Even today, though, you can't dial into a Hangout. Thanks to TC Disrupt alum UberConference, though, you can now do just that. The company is launching its integration with Google+ Hangouts today." - - - Opening up video Hangout communication conferences to participants who only have a phone represents a very powerful capability in a range of situations, including emergencies of various kinds. It also means that you can now use Hangouts On Air to conduct a Global Call-In "Talk Radio" Program -- permitting anyone (even without Google accounts) to watch the show live via YouTube and participate by phone. Very cool. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
Interesting meaning that uberconference could be a bridge to link non-google users and google hangout users together I mentioned uberconference as a conference solution for us to review to add to the list of conferencing solutions. I'll try to organise a date and time for that Dev Anand On 7 February 2014 07:36, Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl@gih.com> wrote:
