Question

Hi Richard,

I discovered this week that YouTube no longer supports using your webcam to record video. They’ve suggested a few different tools as alternatives, but I was wondering if you’d recommend any web based tools that could be used by both Mac and PC users. I’m planning a workshop about creating your own videos and I’d like to show the same tool to all our faculty.

Thank you!
Debbie

Richard’s Recommendation

Richard shared one of his favorite tools, Google+ Hangouts On-Air, as the way to address Debbie’s question. Richard also shares his thoughts on why YouTube has taken away this feature.
