Google Hangouts Easter Eggs - Commands

 Hangouts connects millions of people everyday. But it doesn't stop Google from adding little tricks that would bring a smile to your face. This is a continuation of the Hangouts series, and we will be discussing 'commands'.

1] /me

This is a unique Egg. Just start the message with '/me' and type a string of words and see how '/me' is replaced by your name, and the rest of the message remains the same.

2] /roll

Let Google roll the dice for you! Typing /roll in the message box gives you a random number between 1 and 6 (both inclusive).



3] /bikeshed

Bored with the usual grey background of Hangouts? Type '/bikeshed' in the message box and watch as the background change to a random color!

4] /8ball

Google gives you some advice! Type '/8ball' in message box, and watch as Google replies with a affirmative, non-committal or a negative answer!

5] /coinflip

Why the need to carry around a real coin when Google can flip a virtual one for you?

I can't imagine Hangouts (probably even life) without these entertaining commands. I feel that it will be same with you when you realize how useful these commands are.

Thanks, and Happy Hunting!
