This is indeed the best (and funniest) reaction to Google Glass yet.  If you think +Ron Richards needs his own pair, re-share and let +Project Glass know. He gets my vote.

What happens when your open-source baby gets forked

Some episodes of In Beta are mostly just me asking questions of someone who makes things people actually use. Such was the case with #47, in which I kinda-sorta prod +Gina Trapani into digging into her feelings about having her +Todo.txt app forked into an entirely different (and Google-Play-posted) app. Fun stuff.

I just got my Google Glass last night, and it's been a long time since a tech gadget has had me grinning ear to ear so often. I was at the #tech4dem  event, and let +Marci Harris and +Macon Phillips try on my Glass. Both of them quickly got the same big grin!

It's not at all what people expect!  It's a magical experience.  I haven't yet been quite able to put my finger on why it feels that way, but I think it's the immediacy. Rather than fumbling for your phone, then opening the camera app, you can take a picture or a video with a touch, and share it with another touch. You can also talk to the device, taking pictures, doing google searches, getting directions, or sending emails or texts, without ever touching the devices. (You can wake it up with a touch or by tossing your head slightly.)

Both amused and scared of Jeff and Leo disagreeing about the Pixel. I still say: Google I/O Sumo Suit throwdown!

In Beta #44 is all about Facebook Home

Why does the press take the automatic tack of "How bad is this for Google, and how can they crush this?" How much do most journalists, even tech-savvy types, know about how Android really works? And isn't Facebook Home a better interface ("launcher") than exists on many cheap or just badly carrier-hobbled phones?

A few weeks ago at SXSW in Austin, TX, I gave developers a sneak peek at the Google Mirror API, which is what they'll use to build services for Glass.  With the presentation, we set out to help developers and entrepreneurs start imagining what they could do on Glass.

The Mirror API is a cloud platform that uses OAuth 2.0 and REST as an architecture for delivering a new class of experiences to people using Glass.  We walked through the basic building blocks of the API: timeline cards, menu options, share contacts, and subscriptions.  We then demonstrated some early uses of the Mirror API on Glass that were built by Evernote, The New York Times, Path, and our own Gmail team.  

Developing for this type of device is a little different because you’re wearing it and it’s a very intimate experience.  So we also gave would-be Glass developers some recommended guidelines:

In Beta #43: Stickers, Pebbles, Google Glass, and Gina's good social media guidelines

This episode is the upside-down postage stamp of In Betas. Why? Because there's a fun defect in which I accidentally try to close down the show before we're actually done. And it made it through editing!

Oh, also, we talk about managing expectations, vis-a-vis the Pebble watch and its customer support, and how Google Glass has managed expectations (not so well!), and then social media behavior and how to reward the best of it (and how +Gina Trapani might track it with algomarithms).

Also: a link for you to get an In Beta sticker. Enjoy!

Improved search autocomplete predictions
If you've searched your email for "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" or other lengthy phrases, it just got easier to find what you're looking for.  Autocomplete predictions in Gmail may now include your past Gmail searches.

Past searches as well as the new contact thumbnails shown below are rolling out to all Gmail users globally, including Google Apps for Business customers, over the next few days.

We're excited to share a huge new milestone for ThinkUp. Our latest beta features a rich social search that works a lot like Facebook's Graph Search, but for all your information -- your Google+ posts, Twitter friends, Foursquare checkins, Facebook status updates and more! Plus, if you're not a geek, you can now sign up to get on our waiting list and be the first in line for access to the new ThinkUp.com service.

In Beta #41: When should developers hack around limitations?

I was intrigued by two different moves by Facebook recently, both seeming to try and escape the rules and limitations of Android. +Gina Trapani, however, actually talked me into some weird kind of AGREEMENT WITH SOMETHING FACEBOOK DID. It was strange.

Also: Google Reader. Because nobody has talked enough about Google Reader lately ;)

Sexism in the Samsung Galaxy S4 Event

I care deeply about women in technology, so my tech sexism radar is pretty sensitive. I'm also a big fan of Broadway theater.

I hear where +Molly Wood  is coming from here:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-31322_3-57574466-256/samsung-gs4-launch-tone-deaf-and-shockingly-sexist/

But the presentation offended me less because it was sexist, and more because it tried so hard to be an entertaining SHOW and failed so utterly. I can't tell you how many times I cringed hearing Will Chase's "jokes" fall flat. (I used to really like that guy. But first SMASH, now this.)

To me, the event read like a poor attempt at old-timey theatrics (which, granted, come with a subtle element of sexism)--not a booth babe situation.

You can imagine the meeting that happened at Samsung when they decided to do this,... more »

Google Now is behind an eponymous flag in chrome://flags in the last Chromium build (download-chromium.appspot.com).

Sadly, we still can't play with it yet because the Google Now server URL still remains secret.
If you know it though, all you have to do is set
localStorage['server_url'] = 'http://example.com'; in the background page.

Bounce? Flip? Jus' refresh!

It was last year when I was in conflict with myself about Pull-to-refresh and Android, so I wrote what I thought here: https://plus.google.com/110456813491619030792/posts/MV9h2CJYPDs

At the time I wished Google+ had a feature to let us embed images right in the body of the posts, so it was kind of hard to illustrate in just words. I get words like why didn't you make Carbon's refresh gesture more like Facebook or Twitter apps on Android. So...

Here's why, Android = Solid & Dimensional system, while iOS is elastic and while is skeuomorphic & natural looking, it's very 2D in interaction and its physics are 2D unlike Android that is dimensional yet flat, did I lose you there? 

While Google apps such as Chrome, G+, and Gmail all adhere to that on iOS, on Android they speak their own language, no... more »

Why is HBO Go a no-go on my Revue? :(

Update: Yup, the webapp works fine, but I still wish it was a native app.

New episode of In Beta in which I got to rant about all the Mayer backlash re: Yahoo's new work-from-home policy.

Seriously, how many people are going to bring up "the hypocrisy" of her in-office nursery when CEOs at her level leading troubled companies fly private jets and do all sorts of things to make their work lives more expedient every day?

Say hello to your new profile page!

Google+ just updated the way your profile looks and I have to say I'm really, really happy about it. Things look cleaner, are more image-heavy, and less awkward than they were before. I think we all got used to how awkward cover photos were before (they weren't great) and I'm happy to see them change. I've included the big changed in the image below. Other changes include:

- Much better "About" layout showing who you have circled, two columns instead of one, and renaming "About me" to "Story" (which I think is much more human)
- Settings on your profile page are more visible
- Easier way to view your profile as public or as others
- Easier editing of your profile by each topic
- #CoverPhoto  has a resolution of up to 2120 x 1192
- New hovercards that highlight your basic... more »

Switched to Pocket Casts from Doggcatcher. DC is awesome but Pocket Casts' sync between devices option got me. I've been dying for the Kindle of podcasting apps (syncing how far you listened, listened-to and new episodes) for awhile now and PC gets very close.

Good counterpoint to a video I posted recently:

"Programming is not for everyone. It is not an absolutely fun and delightful task as it’s portrayed to be in videos like the aforementioned or movies like “The Social Network”. It is rarely an invigorating social activity. A lot of time, it’s sitting in front of a computer screen, looking at a colorful text document, and thinking, and thinking, and typing, getting angry, and wondering why the hell you’re living a life sitting down."
