The premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens is not far away. The peak of this film year, which will reach its boiling point on December 17, 2015, is almost here. Google has also contributed its own beep to the euphoria, which wants you to choose between the dark and the light side. You will find out which one you will choose and what the consequences will be.
Are smartwatches the future or a fad? The balance is leaning towards the first option, as traditional watch providers are also entering the smart watch market. One of the first is the Swiss watch giant TAG Heuer, which together with Google and Intel presented its first TAG Heuer Connected smartwatch. At first glance, this is a mirror image of the TAG Heuer Carrera wristwatch, but in reality it is a powerful computer. And if the CEO of TAG Heuer says that traditional mechanical watches are a thing of the past because they have no added value for younger users, smart watches are here to stay.
After Samsung and Apple had their say, Google also presented the new smartphone champion. Its largest phone has become smaller, and the Google Nexus 6P, unlike its predecessor Nexus 6 from 2014, was created together with the Chinese brand Huawei, and not the American Motorola. Google called its flagship the most premium mobile phone in history, and it has plenty of reasons for that.
Six simple colorful letters on a blank page. This is Google. One, if not the most powerful brand in the world and a name that has become an independent verb in the dictionary. They recently changed the look of their recognizable logo, but while tectonic shifts are taking place in the background with the restructuring of the company, where the parent company was renamed Alphabet, Google remains faithful to its previous appearance. The web giant left the colors of the letters as they are, but used a new typography where the letters are softer. On the other hand, the icon experienced a more visible change.
Internet giant Google has revealed which beauty questions are the most common in their search engine. If you're at least slightly interested in beauty, beauty trends, make-up and body care, check if you're asking Google the same questions as other curious people around the world. Here are the most searched beauty questions on Google…
The technological giant Google is penetrating every pore of computing and their latest "victim" is wireless routers. Recently, Google (or is it now Alphabet?) introduced an advanced wireless router for idiots, OnHub, equipped with 13 antennas of 2.4 GHz frequency (12 of which transmit the signal and one receives) and a data transfer speed of up to 1900 MB per second. Aesthetically perfect, it is intended for more demanding environments.
On paper, it pays to cover the roof with solar cells. Namely, this reduces the electricity bill, and can even bring income. But first you have to think about the costs, because photovoltaics are not cheap, and even before that you have to ask yourself whether your roof has solar potential at all. Getting a professional opinion on whether it's worth installing solar panels on your house can really hit your wallet, especially if the answer is 'no'. As with many things, Google now also has an answer to the question of whether your roof is suitable for a solar power plant.
Vacations are slowly coming to an end, which means that many of you are returning home with full "batteries", and especially with full memory cards due to the abundance of photos taken. There must have been several hundred of them. The days when we went to the photo studio and developed them are long gone, now we move most of them to the computer. Digital photography has completely changed the way we perceive memories. We used to put pictures in albums, today they are drowning unmarked in files on the computer. Therefore, we suggest that you consider the Google Photos application, where your photos will be automatically uploaded, sorted and tagged.
What would Google look like if it had been invented in the 80s? This is the question that puzzled the Australian company Mass:werk, who made a working vintage version of Google based on the technology that was available at the time. Are you curious about what browsing Google would have looked like thirty years ago? Check it out for yourself.
Have you ever had one of those days when you hoped you wouldn't run into anyone you know at a store or bar, or you really didn't feel like waiting in line? Hand in hand, when did you have it? And what does this have to do with Google? Everything. Google now provides us with information about store or bar visit statistics, so you can check the most popular times, i.e. when it is usually the busiest and when is the best time to go shopping, visit the gym or read the newspaper while sipping coffee.
Gone are the days of trying to come up with a convincing excuse for sending an email that wasn't quite ready to be sent. Now you can use the official "Undo Send" function in Gmail or "Cancel sending" cancels the sent e-mail. We have exactly 30 seconds.
Google recently added a new tool called Which Phone to help us find the Android phone for us amidst the flood of phones. The tool asks us to choose three activities for which we most often use our phone and determine how often we use it for that. Then Google "thinks" a bit and offers a choice of three mobile phones and links to online stores.
