Hangouts Has It's Own Website

Google recently introduced a new space for Hangouts on the web.  If you access Hangouts from your computer, the new site is pretty nifty, providing you with all your Google contacts and options for getting in contact with them.

If you're like me, you get your text messages through the Hangout app on your phone.  Accessing the website allows you to send SMS through your computer and not even have to touch your phone.  Check it out:  hangouts.google.com
