Google+ app updated to include Google Hangouts... advertisement.

I just wrote about how Google released Hangouts and didn't include integration into the Google+ Messenger portion of the Google+ app.

Well the update to the Google+ app was released today. It now includes Google Hangouts... as an advertisement. If you goto Google+ Messenger you will be greeted with a rather large portion of your screen saying "Update to Hangouts Bring conversations to life with photos, emoji, and video calls for free."

I guess this ansewers the question as to if Google+ Messanger is going to be integrated into Googe Hangouts. The answer is no, your old converations are still trapped there, they just expect you to stop using it. Sure you might have months and months of converastions among multiple people that you would love to have transfered to Google Hangouts, but it looks like that just isn't going to happen.

It's better to know then to wonder I suppose.
