Google+ Hangouts On Air just got interesting for artists. The search giant launched the broadcast facility on its social network last year to a limited number of users, and has now opened up it up to all and sundry.
That means musicians can now stream their music Hangouts live from Google+, a YouTube channel or a website to the rest of the globe. During broadcasts, they can also look inside Hangouts to find out how many people are watching their concerts live.
Once the broadcast’s over, Google uploads a public recording to the user’s YouTube channel, and to the original Google+ post, to make it easy to share and discuss the broadcast post-event.
Daria Musk last year claimed the first concert performed on a Google+ Hangout when she performed a six and a half hour virtual concert. The artist – who boasts close to 1.4 million people including her in their Google+ circles – followed that up with another global concert two weeks ago.
