Visiting the Google Mothership

I attended the latest GTUG (Google User Technology Group) event and was saddened to hear that the speaker for the night was injured in a bike accident. I hope he’s OK. This meeting was supposed to be about Google’s new real-time search features and mobile search (features debuted around December 7th of last year).

Here’s the blog post for more:

My general thoughts concerning Google real-time search (GRTS) is that it can be implemented more easier within Google products — such as Google calender without having to mess with the Twitter API. Twitter and Facebook (even though the latter is evil) are used in unexpected and very original ways these days and I like the maturing of these platforms.
