Since Google+ has made Hangouts On Air available to all users, the guide below is probably unnecessary for most people.  Still, it is useful if you'd like to have more control over what gets recorded from the Hangout, your screen, and/or computer audio.  A guide to using Google+ Hangout On Air  is here. 

The screencast and guide below show how I stream and record Google+ Hangouts (or group skype conversations) to a webcasting service like Ustream.tv, Livestream.com or Justin.tv. Settings will vary depending on which hardware and operating system you use.  Everything below applies to streaming on a Windows7 machine. For Mac Users, check out Lorna's excellent guide to Streaming Media on a Mac or Paul's Mac Settings for LiveCasting.  For Windows XP Users, check out the Webcast Academy's guide to recording skype conversations and live streaming .
