Posted by Robby Stein, Associate Product Marketing ManagerI recently discovered some little-known ways to use your Gmail address that can give you greater control over your inbox and save you some time and headache. When you choose a Gmail address, you actually get more than just "yourusername@gmail.com." Here are two different ways you can modify your Gmail address and still get your mail: Append a plus ("+") sign and any combination of words or numbers ...

Have you ever wanted to share something that you were reading, but you didn't want to go through the hassle of subscribing to a whole feed for a single interesting article? And what about sharing content from sites with no feeds? There you are, reading along, and you think to yourself, "If only everything on the web had a 'Share' button like in Google Reader!"

I seriously was wishing for this feature just yesterday when I saw a KUTV news report that was done but when I came to Reader to share it I realized I only had a KSL feed and I was about to subscribe to a KUTV feed when I got distracted.

This is such a great way to keep track of new, websites, tips and tweaks that you want to keep on hand, but don't neccesarily want to bookmark! Not only does it make it easy to share with friends, but you can easily keep track of those great articles you don't have time to read!

This is interesting. Looks like another attempt of Google's to completely unify all their various social aspects.
The problem I'm having with Google currently isn't the level of quality their services provide. It's the complete lack of design unification their products show. Their stuff may be simplistic-looking, but it's almost all ugly. That's a problem for me.

Adam W. said:
Devlin makes a good point. Why keep bookmarks in delicious or elsewhere if I can share them and store them all in Reader. I can still do private and public sharing. I can search. AND its one less tool... we'll see.

After years of testing, Gmail has finally added a very useful security feature: tracking open sessions. If you log in to Gmail from more than one computer and you forget to sign out, you'll be able to see the list of locations where your account can still be accessed. Until now, the only solution when you forgot to log out from Gmail after using a public computer was to change your password. Otherwise, anyone could ...

Posted by Niniane Wang, Engineering ManagerA while ago, I looked around the social web and wished that it could be less static. Sure, you can leave a comment on a blog or write a text blurb on your social networking profile. But what if you want to express yourself in a more fun way, with 3D graphics and real-time avatar interactions? I started asking this question as a 20% project, and I'm excited to announce ...

So winning a contest for alphaing the room creation features of this product is what got me the iPhone. I have to say that it's interesting but not that interesting. The main difference in a years worth of work is that now it's not buggy which it was. It still is a resource hog and Windows-only. I'm honestly amazed at how slow it is but it's the first of its kind from Google and Niniane and her team had to create a lot of it from scratch I guess. Hopefully they're green lighted to keep working on it because I do see some potential in it... but it has to cut down the memory/CPU intensiveness.

Google Trends shows that the interest for orkut is declining, but it's likely that some people no longer search for "orkut" since Google India and Google Brazil added the service to the navigational bar in December 2007. orkut has around 120 million users, up from 50 million users in ...

If you want to see a music video, there's a good chance you'll find it on YouTube. The downside is that YouTube doesn't offer any music-related feature, so you can't find information about the artists, lyrics or concert dates.A simple Greasemonkey script adds one of these missing feature: lyrics. The script creates a container titled "Lyrics" below the video's description and shows the lyrics when you expand the container. Obviously, the video must contain the ...
