Sarah Hill, an anchor for KOMU-TV in Columbia, Missouri, has been inviting her Google+ followers to join her in live hangouts, the network’s video chat service. KOMU news hosts a Hangout during the 5 p.m. newscast to give viewers a look at the newsroom. She also interviews people in the Hangout on-air about their reactions to the day’s news. This is one of the most unique and revolutionary use of G+ hangouts and has paved way for other networks to join in. In one of her hangouts another anchor from detroit also joined in and two live broadcasts were being conducted simultaneously within a single hangout.. Quite cool indeed ! I also joined in these hangouts and it was quite fun !
