Up until now, during a Hangout, users could watch a video and have everyone else in that particular Hangout view the video with them. As of today, users on the Youtube site can start a hangout around any particular video.
While at any video on Youtube.com, you simply have to click on the “Share” button beneath the video. As usual, the video link, as well as various other ways to share it online will pop up. What’s new though, is the “Watch with your friends. Start a Google+ Hangout” link to the right. All you have to do is click that and it launches a Hangout window where the video of your choice is playing within that Hangout. This is a great way to shorten the process of watching videos with friends at the same time within a Hangout.
