What kind of a belt is that!?

 

[Asgaro]

WhatsApp is king.

Sorry Allo.

There are still countries where WhatsApp hasn't taken off.

For example, it's huge in The Netherlands while it's nearly extinct here in Belgium. (Most here use either SMS or Facebook Messenger (or iMessage on iOS).

 

[Mesousa]

Love the way she said "graph" there.

 

[Jigolo]

Wow the app seems amazing.

 

[KarmaCow]

The assistant cards does seem neat though if everyone can see it.

 

[bjaelke]

Dat half tuck.

 

[RoadHazard]

Why does it have to have that dumb name? Call it something that makes you understand what it is! Google Talk/Messenger/Chat/whatever. But I guess those names all belong to abandoned products, sigh.

 

[Askherserenity]

Woah, making the reservation through the messenger?

 

[Lnkn52]

What kind of a belt is that!?

Google Belt™

 

[diaspora]

I don't know why this is a standalone app and simply not integrated into hangouts or messenger?

 

[TheAbsolution]

OK, this is cool.

 

[Funky Papa]

Rebecca pls, you haven't eaten a hamburger in years.

 

[Hasney]

So can this combine SMS and online messages in one group chat or is this just going to be more bullshit?

 

[Skinpop]

google bloat. i'll stick to telegram.

 

[Interfectum]

plz clap

 

[pronk420]

I like their shrewd strategy of creating hype for products and then announcing they are 'rolling out' ie everyone will have forgotten about it by the time it is released

 

[raphier]

Ok, Google, Feed me the spoon!

 

[mauaus]

Nathan's Sister

Exactly what i though... Uncharted reference?
haha

 

[Stat Flow]

Nothing compelling enough to make me switch from iMessage since everyone I know has an iPhone and I've got Macs... but I'm interested to see if Google can detract anyone away from WhatsApp.

Damn this is getting awkward.

I don't think these thinks can be done with sms.

 

[Angelus Errare]

It's cool but by the time this is out, everyone else will have stolen/added this idea to their messaging app.

I suspect Facebook will be one of the first.

 

[Mesousa]

Rebecca is soo awkward.

 

[Frustrated_me]

@google assistant bot integrated in, cool.

 

[Dr_Boris_Goltz]

Bwhaaaaa that chin......................... okay.

 

[Jigolo]

The app is legit blowing my mind right now. This thing is extremely powerful

 

[Hasney]

@google Rebecca seductively eating a burger

 

[oti]

OK, this is cool.

It really is. But this also means you skip Google Adspace which makes me think they'll integrate ads in some way in there.

If this takes off, that is.

 

[W1SSY]

Do all these people actually use android wear or are they just forcing them to wear one while on the stage?

 

[massoluk]

I can see Yelp readying their lawyers, ready to sue in the future if this takes off

 

[RoadHazard]

I don't know why this is a standalone app and simply not integrated into hangouts or messenger?

Because that's not how Google does things. Especially when it comes to messaging, their goal seems to be to make everything as fragmented and confusing as possible, thus killing any one product's chances of really taking off.

 

[Ensirius]

Real Madrid baby yeah!

 

[D4Danger]

trolling Madrid (they won the game but lost the league)

top banter

 

[kiguel182]

Can it send gifs? because Facebook Messenger can. And that's all I need.

 

[Funky Papa]

Real Madrid scrub.

Now I'm sad.

 

[SimleuqiR]

This is what it would look like if Nintendo made a WhatsApp competitor

Is that a bad thing?

 

[Frustrated_me]

HALA MADRID!!! Yes Rebecca!

 

[Lnkn52]

I don't think my Nexus 6 could run this app smoothly

 

[Interfectum]

Because that's not how Google does things. Especially when it comes to messaging, their goal seems to be to make everything as fragmented and confusing as possible, thus killing any one product's chances of really taking off.

Seems like a solid plan.

 

[kami_sama]

The most requested feature of Whatsapp

 

[Hasney]

Eh, if you get one free for working there, it's pretty handy for a notification machine.

 

[Randdalf]

That's a team not a roster

 

[Vanillalite]

I already told you this is fucking soo stupid it's funny Google #Cate

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

plz clap

plz guys

guys, plz

plz

 

[hitsugi]

Seems accurate, although it is completely insane.

 

[Stat Flow]

"Everyone's Favorite" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Funky Papa]

Rebecca is soo awkward.

Google's latest attempts at being hip have come out incredibly cringy and forced.

 

[oti]

CRY FOT GREECE RONALDO CRY

HELLAS HELLAS HELLAS

Thanks for reminding me of why I went to the Apple ecosystem.

Now I'm not sure which cancer to pick

 

[D4Danger]

Is that a bad thing?

that was about the sticker thing. this thread moves quickly.

 

[Asgaro]

HALA MADRID!!! Yes Rebecca!
