Michele - a Google+ Hangout is both audio and video - we attend the hangout and are all connected through the internet and google) check out Hangouts through Google; but we are able to talk and listen and share our screens (can watch someone's powerpoint or watch them work with their Legacy program). If someone has a webcam and speakers/mic (most but not all computers); and there is also a sidebar chat function if someone does not have a mic they can type their questions. I also belong to the Guild of One Name Studies and we are now able to hangout with members in Australia, England, Scotland, Canada, etc. - all we have to remember is the time difference!
