One of the most frustrating things for me about the new Google Chat and its Spaces is that several core functionalities are missing that were present in Hangouts. I mean, if you use it at all, you’re probably already painfully aware of the fact that you can’t edit messages, you only recently became able to […]
Leaving your laptop plugged in can cause its battery to degrade over time, and while your device will remain charged for the duration it’s tethered, it will fare worse off while on the go down the line. Chromebooks are well known for their incredible battery life. Sure, you could make the case that it’s because […]
What’s one of the features that Google Docs is missing in your opinion? What’s that, you say the ability to add a watermark to your document? I thought that was already available! Wasn’t that something that most services have had since the early 2000s? Nope. Google Docs is actually adding it in 2022, and it […]
Just last year, Google introduced something called “FLoC”, or the “Federated Learning of Cohorts” in which it would group people based on different criteria for ad targeting. This was set into “incubation” where it would be tested to see if it would be a viable replacement for the long-standing third-party cookies in Chrome. After pushing […]
Stadia Pro continues to be a great deal for anyone who subscribes, and February 2022 will be no different. In fact, it may be one of the best months yet, since gamers are getting a total of seven freaking games for their ten bucks this month! Most notable among them are Life is Strange and […]

There’s no denying that its presence in our lives has completely transformed the way we live, work, and interact with the world around us. However, just because […]
I’ve had my ups and downs with Google Assistant in the past, and have even written about how many of you have shared those frustrations. Unfortunately, a handful of users resort to cursing at their smart home speakers and displays in hopes of relieving the pressure of it being wrong in its responses so often. […]
So, do you remember that awesome, new Chromecast with Google TV that we reported on the other day? You know, the one that got you all excited for that we all hoped would end up being a higher-end device with more storage, and such? Well, I hate to be the one to crush your dreams, […]
I recently picked up my Pixel 6 Pro directly from the Google Store, and man am I excited! I opted for the larger storage capacity, and I have only filled it up halfway so far with awesome games and apps. I was so ecstatic to expand my storage to 256GB from the Pixel 4’s 64GB […]
I was watching Youtube this morning (yes, you should absolutely subscribe to Viva La Dirt League, they’re hilarious) and I happened upon a new option on the share sheet on my Google Pixel 6 Pro running Android 12. You’ll notice in the images below that a new “With kids” option now appears to the right […]
While not widely discoverable, you could previously Google search your favorite celebrities and be informed on a few topics by them via something called Cameos. Google’s ill-fated app allowed anyone with enough star power to record themselves answering mundane questions so that you could get your healthy dose of appeal to popularity. Apparently, this approach […]
According to 9to5Google, who has apparently had eyes on a document directly from Google itself, a new Chromecast with Google TV device is being prepared for mass production and release.
