Well the feature has been rolled out to users in India today according to a blog post on the <a href=\"http:\/\/googleindia.blogspot.sg\/2013\/02\/hangouts-in-gmail-now-available-in-india.html\" target=\"_blank\">Google India blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Google Hangouts is one of the key features of Google Plus which allows up to 9 users to have a video conference. Not only that, you can watch and discuss YouTube videos at the same time, view and edit documents in collaboration with others, select games to play from the plethora of apps available and also apply funny effects to the video stream. Keeping in mind that a few places in India still don&#8217;t have very high speed internet, there is also an option to switch over to an ultra low bandwidth mode. Hangouts can also be scheduled with the help of Google Calendar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You do need to have a <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/u\/0\/b\/117918285859180560490\/117918285859180560490\/posts\" target=\"_blank\">Google Plus<\/a> account to make use of Hangouts. This might be an attempt by Google to increase its adoption rate in India. You can launch Hangouts by clicking on the Hangout button at the top of your chat list. You might have to wait a while in case the feature has not been made available to your account yet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a title=\"Top 8 Google services or Features that can help boost productivity\" href=\"http:\/\/www.techdivine.com\/tdblog\/2012\/07\/top-8-google-services-or-features-that-can-help-boost-productivity\/\" target=\"_blank\">Google Hangouts is a very powerful feature<\/a> that can be used by individuals and business owners alike. Most Android phones come installed with Google services so there is no need for other video chat services like Skype. Are you excited about this new change in Gmail?
