So everyone is chattering away about the new Hangout experiences, but more importantly, the mobile updates we’ve all been waiting for (Android only, sorry iOS peeps) have arrived… am updating my app through the Market now… so we shall see how it all goes!

Check it:

Join Hangouts from the mobile app (duh…no one can shut up about this one yet)

Set profile photo

Huddle is now Messenger

Send photos in Messenger

Long press on post to +1, share and mute (this, I like)

Improved video posts support

(does this mean YT links will now embed if I post them via mobile?)

Improved public search for people

Granular push notification settings (AWESOME!)

Move app to your SD card (I ask for this from any app)

Various bug and performance improvements

Post and participate in a Messenger convos via SMS (U.S.)

Improved +mention support (YESS!)

Just FYI You must update your G+ app through the Android Market to see the changes.

“Huddle” is now “Messenger”? LOL. Kinda reeks of AIM or AOL…IMHO

I’m quite certain I do not like the way they moved the filmstrip (that’s what Google calls the row of video camera images of all the participants in Hangout) to the side, and vertically.

The Google+ Hangout experience just got even neater

Mobile Hangouts, Hangouts On Air, and Hangouts with extras (screensharing, Sketchpad, Google Docs, Named Hangouts).

If you haven’t been in a Google+ Hangout yet, you’re already missing out on the experience, but now maybe you’d might want to give it a try?

Also released today

– Hangout APIs – for the geek in all of us

(Mohamed Mansour, I’m looking at YOOOOO, LOL)

– Google Search in G+
