Google+ And YouTube Introduce Hangouts On Air

Thank you, Lifehacker.  This is why I love you so.

Google+ Hangouts, our favorite free video chatting service, is rolling out the ability to broadcast your Hangouts live and save them directly to YouTube with "Hangouts on Air."
A handful of content creators have been testing out the service for the last several weeks, and it is just now beginning to roll out to the public. Setup couldn't be simpler: just check the box to broadcast the Hangout before you begin, confirm your YouTube credentials, and start recording. Your Hangout will start broadcasting live on your Google+ page, YouTube Channel, and any site where you embedded the live player.
This has major implications, including letting people publish their own little productions with live interaction from friends.  It will give millions of creative people a way to collaborate.  Our communication can be preserved, from business meetings to chats to complete video series.

Simple but awesome.
