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

Hangouts Gets Upgraded

Have you noticed your Hangouts App looks a little different?  It's been upgraded and has a completely new look.

Now, the process of adding an attachment has been simplified and sharing photos, emojis, and location happens directly from the chat box.  No more sending one photo at a time, you can now send multiple photos at once.

My favorite new feature is sending stickers.  You get to them by clicking the Sticker Icon between the photo and location icons in the text box.
