Googling Friday #27

Hello everyone and TGIF! It is Friday which means it is time for another edition of Googling Friday! Let’s see what is going on this week in GoogleLand.

Android 3.0 Honeycomb off Limits to Phone Developers

Google has closed Android 3.0 Honeycomb to phone developers which of course means no phone tablets on Android anytime soon. Kind of makes sense to me, but I can see where some developers might accuse Google of pulling an Apple.

Google Search supporting Cherokee language

Google really pleased my heart with this move. For those that don’t know, I am 1/8 Cherokee and the Cherokee Nation holds a special place in my heart. Google scored big points with me here.

Google Fiber coming to Kansas City, Kansas

Google has named Kansas City, KS, to be the first city to get its high speed fiber network. I will let Google take it from here.



Pretty cool stuff, obviously KCKS will be a test market, we have seen before where whole cities were going to get WiFi networks, see Earthlink and several cities like San Francisco and Anaheim that were going to get it but it never materialized.

Google intros +1

Seeking to keep up with Facebook’s Like feature on stories and websites, Google has announced a new feature called +1. To give an idea of how it will work, once again here is Google.



Well, with that, we conclude another week of Google news. See you next week for more news from the big G. Have a great weekend!
