This is probably a Pixel exclusive thing for now, but the internet discovered this week that Google Clock will let you record your own alarm sounds. Yes, your mind is now wandering off into, “Oh boy, how annoying can I make my roommate’s alarm without them noticing,” and that’s completely normal. It is, right? Shared on Twitter by Mishaal Rahman, we can also confirm that there is indeed a setting in Google Clock’s alarm sounds section called “Record new.” If you tap on… Source link

The news: Dialogue between Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai and Google employees became tense during a company-wide all-hands meeting this week. As Pichai elaborated on the company’s “simplicity sprint” initiative, he also fielded tense employee questions about the company’s travel and entertainment budget cuts, potential layoffs, and calls for more productivity, per CNBC.

As Android enthusiasts, many of us have become accustomed to watching Apple announcements that bring in new products and features that look awfully similar to things Google did first—not to say Android hasn’t borrowed a few things too. But in recent years, there seems to be another thing Apple has borrowed from Google—is willingness to have fun. Think back about five years, when we all made a game of trying to guess the next dessert name for Android, and the unveiling of each new… Source link

Do you ever have déjà vu? Many Google users may worry they do this week. With Groundhog Day arriving on Wednesday, the search engine giant poked fun at users looking for information on whether a small weather-forecasting mammal in West Central Pennsylvania saw his shadow. Normally, a slightly incorrect spelling on a Google search will lead the site to ask, “Did you mean: _____.” For example, a search for “Best Bill Murrey mvoies” may turn up a result of, “Did you mean: Best Bill… Source link
