Discovered this accidentally a few days back, and it’s transformed my life :)
Set eggs to boil. “OK Google, set a timer for 10 minutes”
Fill cafetière. “OK Google, set a timer for 3 mins 30 seconds”
Partner calls to pick up dinner. “OK Google, set a timer for 5 mins”. Google and I run for life in 30 seconds.
On Sunday, 12th Jan 2013, a Sherlock episode airs hinting at the key antagonist wearing a Google Glass like device, except it’s not in his glasses, but in his eye or in his contact lenses.
4 days later, Google publicly announces its Smart Contact Lenses project.
Coincidence?
Just made an interesting discovery. Remember that circling dot that you see when a video is loading on Youtube? You can now play snake with it. All you have to do is use the arrow keys on your keyboard and the circling dot will start moving in a line like snake with another dot somewhere that the snake has to ‘eat’.
Nice, little, quirky discovery :D
It’s 5:30 AM and I’m still awake. Spent half the night reading on greader and, just as sleep started to envelope me, got an invite to Google+ in my mailbox. For the last hour or so been creating my profile and testing out the features.
Like it so far, perhaps this will become my alternative to Facebook (quit 2.5 yrs back) and Twitter (been inactive for almost 2 months now).
Thanks Harry prah!
P.S.: Missing my Nexus One even more, what with the G+ app on android.
