2020.04.11 Google Meet & Google Chat / Adios S Voice / Contact Tracing / Your Stimulus Payment
Sunday, 12 April, 2020
In this episode of BTLR, we start off the news by poking a little fun at Google, as they are notorious for changing their services and features up at the drop of a hat, in this specific case we're talking about how Hangouts Meet became Google Meet, and Hangouts Chat was re-re-branded Google Chat. We're also discussing Samsung and their decision to kill off their own proprietary digital assistant S Voice. And of course a day can't go by where we can't talk about how the Coronavirus pandemic is effecting literally everything, in this case we're discussing how Apple and Google are apparently teaming up to create a contact tracing tool to track who has the virus, who they gave it to, and who gave it to them. And finally, (Pay no attention to the thumbnail of this episode, there was a slight mistake there), we'll be talking about the IRS setting up a forthcoming website to help you track where your stimulus payment is.
