Google opened up its Hangouts on Air broadcasting capability to the world, providing a video record to the Web.
Google is rolling out its Hangouts on Air feature to Google+ users around the world. The Hangouts feature on Google+ is a popular way for some people to engage in video chat conversations with multiple friends or users. To launch a Hangout on Air broadcast, users just need to launch a normal Hangout, then select the option to record the broadcast. The company had previously allowed a select number of pre-approved to publishers to stream Hangouts, and the feature has been used by pop stars, TV personalities and etc. Making Hangouts on Air available to everyone is an interesting move for Google in general, as the company has been cautious to enter the live streaming space.
