If you had a Chromecast plugged into your TV, and a Google Home…
And if I had the same…
Then maybe they should be able to talk to each other. You know, telepresence. Call it Google Present.
And if every household (probably in their kitchen) had a setup like this — we could all “Hangout” together, all the time, that is, never off. We could always be connected.
“Hey G-Home, is my Dad home?”
“Hey son…”
“Hey Dad. Did you see what Sis’ sent me?”
“No, what was that?”
“Here, hold on. Hey G-Home, call up sister Kassandra.”
“Hey brother, what’s up? Oh, I see Dad’s here too.”
And so it would go. All the tech is there. it just needs to get connected and packaged right.
Google Present — my present to google.
