Google Acquires Jibe Mobile
- wyldfire 11y agoWould this/could this replace Hangouts? Or maybe WebRTC is a good complement for Project Fi?
- DiabloD3 11y agoThis would be nice, but Google has a habit of buying companies for certain people or certain technologies and just ditches the actual projects the companies are doing. Sometimes said people or technology are integrated well, sometimes they aren't and we never see those features ever again.
- harryf 11y agoMeanwhile Google badly needs to go on a mobile spending spree. Companies I would buy in their position include Localytics, AppsFlyer, Contentful and mParticle. Buying those would significantly increase trust and buy-in from mobile app developers, who today probably have more interest in Facebook and Parse.com than anything else
- sidcool 11y agoHopefully this betters the Hangouts app, on Android at least.
- BillSaysThis 11y agoDoesn't hurt that Jibe's office is a few blocks from the GPlex I bet.
