No WebView required, with native YouTube Player API for Android
Friday, December 21, 2012
By Scott Knaster, Google Developers Blog Editor
This post is abridged and cross-posted from the
YouTube API Blog
.
Adding a high-quality video experience to your Android application just got a whole lot easier. Starting today, you can embed and play YouTube videos in your app using the new
YouTube Android Player API
.
The API, which was
pre-announced
at Google I/O 2012, offers these benefits:
High-quality video playback supported on Android 2.2 (Froyo) or newer.
Easy integration
with your Android application (no
WebView
required).
Fullscreen
and orientation change support.
Closed captions
display.
Support for YouTube ads.
Programmatic access, similar to existing
Player APIs
, to most aspects of the
YouTube video playback experience
.
Integration with the Android YouTube app using a standard set of YouTube
Intents
.
We are launching the API as
experimental
, although we do not expect major interface changes going forward.
The only limit now is your imagination (and
ToS
)
These
instructions
explain how to include the API client library in your Android application. The library is supported on Android devices running version
4.2.16
or newer of the Android YouTube app. By including the library in your project, you can create rich video playback experiences through the ability to control and customize the video player.
Flipboard
, shown below, is a good example. See the
full post
for more cool app examples.

New mod_pagespeed: cache advances, progressive JPEGs
Wednesday, December 19, 2012
Bharath
Jan-Willem
Joshua
By Joshua Marantz, Jan-Willem Maessen, and Bharath Bhushan, PageSpeed Team
When mod_pagespeed launched in November 2010, one of its benefits was to help websites better
exploit browser caching
by signing URLs with the resource content hash. This improves the user experience coming back to the same site, and navigating within a site.
In mod_pagespeed 1.2 we have released two new features that improve the caching experience for users coming to a site for the first time:
canonicalize_javascript_libraries
and
insert_dns_prefetch
. For additional speedups, converting jpegs to progressive format has been added to the Core Filter Set, and the scope of optimization has been extended to include resources served by external servers, even if they are not running mod_pagespeed.
Your web page loads faster when JQuery is preloaded in users' browser
Numerous web sites use common JavaScript libraries such as jQuery and jQuery UI. But when one library is stored on many sites, browsers end up re-downloading that library for each new site – a waste of time and bandwidth. The new
canonicalize_javascript_libraries
filter in mod_pagespeed finds such libraries on your site and replaces them with links to the equivalent libraries on
ajax.googleapis.com
. With the optimization, a browser will notice that your site is requesting the library from the same shared library provider as a previous site it visited, and will use the copy in its cache.
It’s possible to do this by hand, but there are a number of reasons why you might prefer to automate the process. Most important is that you may be using third-party code on your web sites that includes some of these libraries. Using
canonicalize_javascript_libraries
lets you replace these with hosted versions without having to touch third-party code. It also lets you use local, un-minified JavaScript source code for these libraries while you are debugging your site, and then transition automatically to using minified hosted code when you deploy. The filter spots external libraries using a hash signature; we’ve added a new configuration file, pagespeed_libraries.conf, that stores these signatures, so that you can upgrade the signature configuration without disrupting the rest of your apache installation.
Resolving DNS entries early for critical assets saves hundreds of milliseconds
DNS resolution time varies from <1ms for locally cached results, to hundreds of milliseconds due to the cascading nature of DNS. This can contribute significantly to total page load time. Below is a WebPagetest waterfall showing how DNS lookup time can affect page load time.
The new
insert_dns_prefetch
filter inserts
<link rel="dns-prefetch">
tags to allow the browser to pre-resolve DNS for resources on the page. The waterfall below shows the improvement after inserting the hints.
<link rel="dns-prefetch">
is supported on
Chrome
,
Firefox
and
Internet Explorer
.
Improved performance by optimizing external resources and progressive JPEG
In addition to these new capabilities, mod_pagespeed 1.2 can
proxy and optimize resources from trusted domains
. This feature enables you to optimize resources even from servers that don't run mod_pagespeed. Beyond compressing and cache-extending such resources, this can improve performance of sites running SPDY where the best practices for performance are to serve all resources from the same domain (see
mod_spdy
).
Further,
convert_jpeg_to_progressive
is now a ‘core’ filter. Large JPEG images are now transcoded to progressive. This both improves the browser experience and makes such files smaller.
To see more details about the release, check out the
release notes
and
mod_pagespeed download
page.
Joshua Marantz
runs Google’s PageSpeed team in Cambridge, MA, which is dedicated to making the web faster for everyone. Josh has been working on making software run fast for several decades, at Google and before that on accelerated chip simulation.
Jan Maessen wrote the earliest version of the image and JavaScript filters in mod_pagespeed and has been with the team ever since. Before joining Google, he was a co-designer and library implementer for the Fortress programming language.
Bharath Bhushan works on making website performance better. He has a Masters in CS from IIT Madras, India.

Putting Zürich before Århus
Wednesday, December 19, 2012
By Mark Davis, International Software Architect
Until now, it has been very difficult for web application designers to do something as simple as sort names correctly according to the user's language. And it matters: English readers wouldn’t expect Århus to sort below Zürich, but Danish speakers would.
Because linguistic sorting requires a sophisticated algorithm and lots of data, it was impractical to do this natively in JavaScript. Until now, the only full solution for sorting on the client side was to generate on a server a sortKey for every string that needed to be sorted, and send the sortkeys — base64-encoded — down to the client along with the strings. Pretty ugly! And what’s doubly frustrating is that the underlying operating systems have all been able to handle this, whether through
International Components for Unicode (ICU)
or Windows APIs.
The new internationalization specification for ECMAScript (the “official” name for JavaScript) changes this picture. It is already in the production version of Chrome, and is on track for other major browsers.
Linguistic sorting is not the only benefit—not only will users be able to see names sorted correctly, but also correct numeric values (“1,234.56” in English, but “1.234,56” in German), dates (“March 10, 2012” vs “10. März 2012”), and so on. While the results might not be precisely the same in every browser, they should be appropriate to the language, and are returned using a uniform API.
On any enabled browser — in its supported languages — web application developers can:
compare strings correctly:
choosing whether or not to ignore accents, case differences, etc.
format numbers correctly:
choosing decimal places, currencies, whether to use thousands-separator, etc.
format dates and times correctly:
choosing decimal places, numeric vs named months, etc.
match locales:
comparing the user’s desired locales (say Arabic and French) against the supported locales (say French, German, and English), to get the best match.
The API also allows for linguistic support in offline web applications, which wasn’t practical before. It builds on the industry standards
BCP47
(for identifying languages and locales) and
LDML
(part of the
Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) project
). For the gory details of the spec, see
ECMA-402: ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification
(just approved by the Ecma General Assembly).

The simpler, yet more powerful new YouTube Data API
Tuesday, December 18, 2012
Pepijn
Vlad
Raul
By Raul Furnică, Tech Lead; Vladimir Vuskovic, Product Manager; and Pepijn Crouzen, Software Engineer, YouTube API Team
This post is abridged and cross-posted from the
YouTube API Blog
.
Since its initial
launch
in 2007, the YouTube Data API has become one of Google’s most popular APIs by request volume, thanks to the
awesome apps
from developers like you. To help you make better integrated video experiences, you can now use the YouTube API
version 3.0
. The new API is easy to use thanks to rich client library support, improved tooling, reference documentation and integration with Google’s common API infrastructure. Version 3.0 only returns what you ask for and uses JSON rather than XML encoding for greater efficiency. The API introduces new core functionality including
Freebase
integration via topics, and universal search. If you develop social media management apps, you’ll love channel bulletin post and full subscriber list management, also new in this release. Version 3.0 of the API constitutes the API's biggest overhaul to date and we’re eager for you to
try it today
!
New functionality: Topics, universal search, and audience engagement support
Have you ever tried to search for YouTube videos only to find out that keyword search can produce ambiguous results? With the new Topics API, thanks to the power of
Freebase
, you can find exactly what you’re looking for by specifying Freebase topic IDs rather than search keywords.
For example, if you’re reading this post from outside of the US and you would like to search for content related to football,
/m/02vx4
is probably the topic ID you're after. The API's
universal search
feature lets you retrieve channels, playlists and videos matching the topic with just one request like
this one
. Find out more in our Topics API Guide.
Version 3.0 introduces better tools to engage and interact with your YouTube audience. Social media management apps can now help content creators communicate with their
channel subscribers
using bulletin
posts
.

Fridaygram: Lady Ada Lovelace, evolving limbs, ancient labyrinth
Friday, December 14, 2012
By Scott Knaster,
Google Developers Blog
Editor
This week we celebrated the 197th birthday of computing pioneer
Lady Ada Lovelace
with a nifty
Google Doodle
. Among other accomplishments, Ada is credited with publishing the
world's first algorithm
for use with
Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine
.
Coincidentally, also this week we launched the latest episodes in our
Women Techmakers
series on
Google Developers Live
. We're highlighting women who are making big social impacts through their innovations in tech. Please check it out.
In other areas of science this week, researchers in Spain used zebra fish to test an idea about
limbs evolving from fins
. The scientists ramped up the activity of a particular gene, which caused the fish to produce rudimentary limbs instead of fins. This might be an evolutionary clue about where our own arms and legs came from.
Finally, it looks like the mystery of line drawings in the Peruvian desert has been solved, according to Clive Ruggles, who is an archaeoastronomer (which might be the coolest job title ever) and archaeologist Nicholas Saunders.
Ruggles says the drawings are a labyrinth
, and "This labyrinth was meant to be walked, not seen". Well said, and in that spirit, we hope you get out and take a walk of your own this weekend, even if you don’t have an awesome ancient labyrinth nearby.
Each Friday
on this blog we skip our usual developer topics and offer interesting (we hope) stuff that’s not directly related to writing code.

Editor
This week
Google Giving
launched the
Global Impact Awards
, to recognize and reward achievements that use technology to improve people’s lives. The awards go to groups that have already accomplished dramatic results and provide continued funding so they can keep changing the world by providing clean water, protecting endangered species, and doing other wonderful things.
If you want to find out more about the Global Impact Awards, visit
the home page
, or learn about the other
grant programs of Google Giving
.
Meanwhile, near the moon, scientists have published the
first mapping images
from the tandem spacecraft
Ebb and Flow
, which reached lunar orbit about a year ago. This program, called GRAIL (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory), uses the two spacecraft to study lunar features in great detail, providing unprecedented information about Earth’s moon. So far, the data shows craters, peaks, and volcanic formations, but no huge surprises like giant alien transformer robots.
Speaking of transformer robots,
here’s one you can enjoy on video
. Sure, it’s neither giant nor alien, but it’s still very cool, don’t you think? Have a great weekend!
On Fridays we depart from our usual developer topics and post a
Fridaygram
, which features interesting nerdy stuff for fun and knowledge. This week we acknowledge Walt Disney’s eleventy-first birthday, and the happy news that his creation
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit
will
finally get a voice
after 85 years of silence.
Google HackFair in South Korea
Wednesday, December 5, 2012
By Soonson Kwon, Developer Relations Program Manager
For developers and engineers, the best way to learn something is to get your hands dirty and try making something. That is why Google hosts many hackathons around the world. Last November 17 and 18, we had a bigger experiment at Gangnam (yes, this is the very Gangnam in
Gangnam Style
!) in Seoul, South Korea which expanded a 1-2 day hackathon into a much longer one which we called Google HackFair.
The idea was to give developers enough time (2 months) to develop something bigger and provide a nice chance to showcase their projects. 153 developers submitted 92 projects, and 40 projects were chosen from among them and displayed. Developers used many different technologies, including Android, Chrome, App Engine, and HTML5, and they completed creative and interesting projects:
a remote controlled car guided by Android, a serial terminal for Chrome, a braille printer using Go, and many more
!
Besides the exhibition, we also prepared a mini-conference and GDG (Google Developers Group) booth where Googlers and community developers gave 27 sessions in total.
More than 1000 people attended and enjoyed the Google HackFair. Although the event is finished, developers continue updating and polishing their projects. It was a great time indeed.
If you are interested in details for the projects including full demos or source code, please check

Fridaygram: #freeandopen Internet, new form of matter, lava flowing
Friday, November 30, 2012
By Scott Knaster,
Google Developers Blog
Editor
This week we launched a campaign to keep the Internet
#freeandopen
, ahead of a meeting of government agencies next week that could increase censorship and regulation of the Internet. We believe that Internet policies should be discussed and decided by the people who use it, not just governments. You can go to the site to
learn more
and find out
what you can do
. You can also watch Google Developers Live next
Tue.
,
Wed.
, and
Thu.
for live Hangouts on this topic. Your opinion matters!
Speaking of matter, researchers are eyeing data from the
Large Hadron Collider
for evidence of a
new form of matter
that has been theorized to exist but never seen. The new matter is a kind of
gluon
called
color-glass condensate
. Scientists noted that some wacky particles unexpectedly showed
quantum entanglement
when they traveled in the same direction after collisions. A new state of matter is a possible explanation.
Finally, take a look at this
video of erupting lava from the Kilauea Volcano
flowing into the ocean. You can also see a
webcam
view of the caldera, including some brave people watching from a safe distance. Maybe they’ll wave!
Each Friday
on this blog we depart from the usual developer topics and present fun and interesting stuff that’s not necessarily related to writing code. Sometimes we even veer into an important topic, like the #freeandopen program mentioned in this post.

a collection of improvements across Google Cloud Platform including 36 new Compute Engine instances, Durable Reduced Availability (DRA) storage, Object Versioning, and European datacenter support. We also announced that we are reducing the price of standard Google Cloud Storage by over 20%.
We are committed to delivering the best value in the marketplace to businesses and developers looking to operate in the cloud. That’s why today we are reducing the price of Google Cloud Storage by an additional 10%, resulting in a total price reduction of over 30%. This price reduction applies to all Cloud Storage regions and the new DRA Storage.

Launching WordPress into the Google cloud
Wednesday, November 28, 2012
By Artem Livshits, CEO of
OblakSoft
This guest post was written by Artem Livshits, CEO of
OblakSoft
, which makes the ClouSE MySQL storage engine for cloud development. In this post, Artem describes his experience using Google Cloud Storage to store and serve a WordPress blog.
WordPress
is popular blogging software used by over 60 million people. If you have a WordPress blog, you want to ensure that your server load is manageable and that your load times are fast. You also want your data to be protected in case your server fails. With that in mind, we at OblakSoft created the Cloud Storage Engine for MySQL (ClouSE). It stores all your WordPress data on
Google Cloud Storage
, taking the load off your server to improve reliability and speed, and to reduce hosting costs.
We’ve been very impressed with the performance of Google Cloud Storage. Because it’s built on Google’s infrastructure, storage objects are cached within Google’s global network and distributed globally without the need for a Content Distribution Network (CDN). This ensures content is delivered with the best possible performance.
Here is a high-level architectural diagram of a WordPress-powered website that uses Google Cloud Storage to store and serve content:
The website’s content management is done through WordPress, which uses a MySQL server to store the website’s data. It uses the
WP2Cloud
WordPress plugin we created to upload pictures (and other media files) to Google Cloud Storage. ClouSE makes the web server stateless by storing all data in Google Cloud Storage using the
Google Cloud Storage API
. Web pages (lightweight HTML) are served by WordPress, while media files are served by Google Cloud Storage directly.
WordPress is one example of a MySQL-based application that can take full advantage of Google Cloud Storage to:
Keep the data highly available and highly durable.
Serve media files in a highly scalable fashion.
Distribute media files across the globe for fast access.
This solution works with any hosting provider, so our users can keep their current hosting arrangement, and move their data to Google Cloud Storage using WP2Cloud and ClouSE. Users who are limited preview customers of Google Compute Engine can get started immediately using a fully configured WordPress image that we created.
We’re very excited about the potential of the Google Cloud Platform to power dynamic web server applications.
Launch your own WordPress site in the cloud
today - it’s easy and there’s minimal setup. We found it easy to make ClouSe work with Google Cloud Storage, and you can see how you can
integrate Google Cloud Storage
into your app as well.
Artem Livshits is the Founder, CEO and software architect at OblakSoft, a company focusing on technologies that simplify adoption of cloud computing. Previously Artem led the development of several server products from inception to maturity during his 12 years at Microsoft, including the source control system managing most of the Microsoft code base.

Google Cloud Platform: new features, lower prices, extending European datacenters
Monday, November 26, 2012
By Jessie Jiang, Product Management Director
(Cross-posted on the
Official Google Enterprise Blog
.)
We're constantly making updates to our Google Cloud Platform products—Google App Engine, Cloud Storage, Big Query, Compute Engine and others—based on user feedback and to improve the overall experience. For example, two weeks ago we
introduced
a major update to Google Cloud SQL providing faster performance, larger databases (100GB), an EU zone, and a
no-cost trial
. But, we know there is more to do. Today, we’re continuing to improve the platform with new storage and compute capabilities, significantly lower prices, and more European Datacenter support.
Lower storage prices and new Durable Reduced Availability (DRA) Storage
Updated 3:23 PM to provide more details about DRA.
To give you more flexibility in your storage options and prices, we’re
reducing the price of standard Google Cloud Storage by over 20%
and introducing a limited preview of
Durable Reduced Availability
(DRA) storage. DRA storage lowers prices by reducing some data availability, while maintaining the same latency performance and durability as standard Google Cloud Storage. This makes it a great option for batch compute jobs that can easily be rescheduled or for data backup where quick access to your data is important. DRA achieves cost savings by keeping fewer redundant replicas of data. Unlike other reduced redundancy cloud storage offerings, DRA is implemented in a manner that maintains data durability so you don't have to worry about losing your data in the cloud.
And, to automatically keep a history of old versions of your data, we’re introducing
Object Versioning
. You can also use it to help protect against deleting or overwriting your data by mistake or due to an application error.
More European Datacenter support
We are continuing to roll out our
European Datacenter support
. Now, customers using Google App Engine, Google Cloud Storage, Google Cloud SQL and (soon) Google Compute Engine can deploy their applications, data and virtual machines to European Datacenters. This helps bring your solutions even closer to your customers for faster performance and enables international redundancy.
36 New Compute Engine instance types and overall reduced prices
Earlier this year we
introduced
a Limited Preview of Google Compute Engine with four standard instance types. Today, we are announcing
36 additional instance types
and are
reducing the price of our original 4 standard instances
by about 5% for those currently in our preview. In the coming weeks, the following will be available:
High Memory Instance
- High performance instances tailored for applications that demand large amounts of memory.
High CPU Instance
- Reduced cost option when applications don’t require as much memory.
Diskless Configurations
- Lower cost options for applications that do not require ephemeral disk and can exclusively utilize persistent disk.
We are also introducing
Persistent Disk Snapshotting
which makes it simple to instantly create a backup of your disk, move it around Google datacenters, and use the snapshot to start up a new VM.
We want to thank you, the community of developers and businesses who are pushing the platform into new areas and building innovative applications. We look forward to seeing where you take it next. Find out more about the new
Cloud Storage pricing
and
Compute Engine instances

Fridaygram: learning English, counting legs, playing games
Friday, November 16, 2012
By Scott Knaster,
Google Developers Blog
Editor
Google Developers Live
(GDL) is designed to bring you great technical content, live as it happens and archived for whenever you need it. We want GDL to teach you about our tools and platforms, but
Eiji Kitamura
, a Google Developer Advocate in Tokyo, had another idea: use the captions on GDL videos as a tool for picking up English while learning about technology. As Eiji says, “Learning English and technology at the same time is a killer feature, because it is time efficient, practical, and enjoyable”.
For the best translation, make sure
English
is selected (shown circled in red).
For the best translation, click the CC button and make sure
English
is selected (shown circled in red in the image above), and not
English (transcribed)
. The
English
translations are usually available about a week after each event.
Eiji posted about this idea on the
Google Developer Relations Japan Blog
, and it proved to be very popular, so several other Googlers around the world picked up the thread and created their own versions of the post, translated into
Korean
,
Spanish
, and
Hebrew
, with more translated posts in the works. If you’re a developer learning English while studying a new technology, now you can absorb both at the same time.
Switching our focus to nature, we’ve often wondered: how many legs are enough? 2? 4? 100? The answer turns out to be 562 to 750, which is the number of legs you’ll find on
llacme plenipes
, a rare millepede species. This creature was long thought to be extinct, but according to a recent journal was
rediscovered
in 2006 in a densely foggy area of central California. (Note: humans thought the species was extinct, but
llacme plenipes
itself was not fooled.)
Finally, if you need some new gaming fun this weekend, check out
Ingress
, a
game
that takes place online and in the physical world. Just be sure to stop playing and come back to your family at some point.
On
Fridays
we depart from our usual fare of new tools and events, and instead tell you about general cool stuff you might find interesting. This week we’re wondering: are you disappointed to learn that millipedes don’t really have 1000 legs?
Women Techmakers: starting the conversation
Thursday, November 15, 2012
By Amanda Surya, Manager of YouTube and Commerce Developer Relations
Google strongly supports
diversity and inclusion
in all our communities, including users, employees, and developers. In that spirit, last week we launched
Women Techmakers
(WTM) on
Google Developers Live
, bringing visibility to talented women leaders in technology industries.
The inaugural week of WTM programming told the stories of 6 prominent women in the tech industry and produced some enlightening conversations. From impromptu in-house product testing, to how to start a company, to crafting that perfect startup pitch, to visualizing the presidential election in a new way, to manipulating petabytes of data, our first class of women techmakers taught us new things technically and professionally.
We hope WTM inspires more women to add their expertise and creativity to the tech community. As Google+ community member
Meghan Peters
posted
, “This is wonderful. What a great series – and very inspiring to see the thread speak up about so many more amazing women! It's this kind of support from each other that can really help push more women to the top.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. And we’re only getting started. Read on for video highlights and what’s next for WTM.
Video Highlights
Women Techmakers with JESS3
Visualizing data in new and compelling ways. Check out a visual walkthrough of the 2012 Presidential Election infographics from JESS3.

Scaling automatic web optimization with mod_pagespeed and memcached
Monday, November 12, 2012
By Jud Porter, Software Engineer, PageSpeed Team
Making your website fast is crucial to creating a great user experience – but doing so can be complicated, with many factors to consider. That’s why we created
mod_pagespeed
, an open-source
Apache
module designed to optimize your web pages automatically and easily. We recently introduced our milestone
1.0 release
, and today, we’re following it up with the release of mod_pagespeed 1.1.23.1 to our beta channel.
With this release we've reduced server load time and improved utilization for large, multi-server environments. We accomplished this by adding support for memcached (a popular, scalable cache), and improving logging and statistics reporting. With
memcached
, multiple Apache servers share and fetch the same resources optimized by mod_pagespeed. Logging and reporting have been improved to make it easier to keep track of resource consumption and optimization effectiveness across multiple sites hosted by a single Apache installation. These new features make mod_pagespeed even better for high-traffic sites and network providers hosting many individual websites on their infrastructure.
We’ve also added a number of other new features and optimizations including:
Improved CSS optimization. CSS media queries are now supported, and the new
fallback_rewrite_css_urls
filter allows partial optimization of CSS containing unsupported or proprietary extensions.
The default set of optimizers now includes the
flatten_css_imports
filter, improving out-of-the-box performance.
Improved
mod_spdy
interaction with support for custom mod_pagespeed configuration and filters for SPDY enabled clients. This makes it easier to deploy
SPDY
on your site, which can
significantly decrease page load times
.
Check out the
release notes
for all the new features and improvements. For more information about mod_pagespeed, please see our
documentation
, and if you have any questions or issues let us know on our
issue tracker
or
discussion group
.

is a software engineer working on mod_pagespeed, an Apache module designed to automatically make websites faster. In his free time he enjoys experimenting with cocktails, brushing up on his foosball game, and discovering obscure music.

Fridaygram: Chrome Jams, distant stars, building footprints
Friday, November 9, 2012
By Scott Knaster,
Google Developers Blog
Editor
Hey, wanna start a band? A new
Chrome Experiment
,
JAM with Chrome
, lets you play music in a web app and jam with others online in real time. You get to pick from 19 different instruments, including drums, guitars, and keyboards. Once you get really good, you can use shortcuts on your (computer) keyboard to play your instrument.
When you’ve had enough fun making music with your friends, you can explore how JAM with Chrome works. Take a look at the
tools and technologies
that were used to make this app, and for details, read the
case study
. Then you can decide whether you want to build the next great web app or become a rock star instead.
Speaking of stars, scientists have astonishingly figured out how to
learn about light from every star that ever existed
. Researchers used the orbiting
Fermi Large Area Telescope
to look at distant galaxies and measure photons from various places around the universe. This data goes back to the formation of the first stars more than 13 billion years ago.
Finally, back on our own planet, you might have noticed that Google Maps recently
added more building footprints
to map displays. In case you didn’t count them, over 25 million new building footprints have been added to both desktop and mobile versions of Google Maps. Maybe you’ll see the new footprints while exploring your favorite city this weekend.
On Fridays we detour slightly from our usual posts and publish a
Fridaygram
, a fun compilation of nerdy stuff to amuse you (and us). And how cool is it that we have orbiting telescopes?
