Google+ Hangouts On Air

   Posted by: Jeff Owens   in Google

So if you have something to say—as an aspiring artist, a global celebrity, or a concerned citizen—you can now go live in front of a global audience. With just a few clicks, you’ll be able to:

  • Broadcast publicly. By checking “Enable Hangouts On Air,” you can broadcast your live hangout—from the Google+ stream, your YouTube channel or your website—to the entire world.
  • See how many viewers you’ve got. During your broadcast, you can look inside the hangout to see how many people are watching live.
  • Record and re-share. Once you’re off the air, we’ll upload a public recording to your YouTube channel, and to your original Google+ post. This way it’s easy to share and discuss your broadcast after it’s over.

TextMate 2.0

TextMate 2.0

TextMate users have been waiting for the 2.0 release of their beloved text editor for over 5 years. Hints that it was 90% complete and full of exciting features kept fans anxiously waiting. Today, Allan Odgaard has finally released a “public alpha” of TextMate 2.0. It is currently available to anyone who has a TextMate license.

After having played with the editor for a bit, I have to say I really like the changes. Some notable changes are:

  • Project drawer – replaced with a file browser sidebar, it includes SCM-badging.
  • Search in project – merged with regular find dialog.
  • Folder specific settings – variables and settings can now be set on a folder basis.
  • Themes – you can now change font and font sizes per scope.
  • Snippets – new syntax for pop-up menus.
  • Session restore – now restores the full session including unsaved changes.
