YouTube, Google+ Let Users Have Video-watching Party

20.08.2011

Imagine sharing a video of one of your kids performing in a school play with your parents who live in another state and watching their reactions via web cam. Or, see your skateboarding teenager showing off video of the latest trick he mastered to young cohorts across town and getting to hear and see their appraisals without having to wait for comments to post on Facebook.

Considering nearly everybody uses YouTube to some degree, the new share option just might propel more people to accept some of those and get on Google+.

What's your take? Can you see yourself watching YouTube videos collaboratively with others in a Hangout?
