I also love Hangouts. On my Nexus 6, Hangouts manages both chat and SMS for me, so I only have to go to one app. Being able to call from it using my Google voice number, or video chat with family out of the country, has also been great for me.

It can have its place for sure. Just not for me. At least with FB they can't analyze your entries and manipulate your inbox with crap they feel is relevant. I had a Google Voice number for a few years. I found that people that I had to deal with outside of my friends and family didn't like it. They wouldn't call it back half the time or wouldn't answer the calls. Anyway, we are taking this kind of off topic. =)

I just find forums to be pretty clunky and too anonymous now personally which is one of the reasons why I don't hit them as often anymore.
