This one-of-a-kind resource contains 500 pages of jaw-dropping hacks, mods, and customizations. These include creating mashups with data from other sources such as Flickr, building a space station tracker, hacking Maps with Firefox PiggyBank, and building a complete community site with Maps and Earth. Now you can map out locations, get driving directions, zoom into any point on the globe, display real time traffic, and much more.
Google Maps, Google Reader, Google Trends, Google Alerts, Google Groups -- these all started as Google Labs projects and eventually graduated out of the system.
Everything else—YouTube, Android, Chrome, Nest, Fiber, Gmail, Google Earth, Google+, Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Maps, Google Capital—contributes just 10 percent.
Specifically, the bug "looks at the three places where Google only shows Google+ results and then automatically Googles Google to see if Google finds a result more relevant than Google+," explains the site.
The biggest innovation coming out of Google these days is not Google Maps for the iPhone, nor those future-now Google Glass goggles, but Google's driverless cars, says Google chairman Eric Schmidt.
As of right now, the number one Google result for "Google Chrome" surfaces a link to the browser download page. For others in similar situations Google has suspended their Google rankings, or pushed them down altogether -- it even with Google Japan and BeatThatQuote, a company it owns.
Not only does Google give preference to Google+ over Facebook or Twitter, it also replaces valuable advertising space reserved for non-Google companies with these Google+ profile suggestions, which show up on the right hand column of the screen, as you can see below. Google's favoring its content even though it's not the best.
Some of the headlines: "Is Google+ Going To Kill Facebook?," "Hangout Is Breakout Feature Of Google+, When Will Facebook Match?," "Can Google+ dethrone Facebook?," "What Google+ does better than Facebook." So Google's decision to make it difficult to import your Facebook contacts into Google+ could be a slight, a little jab at Mark Zuckerberg and his team.
After a bit of Googling, I found some helpful advice on Google Music's known issues page (so, to review, I used Google to find advice for a problem in a Google app, on a Google-powered phone, to access a Google service).
As part of the public launch of its new social network, Google+, Google will be renaming several of its non-Google services within the next couple months, according to Mashable's Ben Parr. Two unnamed sources tell Parr that Google's brand unification effort--the "largest in company history"--will include renaming Picasa "Google Photos" and Blogger "Google Blogs." While the "rebranding could upset some existing customers," Parr writes, Google will also be able to integrate the two services, which are "both social products that improve as more people use them," into Google+.
We have already taught you how to use Google Plus Nick to get a vanity URL for your Google+ profile, how to turn your favorite Google+ profiles into an Atom feed for easy reading, how to copy all of your Facebook photos to a Google+ profile, and how to sync your Instagram and Google+ accounts.
Remember that Google's products include Google Search, Gmail, and YouTube, so one has to wonder about the 40 percent of Google+ users who don't use a single Google product in a day.
Gmail is part of the Google Display Network, which also includes YouTube, Google Finance, Google Books, Google Maps, Blogger, and other properties.
