Google Hangouts Update: Wider Thumbnail Image for YOU
2 min Video: When you are on the inside of a Hangout Video Call or a Hangout on Air (HOA), you will now see a wider version of your own thumbnail image in the filmstrip. But only your thumbnail and only on the Inside of the Hangout Interface.

This change just happened on the 19th of June, 2014.

Check out this quick 2 minute video that shows the inside of a HOA broadcast. It helps you understand why the thumbnail change matters and you'll also get a quick view of another update that just happened called "Pinning". We used to call the same function "Blue Boxing" but now that the box around the thumbnail image is white, we likely will start calling it "pinning".

I've got another video in the works to go into further detail on how pinning works for Hangouts and HOA (Hangouts on Air).
