OK Go continue to be awesome
OK Go are probably better known for their crazy viral videos rather than their musical talents. However, there is no denying they have carved out a niche for themselves which has meant YouTubers now lap up anything coming out from the band. Now they’ve hooked up with Google and choreographers Pilobolus for a HTML5 Chrome experiment, [...]

Friday, May 6, 2011
A lot of people dislike Google, primarily for their stance on privacy and their dominance in the market. I however, feel a bit more inclined to like the brand, if only for the fact that to me they are less evil than Apple, and support open-source in many instances (Android fan right here!). It would be amiss of me [...]

Tuesday, March 15, 2011
Another addition to my Cold Tea section here, in which I highlight what is, in my opinion, poor marketing activity. This video is a demo of a display ad (which can be found here) used to promote Gran Turismo 5. Integrating Google Maps into a banner and allowing users to “drive” around a real [...]

Well Google, I did not see a sudoku solver on your 2011 plans but kudos for the surprise element. I’ve tried it and it works, although that’s about as close to a sudoku puzzle as I’m ever coming to again.

Tuesday, May 11, 2010
They don’t do them often, but when Google go for a flashy product video, rather than an instructional one, they do them pretty well. This is no exception and pitches Chrome up against a potato, sound and lightning (just watch it and it’ll make sense. For full spec details, click below for more.

Ok, so this is a now a week or two old, and meant to post it last week but never got around it (I’m busy making sure as many people as possible get to see Iggy Pop getting driven to distraction by a puppet right now) but better late than never hey! This Google funded [...]

Wednesday, January 13, 2010
Just after I make a post about Google, I stumble across another piece of Google news. According to a patent filed last week under the name “Claiming Real Estate in Panoramic or 3D Mapping Environments for Advertising” Google plan to fill billboards on Street View with dynamically inserted ads, providing the search giant with another [...]

Wednesday, January 13, 2010
Nope, Google aren’t stealing Verizon’s strapline, but they have launched this cool little new feature for mobile search. The video describes it better than I can (plus I can’t type a funky bass line as background music) so have a look, but to me it’s another great example of Google making search easier, along with [...]

Tuesday, January 5, 2010
So there is only one thing that the online and tech community is talking about today – the unveiling of Google’s new Nexus One smart phone. Of course, I say unveiling although details have been available for some time now. However, nothing stimulates news networks and bloggers like a big press release and as far [...]
