Google April Fools' Day 2010

It's not a surprise for anyone that Google celebrates April Fools' Day. Since 2008, Google's offices outside of US have their own pranks.

Google Japan developed a special version of Google Voice Search for animals. Unfortunately, Google Translate is not very helpful:

"For this animal, the dog still, cats, pigeons are just the future, cows and horses, hamsters, frogs, and plans to expand into. Voice Search a variety of potential animal, you try all means, exchange'd appreciate help with animals. Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful to the people around the world. You are also feeling the animal to be able to access, will continue to continue research, and Nakajima are saying."



There's also Google Translate for Animals, a new Android application that "allows you to record animals sounds and have the sounds analyzed and translated by Google Translate into any of the 52 supported languages".


Google Australia is now able to "Optimise for Colloquial Cultural Articulation (OCCA) - which means our products can now be tailored specifically for the typical Strayan user. (...) OCCA greatly reduces the latency between a user's thought and ability to pinpoint information; a boon for local users who'd have Buckleys makin' sense of American English."


Google Street View is now available in 3D, but you need to click on an icon to go 3D:


Google decided to change its name to Topeka, the US city that intends to change its name to Google.


Google's search results pages use some interesting units of measurements to estimate how long it took Google to obtain the results: Plunk, gigawatts, warp, centibeats, skidoo, femtogalactic years, velocity of an unladen swallow.



YouTube has a new text-only mode: TEXTp. "It's great news that there are 24 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute, we support 1080p and HD uploads are rising quickly, but that's also meant increasing bandwidth costs cutting into our bottom line. (...) TEXTp is the result of months of intense transcoding efforts by our engineers, who toiled for weeks to ensure that a large chunk of videos on the platform could be reduced to their most basic elements. By replacing the images in the video with a series of letters and numbers, the videos are far less taxing on our system -- and have the added benefit of promoting literacy!"

You can try the new mode by appending &textp=fool to YouTube URLs (like this).



Google Docs lets you store ANYTHING. "Ever wish you could CTRL+F your keys? Store your keys and other objects you commonly lose with Google and you'll never have to worry about finding them again. We're testing a new mail courier network integrated with our Street View fleet. We'll show up within 3 hours to pick up anything you choose to store in Google Docs, guaranteed. At $0.10 per kg, you can store a grand piano for the price of lunch."

Google Voice added a standard voicemail mode.
Standard Voicemail Mode brings your voicemail back to something reminiscent of 1997, with features like:

* Automatic voicemail deletion: messages will be deleted automatically after 14 days
* Numeric keypad access: access to voicemail will only be available via your phone
* Beeper interoperability: your beeper will be paged every time a voicemail is left
* Message maximums: store a maximum of 10 messages at any given time
* Numeric page: people leaving you voicemails will be given the option to send a numeric page

Google Mobile Search found a way to return better results for queries like "where am I". Try this query on your mobile phone and you'll find a lot of interesting results:



Gmail's login page no longer uses vowels and greets users with a short message: "Wlcm t Gml".

Google Feedback Extension

Google developed an extension for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer that lets you send feedback about Google services. For now, the extension can only be used if you get an invitation from Google and it's limited to Gmail.

Google Feedback lets you highlight the parts of the page corresponding to your feedback, hide personal information, describe the issue and send your feedback. The extension is useful because you can send Google an annotated screenshot that illustrates your problem without using an image editing software.




To get an invitation, go to this page and enter your Gmail address.

Random Hangover Sequel

How the hell can they top the first one?...



Does it even make sense to have another bachelor party...

(from TotalFilm)
Hangover sequel cast confirmed
Despite reports that the original triumvirate of Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis were hesitant to return for a Hangover 2, all three have now signed on board for the comedy sequel. Director Todd Phillips had been assuring us of this all along, but some of the stars seemed non-plussed at the idea in interviews. In a sign of his love for the original flick, Bradley Cooper even backed out of McG’s rom-com This Means War because it clashed with the Hangover sequel’s proposed July shooting date. Each of the actors will earn a pay cheque of $5m, which kicks dirt in the eyes of their original pay day of just $1m.

Weigh In Wednesday

I'm pretty pleased with this week...down 2 pounds from last week. I do, however, need to kick up my mileage! I only went 9.28 miles this week. If I want to hit my goal before swimsuit weather I'll need to lose 2 pounds every week for the next 9 weeks which would bring me to June 2nd...it'll be tough but I think I can do it!

On another note, yesterday was sheer amazingness. I had the day off! My first day off! Here's how I spent it:

I slept in until 9:00am, which was amazing on it's own. Then I got up and enjoyed an extremely delicious and extremely healthy breakfast with my puppy. I say with my puppy because she literally sits at the table and watches me eat.
I had a bowl of Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal with Silk Light Soy Milk, 3 slices of Jennie-O Extra Lean Turkey Bacon and a Banana! So yummy, only 340 calories and kept me full for a long time. 

Then we headed over to Coffee Buzz to visit Jason and walk the Cedar Lake Trail, which was great! We went 4.26 miles! After our walk I headed straight to LA Fitness for my personal training session. Since I had just walked over 4 miles I kindly asked if we could focus on arms & abs thinking it would be an easier session...WRONG! He kicked my ass! It felt great but boy was it hard! My arms felt like jelly the rest of the day. 

After my workouts, I headed home to shower and watch the most recent episode of Project Runway which has been burning a hole in my DVR since last Thursday. I was sad to see Anthony go, but it was time. 

Then I headed to Sa Bel SalonSpa in Uptown to take advantage of a free hair cut I had.  I wasn't very impressed with the decor or atmosphere of the salon but Sara gave me an awesome haircut and the best blow out I've ever had! And, let's face it, the price was right! While in Uptown I couldn't resist heading over to Heartbreaker (one of my favorite stores). I found a couple of plain black shirts that I can wear to work, a cute new top and some cute black jean style leggings, which I'll probably rock to the Chelsea Handler show this weekend. AND, the most exciting part...I found an awesome pair of new sunglasses! I am notorious for losing my sunglasses and I am also very picky about  my sunglasses, which often poses a major problem for me: I'm constantly looking for some and can never find ones I like. Well I found some great ones, and the best part...? THEY WERE $5.00! 

Next, I had a couple of errands to run...a return at Target, a stop at Ulta for some make-up and a run to Papyrus for some much needed "Thank You" cards. I had some time to kill at the Galleria and "accidentally" found myself perusing the Coach store and fell madly in love with this bag: 
 
Let me just tell you that this picture does not do it justice! Now if I could just find a way to scrounge up an extra $600 this bad boy will be mine! 

To end the night I met these two:
Christina & Libby, my two best friends in the whole wide world. Every month or so we meet for dinner at our favorite restaurant Big Bowl. We don't even have to look at the menu, we all get the same thing and it's the same every time. We get the "Create Your Own Stir-fry bar!" It's so yummy, you choose from a list of sauces and meet choices then like a salad bar go up and choose your own veggies! This time I got grilled chicken instead of the breaded sesame chicken, light on the cooking oil and no rice to cut down on those calories! It was still just as delicious and besides the sauce a very healthy option. As always, we had a complete blast. 

I must say I couldn't have asked for a better day off. Now back to the grind....


18.6 pounds to go

Re-watched Best in Show...



Can't help but crack up every time I see these two scenes...



(from Wiki)
Best in Show is a 2000 mockumentary that follows five entrants in a prestigious dog show. The film focuses on the slightly surreal interactions among the various owners and handlers as they travel to the show and compete. Much of the dialogue was improvised.

Gmail Adds Support for OAuth Authentication

Google Code blog announced that Gmail started to support OAuth authentication for IMAP and SMTP. What this means is that developers will be able to create applications that use Gmail data without requiring to enter your password.

"In addition to making it easier for users to export their data, we also enable them to authorize third party (non-Google developed) applications and websites to access their data at Google. While it is possible for a user to authorize this access by disclosing their Google Account password to the third party app, it is more secure for the app developer to use the industry standard protocol called OAuth which enables the user to give their consent for specific access without sharing their password," explains Google.

Gmail Drive is a popular application that uses your Gmail account to store files. After installing the application, it asks your username and password to send data to your Gmail account. If you don't trust the application, it's not a good idea to enter the password of your Google account.


When applications like Gmail Drive switch to OAuth authentication, you'll no longer have to enter your credentials. Instead, the application will open a Google web page and you'll only have to authorize the request.

An example of application that already uses OAuth authentication is SmartPush, an iPhone app that lets you filter email notifications.

Google Search Shows IMDb Ratings

Here's a feature I've been expecting ever since Google started to test rich snippets for pages that include reviews: showing movie ratings in IMDb's snippets.

Now you can see the ratings without having to click on the search results, which is useful if you browse the web using a mobile phone or you want to check the ratings for a lot of movies.


"Google tries to present users with the most useful and informative search results. The more information a search result snippet can provide, the easier it is for users to decide whether that page is relevant to their search. With rich snippets, webmasters with sites containing structured content—for example, review sites or business listings—can label their content to make it clear that each labeled piece of text represents a certain type of data: for example, a restaurant name, an address, or a rating," explains Google.

To quickly see the IMDb ratings for a list of movies, you can start with an empty Google Square, add the column "IMDb rating" and start entering movie titles.

Google Chrome to Bundle Plug-ins for Flash and PDF

CNet reports that "Google is planning to bundle its Chrome browser and/or operating system with Adobe Systems' Flash in a deeper partnership" that is expected to be announced today.

The latest updates to Chromium, Google's open-source browser, show that Chrome will use internal plug-ins for Flash and PDF, which are likely to be bundled with the browser. Chrome has implemented some NPAPI extensions for "2D, 3D, and mouse/keyboard events" using Mozilla Pepper, a platform-independent framework for browser plug-ins. There are already switches for enabling the internal PDF and Flash plug-ins, but they don't work yet.

"Over the past few months a number of us have also been discussing some of the issues facing NPAPI as a platform independent browser plugin framework. First, we feel there are some changes needed to NPAPI to keep up with recent developments in browser technology, such as out of process plugin execution. Second, while NPAPI provides an extensive framework for writing plugins, many end up relying on operating system or browser platform specific features. This is especially true of windowed plugins that implement 2D or 3D graphics, where almost the entirety of the plugin may consist of operating system specific graphics or event APIs," explains Mozilla's wiki page.

Chrome OS could take advantage of the new plug-ins because users no longer have to install them and they'll be more stable.

In other news, a recent Chromium build added a new internal page (chrome://plugins) that lets you disable individual plug-ins.



Update: Chromium's blog has more information. Google says it has "begun collaborating with Adobe to improve the Flash Player experience in Google Chrome. Today, we're making available an initial integration of Flash Player with Chrome in the developer channel. When users download Chrome, they will also receive the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. Users will automatically receive updates related to Flash Player using Google Chrome’s auto-update mechanism."

To use the built-in Flash plug-in in the latest dev build, you need to edit Chrome's shortcut and add a flag: --enable-internal-flash to the target value. When you open Google Chrome, you're prompted to accept the license agreement:


Google Chrome includes Adobe Flash 10.1.51.95, a beta version of a runtime that will work on "a broad range of mobile devices, including smartphones, netbooks, smartbooks and other Internet-connected devices".

If you don't like Flash, there are many ways to disable it in Google Chrome: there's a new option that lets you disable individual plug-ins and you can use extensions like FlashBlock.

Google's goal is to improve the plug-in model and to make it "as fast, stable, and secure as the browser's HTML and JavaScript engines". That's a good news, even if you're not a fan of Flash or the Adobe PDF plug-in.
