Google is announcing a whole bunch of Workspace updates intended to improve virtual collaboration. But as a, I have to say the new feature I’m most excited about is in-meeting emoji reactions in Google Meet.
Zoom has a similar feature that I find really useful. It’s a great tool to indicate how I’m feeling about something without having to unmute and disrupt an entire meeting, and I think they’ll be handy in Meet as well. Google says these in-meeting reactions will roll out in April. If you want to see people more easily while you’re working on a Google Doc, Sheet, or Slide, you’ll soon be able to start or bring a Meet call to one of those applications, where you’ll see meeting participants right next to what you’re working on. This feature will be available in the coming weeks.
Dedicated windows app is too much to ask apparently
Thanks! 🧘♀️💡😊💚
