Google Tone grants ability to talk

Google Tone turns on your computer's microphone on and uses your computer's speakers to exchange information like URLs with nearby computers connected to the Internet. The only thing keeping this tool from being a true game changer is it is not compatible yet with mobile devices but once it is available for iOS & Android this tool goes straight to being a potential Blockbuster!





This could allow quicker incident response times by allowing IT staff to bypass normal means of communication like email and when needed to be able to instantly communicate with all other devices around them simultaneously.  this is really helpful because it is not dependent on standard channels of communication that are unfortunately dependent on  Legacy infrastructures like phone lines or even Wi-Fi signals.  Because this tool works when everything else is down or hijacked by malicious attacker IT staff could theoretically push a fix to all devices via sound waves.

  1. So this must have been a foreshadow of the new Google Assistance app?
