YouTube adds Google+ 'Hangouts' Google has announced this weekend the addition of Google+'s Hangouts to YouTube.
By using the Hangouts feature, YouTube users can have a shared video watching experience.

To take advantage of the new feature, Google+ users need to hit "Share" under the video pane of the video they are watching, then hit "Watch with your friends: Start a Google+ Hangout."

You will also need the Google Voice and Video plugin (most people who use Gtalk will have this already) or you can install it when prompted.

Finally, hit anybody in your Circles that you want to share the video with and voila, group video watching.
