Keyboardr: Real-time Google & Wikipedia Search Results

For those who may not yet know what Google Chrome is all about, it's Google's free web browser that launched into beta in early September. We originally asked what you thought of it a day after it launched and got mixed opinions.

Gmail IMAP Functionality Gets Turbo Charged!

One thing Google has really done a good job of is implementing a few unique features into Gmail that other mainstream email services don't offer. To give you an example, IMAP support. Of course some services do offer it, but many, especially those that are free, do not.

Google Goggles Help You Keep Your Dignity

Google is always thinking of you, aren't they? Okay, maybe not always, but today they are thinking of those of you who tend to uh, have a few too many drinks on the weekend, to put it nicely.

Dear Google, Thanks for a Glimpse in the Past!

In celebration of Google's 10th birthday they decided to give us all an awesome glimpse into the past. What they've gone and done is bring back the search engine just like it was in 2001. I'm not talking just the looks either... the full search index, too! Any searches you perform on that special page will pull up the same results you would have received back in 2001.
