Other Features - Google Chat

When typing a message in Google Chat, type @ and start typing the person’s name to call them out. As you type, their name will populate in a popup for you to click on. If the person you’re trying to tag is not in the space you are typing in, it will give you a quick option to add them to the space.
Tagging a user will send them a notification in Chat.
