Video collaboration tools essential in business and education such as live webinars make it easy for anyone to meet regardless of time and place. The term 'webinar' itself comes from the words 'web' and 'seminar'. In the past, before information technology developed rapidly, seminars were held face-to-face by utilizing venues such as halls, ballrooms or meeting rooms.

But that changed drastically when there were various innovative inventions that made seminars possible to be held online. One of the online webinar tools that is currently often used is YouTube Live. Participants can take part in the webinar via their PCs, laptops and even smartphones without having to leave the house.

Recently, webinars have become the choice of many companies, institutions and agencies because of their ability to make real-time communication with various parties. Anyone including teachers/lecturers, students/students, professionals, business people, and others can use webinars to support their daily activities. Both presenters and participants can interact directly where questions and answers can be submitted immediately.

What is YouTube Live?

YouTube Live's live streaming tools allow content creators to interact with viewers in real-time via both video and chat. When a user goes live, it can be displayed in the viewer's personalized YouTube feed.

This really depends on whether they have subscribed to your channel, watched or liked previous videos or interacted with content similar to yours. In addition to webinars, YouTube Live offers all kinds of content including vlogs, music concerts, how-to videos, online classes and much more.

Officially launched in 2011, YouTube Live was initially only available to select partners. After a series of developments, YouTube Live is now available to all desktop and smartphone users. If you've never used YouTube Live for a webinar then now is the time for you to consider using it.

Interestingly, you can also connect YouTube with the Zoom video conferencing platform. You can live stream Zoom Meetings or Zoom Webinars on YouTube. This allows attendees to join webinars via Zoom to watch and comment on them via YouTube.

During a live broadcast, between the live stream and the actual Zoom Meetings there will be a delay of about 20 seconds. By using this, create event online will be easier for you
