Google developing GMeet teleconferencing tool – report
GMeet will reportedly allow users to schedule and join teleconference calls with a single click

MANILA, Philippines – Reports online are pointing towards Google building a new teleconferencing tool called Google Meetings or GMeet, which appears to be a souped-up version of Google Hangouts.

9to5Google reported Wednesday, April 8, that Florian Kiersch on Google+ spotted information regarding GMeet.

Kiersch said logins currently appear to be limited to Google users, making Google users capable of creating events. Guests can also use GMeet though if they have an event code or know a participant.

According to 9to5Google, GMeet appears to let users schedule and join teleconference calls with one click, rather than needing to dial into a teleconference call.

A report from Phandroid pointed out that Gmeet and Google Meeting searches pick up code strings from as early as 2011, supporting the idea that GMeet is powered by Google Hangouts. – Rappler.com
