You might not always enjoy them, but YouTube parties are inevitable, and can actually be great fun.

There’s now a YouTube party mode in Google+ Hangouts, which makes it possible to share single videos or playlists between users which then run in sync. It’s probably the best feature to appear on Google+ yet—but then, that’s not a difficult title to grab. [YouTube via Engadget]
