This totally freaked me out.
I clicked the link to be opened in a new tab - and continued what I was doing.
I heard that beeping sound, and was completely baffled where it was coming from (didn't sound like it was coming from the speakers).
You should have seen me picking up papers on my desk listening to them. I listened to every potential port on my phone to see if it was giving off this sound.
I felt like I was going crazy while I was doing it, but I just couldn't figure out the source of the sound. Thinking back, if a camera was in my office, that woulda been hella funny to watch.
- edelans 13y agoahah, I did exactly the same =)
- Kaizo 13y agoDid the same thing too, couldn't find the source at all since it didn't sound like it came from the computer. Thought my phone had gone nuts because it had no indication at all of any alarm...
- wahsd 13y agoTypical Google. Uninformative, trite, bland, uninspired user experience. That's the best auditory indicator they could find? The following may not be a popular statement here, but it seems Google is still overrun by engineers that are humanoid-challenged. With all due respect to engineers, engineers are not human readable.
- marcamillion 13y agoPretty sure painting with a broad brush is one of the quicker ways for your opinion to be ignored. #justsaying
- Semaphor 13y agoOne of the reasons I'm really happy about the feature to show what tab is playing sound in chrome. I was somewhat freaked out as well but only until I saw the movement in one of the tabs.
- chubot 13y agoJust happened to me TWICE :) Finally figured it out.
- thrownaway2424 13y agoSame. I just marched all over the office looking for the annoying beeping sound.
