Disco, Google's Secret Group Messaging App, Gets Pushy With Version 2.0

Google seems to be going out of their way not to promote Disco, the group messaging app built by Google's Slide team. When we first revealed the existence of the iPhone app and website (at disco.com) in March, Google wouldn't comment on it. A few weeks ago, they released an Android version of the app as well. Was it touted on a Google blog anywhere? Nope. And yesterday brought version 2.0 of the app. Again, nada. So we'll do Google's job for them and tell you that version 2.0 of Disco is a nice upgrade. When we did a first look at the app, we noted that while it looked nice, it was fairly limited because it relied solely on SMS. Version 2.0 adds the ability to move away from SMS as use Push notifications to receive messages.
