[Chrome Extension] Chat for Google, keeps you connected Easily

Sometimes we locate tools are extension that may not be Android specific, but offer something to our readers that we know they will appreciate seeing. This time it wasn’t out doing. You can thank Ryan Mills for that. This is an extension for all of us that use the Google Chrome browser as our main web browser, or those of you that have a Chromebook. It connects to your normal Google chat and once installed, provides you the same functionality as the Google Talk application that many of us have up and running all day. The key difference is this runs in the background and when a new chat comes in, it pops up from the bottom and stats on top of all your windows. Chat like normal and close the window. When your buddy replies it pops right back up. Beats switching to the talk app all the time. Another added benefit of the extension is the ability to instantly launch a Google+ Hangout from it. Giving this a dual function for staying connected.
