This project is most awesome. Read the captions.
It is interesting to think about how our notions of the past are partly informed by the artifacts of media. The first half of last century must have been really dreary (before they invented color.)

For the past few days, I’ve been in New Zealand, watching the folks at Google [x] as they test out their scheme for Internet connection via thousands of high-pressure, solar powered balloons circling the globe in the stratosphere. The initiative is called Project Loon, partly because it’s crazy. But Google is serious about making this happen. Read my dispatch from Kiwi-land here.

Ok, now this is supercool. I already got my head shrunk (see link below...) might be time for a hyper-realistic figurine (next time I swing through Hamburg.)

Google+ Dashboard - making it easier to manage your online presence
Today millions of businesses use Google+ to connect with their customers in meaningful ways. Many of these businesses also use AdWords to promote their products; Maps to update store info; and YouTube to publish high-quality video content (to name a few). We want to make it easier to manage your online presence - all across Google - so today we're getting started with Google+ Dashboard. After signing in to your Google+ page, you'll now have access to the following Dashboard features:
1) The ability to update your info (like website URLs, store hours and phone numbers) across Maps, Search and Google+ - all from the Overview tab.
2) One place to monitor your Google+ notifications, assign page managers, share photos and videos - even start a Hangout with followers.

Tonight we attended the birthday party of a dear friend... In addition to the great food and great company, we were surrounded by the abundance of interesting curios, junk, and knick-knacks he's collected over his years (as both a builder and an artist.) Everywhere I looked there was something that grabbed the eye.
Still getting to know my camera, but here are some fun and funky samples.

Fascinating article on the economics of ticket scalping...
It never occurred to me that "fan-considerate" artists who charge reasonable ticket prices to their concerts may be 1) deliberately optimizing their ultimate revenue (by allowing fans to use redirect cash to high margin merchandise), and 2) inadvertently creating a somewhat sketchy aftermarket (the story leads with a tale of a fan who lost $375 on counterfeit tickets.) Ouch.

I'm a big fan of +Upstart, founded by +Dave Girouard (former President of Google Enterprise, and SVP of Marketing at Virage, the startup I co-founded.)

Tonight I had the pleasure of seeing the Dance Connection Palo Alto "Let's Dance!" show at Foothill College. So many styles represented, and so many talented young dancers.
And a great "auto-awesome" opportunity. Yeah, I went a little nuts here, but you must admit the results are fun!
There are two more performances tomorrow if you are in the 'hood. Bring your camera. Otherwise, get out there and find something else that needs to be awesome'd!

I'm blown away by the new photo search in Google+ where it's recognizing subjects in my own photos -- here the various times I've run into snakes while hiking.
It's unbelievable how the state of the art in computer vision has progressed recently. And I can't imagine the amount of number crunching that must have gone into all this picture processing!

By popular demand... Some more shots of Rashi.
Some have questioned Rashi's parentage (she's often mistaken for a lab) and so I've included shots of her mother, father and siblings in this set. How do a silver Weimaraner and a red/brown Rhodesian Ridgeback product 9 jet-black puppies? The mysteries of genetics!

Here's why Vic couldn't sleep last night! A fresh new Google+ Android build that incorporates all of last week's goodness... and more. Enjoy.

For the sake of clarity - the new Android app will install on modern versions of Android (Froyo and above) with the advanced image editing features available on Ice Cream Sandwich and above. Rollout in progress...

Like many of you, I've been pretty amazed by the sometimes subtle (and sometimes stunning) magic of Google+ Photos Auto Enhance. It's one thing to watch this demo'd with other people's photos, and quite another to appreciate it on your own photos.
I made a community where, if you wish, you can share your own examples. (The first post is a bit of a "How to...")
As Vic explained, we're just getting started...

2013-05-18 08:12:03 (7 comments, 0 reshares, 17 +1s)
How to post here...
Hi folks. I'm eager to see your own examples of Auto Enhance doing its magic on your own photos. Here's the simplest way I've come up with to do a bit of show and tell... If you've got a better idea, let me know.
1. Find a great example, from your own photos, that you'd like to share publicly. Please ensure that you own rights to the photo, and as a courtesy, you may want to make sure that any other folks in the photo would be comfortable with you sharing this publicly (e.g. ask your husband or wife!)
2. View the enhanced photo in the Lightbox.
3. Go to More -> Download photo, save to your local hard drive, and rename as "After."
4. Temporarily remove the enhancement on the photo by clicking More -> Auto Enhance.
5. Go to More -> Download photo, save to your local hard dri... more »

Sitting by the Dock of the Bay (REPRISE)
I inadvertently deleted a post I shared this morning, so I'm resharing it. My bad! As a peace offering for spamming your stream, I've tucked in a couple of bonus photos of the live action at Google IO, included an animated GIF I made of people mulling around outside of Moscone!.

+Vic Gundotra and I are already in San Francisco preparing for Google IO 2013. The excitement is building.
This morning I walked from my hotel to the Google San Francisco offices, and the city was impossibly beautiful. These shots were taken as I ate my breakfast in the Google office. What a view!

Some highly-requested improvements to Hangouts On Air
Have you ever missed the beginning of a live Hangout On Air and wanted to rewind? How about viewing and sharing your recording right after your broadcast, versus waiting for "processing…"? Today we're launching these, and two other features, to improve your Hangouts On Air experience:
- Rewind live broadcasts. Regardless when you start watching, you can always go back to the beginning.
- Access recordings immediately after your broadcast. Once you're no longer On Air, your recording will be waiting for you on YouTube.
- Watch higher quality Hangouts On Air on the go. If you're tuning in from your mobile device, you'll notice better-looking video.
- Start live broadcasts without having to refresh. When you visit a page with a Hangout On Ai... more »

"Painting the Eiffel Tower" and other accidental products...
I had the pleasure of speaking at the Stanford-Accel Symposium yesterday, and in addition to seeing some old friends I had a chance to muse on the role of "data-thinking" on product development.
There was one rambling "for instance" I mentioned, that had a bit of pickup in the press. This was not a well-formed soundbite and I'm not sure was "gettable" via the quotes I saw... so I thought I'd take a moment to explain.
I'll start by saying here, as I said there, that I don't work on the Google Glass team. I'm not even a dogfooder (tester) of the product. In fact, I've tried on a Glass for literally a matter of minutes. So these musings are unrelated to actual products plans, and instead are just meant to illustrate what I think are the end... more »
