course, you can immediately talk about the video). This evening, YouTube's rolled out a new option that makes it easier to jump into one of these video-sharing sessions: you can now initiate a Hangout directly from a YouTube video's 'Watch' page (you'll find the option under the 'Share' menu).
