Android coming to wearables

Android Wear: Information that moves with you Today we’re announcing Android Wear, a project that extends Android to wearables. And we’re starting with the most familiar wearable—watches. Going well beyond the mere act of just telling you the time, a range of new devices along with an expansive catalogue of apps will give you: Useful information when you need it most. Android Wear shows you info and suggestions you need, right when you need them. The wide variety of Android applications means you’ll receive the latest posts and updates from your favorite social apps, chats from your preferred messaging apps, notifications from shopping, news and photography apps, and more. Straight answers to spoken questions. Just say “Ok Google” to ask questions, like how many calories are in an avocado, what time your flight leaves, and the score of the game. Or say “Ok Google” to get stuff done, like calling a taxi, sending a text, making a restaurant reservation or setting an alarm. The ability to better monitor your health and fitness. Hit your exercise goals with reminders and fitness summaries from Android Wear. Your favorite fitness apps can give you real-time speed, distance and time information on your wrist for your run, cycle or walk. Your key to a multiscreen world. Android Wear lets you access and control other devices from your wrist. Just say “Ok Google” to fire up a music playlist on your phone, or cast your favorite movie to your TV. There’s a lot of possibilities here so we’re eager to see what developers build. QrqZl2QIz0c 0xQ3y902DEQ

Google encrypts all emails for a spy free Gmail

In a bid to stop snooping on its users, Google has overhauled its Gmail service in a big way — encrypting every single email you send or receive. According to the firm, “This ensures that your messages are safe not only when they move between you and Gmail’s servers, but also as they move between Google’s data centres”, said the firm. Gmail now always uses an encrypted HTTPS (secure) connection when you check or send email and it can not be turned off. “No one can listen in on your messages as they go back and forth between you and Gmail’s servers,” the firm said in a press release. Your email is important to you and making sure it stays safe and always available is important to us, said Google. As you go about your day reading, writing and checking messages, there are tonnes of security measures running behind the scenes to keep your email safe, secure, and there whenever you need it, said the firm officials. The effort is in the wake of the revelations made last year when National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblower Edward Snowden told the world that the NSA had access to Google’s servers. According to Google, the change means that no one can listen in on your messages no matter if you are using public WiFi or logging in from your computer, phone or tablet.
