You can now search contacts from your Chromebook’s app launcher

Search contact from launcherHere is a nice tip for quickly and easily finding your contacts on a Chromebook. You could go to Gmail or Hangouts and manually look for those you want to contact, but with the latest update Google has made it much easier to reach out to your contacts.

The latest feature allows you to search for people, just as you would search for a website or application on your Chromebook’s app launcher. After finding your contact, you can easily initiate a Google Hangout or an email.

The process is very simple. There are two ways to find your contacts.
