Okay I admit it; I think the new G+ is awesome, and I really like the Hangouts app. It's official (probably has been for a while): I'm a Google fanboy.

Okay I got the Hangout app for Android finally. It's pretty amazing looking.

Does anyone have any idea how to add people to Hangouts yet? As in, get the same list I have running on G+ into Hangouts?

Googlers, help!

I'm signing up for Google Play All Access, and I have applied a host of Play Store Credit to my account to pay for it, and it won't let me! When I go through the activation, it tells me I can put it on my normal credit card, or redeem a credit. I've already redeemed them, though, they're on my account! 

The message says if I use the credit card to start the service, after the free month I'll get charged per the usual. Can I switch to using my credit on the Play Store once I sign up? 

I want to listen to some music, help a guy out!

Here's a question for Googlers:

Gchat and Hangout; what's up with the different list? Is that going to consolidate? I have a ton of contacts in gchat when I'm looking at gmail, and like 15 in g+; the same 15 in the new Hangouts. How does it designate who goes there? Why is it separate from gmail's gchat list? 

Also, why are actual old-school Hangouts using an external Hangout chat AND an internal chat? /cc +Russell Holly +Chris Sewell 

Inquiring minds.

So you can tap "Hangouts and it goes away. I get it.

Okay, it's fixed after I restarted the Pixel. You probably don't have to go to such lengths. I will say that the new G+ is amazing.

I will admit to some weirdness with the new G+;

Ready to import data into Google Cloud Storage? On Wednesday, Dave Barth and I will be presenting:

Importing Large Data Sets into Google Cloud Storage:
https://developers.google.com/events/io/sessions/333473305

We'll cover tools and techniques for efficiently copying data, common limitations and how to address them, tips to simplify the process, and features to cleanly integrate post-processing steps. Hope to see you there!

The talk will be recorded and available online soon (days) afterwards.

We will also be hosting Google Cloud Storage Office Hours at the Cloud Platform Sandbox. Office Hours schedules will be posted on the main site soon. 

Google Cloud Storage will also play a supporting role in many of the sessions in the Google Cloud Platform track. Check out the whole schedule at the link below.
