If you can’t get enough of Gmail’s Priority Inbox feature, or if you’ve got an OCD-like predisposition to managing your inbox, rejoice. Google is adding several additional inboxes to Gmail. Staving off boredom by organizing your e-mail while your girlfriend tunes into Grey’s Anatomy? Yeah, I know.
The changes won’t be …
The voyeurs of social media would have you believe that people want to connect with other people on an instinctive level, that humans are purely social animals. And who can prove them wrong? Mark Zuckerberg and his peer wunderkind have built the framework to our digital connections and we’re lured in again and again. We fill them with …
Picasa and Blogger, as you know them, are biting the dust.
Google is retiring the two services – well, they’re not retiring them so much as renaming them. Yup, say hello to “Google Photos” and “Google Blogs.” Mashable has reported that several other Google services may also get the renaming axe, but YouTube will be immune …
Well, this is awkward. It appears that by a substantial margin, Mark Zuckerberg is currently the most followed person on the new social network on the block, Google+.
According to the Google+ Statistics Counter, the Zuckerberg account has nearly 10,000 more followers than Google’s co-founder Larry Page, with 29,543 and 19,878, …
Happy Fourth of July! Google pulled the plug on its realtime search while you were barbecuing some ribs and slamming a few beers out on the patio. Now welcome back to the real world.
So while most of America was wrapped up in its three-day weekend, Google disabled its Realtime Search feature. Coincidentally (or not so coincidentally), …
Is Hulu for sale? Not exactly.
The L.A. Times reports that Google and Microsoft have both been entertaining the idea of purchasing the online video service, which is jointly owned by NBC Universal, Fox, and Disney-owned ABC.
However, L.A. Times says, “The presentations to the potential suitors are a first step as Hulu’s owners …
Guys, remember that old social network everyone used to use? No, no — not MySpace. What are we, savages? I know it’s been for-e-ver, but Facebook! Duh. For the uninitiated to Google+ (which as a writer is still really weird to type out), we’ve been giving the new kid on the block its due praise, despite a few bugs here and …
Google’s gone America’s Next Top Model and given Gmail a new makeover. The only difference? There will be no stick-thin girls crying about their new hair bob.
Gmail won’t be the only Google service getting a redesign: it’s also slated to hit Google Calendar as well. It is all part of a “Google-wide effort” to focus all of …
Has anything gone from “That’s dumb!” to “Ooh, I wish I could get in…” to “Hey! This is cool!” as quickly as Google+ has?
It’s like a hot new nightclub opened in town, and everyone’s waiting to get in—but you’re not really a party person, so you’re at home playing on the internet sorting your contacts into Google+ Circles. You …
At 3:54 PM on Tuesday afternoon, I received an e-mail telling me that my friend Hope was “hanging out.” Having no idea what this meant—and being at work and therefore in no position to go “hang out” with her—I ignored both the e-mail and the novel “(Google+)” label next to her name. Surely this was another of those Google …
Oooh, things might start getting interesting around here. That’s because for the first time, Google’s thrown down a real social networking contender with Google+. Facebook finally might have gotten its first real rival.
Forget Buzz. Forget Wave. I almost even forgot what Google Wave was called. While my first impressions of …
The British Government doesn’t like people being able to find certain things on the internet. What other conclusion could anyone come to after seeing Google’s transparency report of requests from government agencies to remove content and/or hand over user data for the last half of 2010, when the U.K.’s items requested for removal is …
