Two new great features from Google

I just saw this presentation by Google on youtube and thought that I would share it with you. The presentation in it self is about an hour long (but still worth watching!), but if you don't have the time, they've released 2 short videos about the 2 main subjects of the presentation.

The first one is Google Goggles and is searching by picture. It lets you take pictures of books, landmarks and other things, and then gives you the informations it thinks your asking for.

The other one is Real Time Search. It lets you search a subject and then shows you the newest information on it, from twitter to serious news sites. It also takes you location into consideration, so the posts being shown is different from place to place.

Another cool feature that was announced was voice search in Chinese and Japanese. They also demonstrate an audio translate feature to android phones. They can all be seen in the presentation here.

  1. That's what I've been saying for a long time; If I am going to switch my phone it's going to be for Android!
