- patrickaljord 7y agoAt this point it wouldn't surprise me if Duo gets renamed...
- ProZsolt 7y agoIt was only two at the beginning. The desktop app still not supports groups
- lonelappde 7y agoDuodecimal == 12
- keyle 7y agoNice one!
- adrianmonk 7y agoThey already had Hangouts when they started creating Duo, so maybe it means duo-ver (do-over).
- brokensegue 7y agoDuo was originally announced alongside "Allo". But Allo was killed off last year https://allo.google.com/ https://allo.google.com/
- adrianmonk 7y agoYes, I'm familiar with the history. The tendency to launch things, kill them off, and launch something else was kind of the point of the joke.
- shp0ngle 7y agoBecause in the start, google had Allo and Duo. and Allo was for chat and Duo for calling. And then they killed Allo, but not Duo.
