Sound effects come to Google+ Hangouts

Google Has Just Added Another Cool Source of Entertainment : Sound Effects For Google + Hangouts.
Sound effects come to Google+ Hangouts


As teased by Google’s own Amit Fulay, there’s now a dozen different sound effects built right into Hangouts — expect everything from cheesy applause and laugh tracks to chirping, gongs, snare drums and ticking clocks. Your conversations will never be the same.
Additionally, developers can also include sound effects into their own apps with v1.2 of the Hangouts API. Right now, we can’t tell if Google will eventually allow developers to create their own sound effects, but that could be interesting for live shows and classes.
To use the new effects, start a Hangout in G+ and click on the “Google Effects” tab shown below.
In order to take advantage of this new feature, users will have to make sure they’re updated to the latest version of the Hangouts Plugin: v3.6. It should update automatically, but if you’re having any issues, you can download the plugin here.
These effects are vapid and whimsical, but sure to appeal to a certain set of Google’s userbase. Recently Google + Crossed 400 Million Users and 100 Million Monthly Active Members.Within 12 Months.
