Google + Hangouts update and new features

Written on 12 Jan 2012 by Vincent Abry

Google just rolled out two updates on Google + Hangouts (=video-chat).

First, a new updated application for iOS (iphone/ipad/ipod touch) is now available on iTunes.

Second update : screensharing and bigger video player.

“- Screensharing: share what’s on your computer screen with everyone in the hangout. This is the first of many extras we’re graduating to Hangouts proper.
- Bigger video: we’ve put more emphasis on the live video itself by optimizing white space and other screen elements.”

Here is a preview :
