Let’s all watch live cat videos together

Adriene Hill Aug 1, 2011

If you’ve been wondering what, exactly, to do with your Google+ account, here’s an idea.
According to Mashable, Google is adding live YouTube streaming to Google+ hangouts (those are the sites live video chat sessions.) This means you and your buddies can watch a football game, in-real time, together.

Or, maybe a live stream of your cat, doing some really cute tricks.

I suppose this will also cut down on the need for typing “LOL”–because you’ll actually see your friends laughing. That seems to me a big bonus.

There’s a lot happening in the world.  Through it all, Marketplace is here for you. 

You rely on Marketplace to break down the world’s events and tell you how it affects you in a fact-based, approachable way. We rely on your financial support to keep making that possible.
