MODERATORS
Google still has a chat embedded in Gmail, but because Google is grotesquely incompetent they've never succeeded in making a good messaging service. I think they've had like 15, but they are too fucked up to just make one work.

One of the things I bring up if someone says "we should run the government like a business"
The hangouts app was actually sick. You could connect to Google voice and your actual phone number allowing you to:
It was available within gmail or on its own dedicated site, and it automatically collated conversations regardless of send medium.
It made communication free and easy regardless of what device I was using--then they rebranded it and made it IM only--then they killed it.
It's still IM only but not dead. Hangouts became Chat and all your old Hangouts IMs should still be there. I use it all the time.
