Only ten people can join a hangout. What about
others that would like to listen in live? They
CAN! In this case you create a hangout on Air.
With a Hangout on Air you can broadcast to an
unlimited audience by linking your YouTube
channel to the hangout. When the broadcast
finishes this converts to a YouTube video! Totally
amazing!

yet. After everyone is settled, click the “Start
Broadcast” button in the top right corner. You’ll
receive one last reminder that you’re about to
broadcast live to the public. Hit “okay” and after
a 10-second countdown the title at the top will
switch to “On Air.” You’ll be able to see the
number of live viewers along the top.

automatically replace the live player so
individuals that missed the Hangout can still
view it. You’ll also have the option of editing
your video using YouTube’s Video Editor.
In turn your viewers can watch either in your
Google+ stream or in your YouTube Channel

YouTube channel!
