According to a report in Geek.com, Google is considering a plan to unifying all their messaging platforms into a single service, which is expected to be called Babble.
Geek.com says that Google Talk, Hangout, Voice, Messenger, Chat for Drive collaboration, and the Google Talk for G+ will all be rolled into a Babble.
On the domain name front, Babble.com is owned by Babble Media, Inc. of New York
There also seems to be at least one trademark on the term Babble by a Herman Miller, Inc. of Michigan although Babble.com logo, seems to make reference with a thanks to Disney by the trademark symbol on its Babble site.
For the millions who as seekingalpha.com suggests will be doing a lot of babbling in the future, we are happy to report that our company, Worldwide Media, Inc., the publisher of TheDomains.com is the owner of Babbling.com.
Babble is not a business…
– Babble is an industry that includes facebook, twitter and other vehicles to make folks feel important by communicating irrelevant information.
Disney bought Babble Media in 2011, so it’s probably safe to say that a generous offer would have to be made before they would part with the Babble.com name.
Is Babble a good brand for chat? What about gchat? “Let’s babble about a deal on Thursday.” “Let’s gchat about a deal on Thursday.”
