Takeaways from Google I/O 2017



Takeaways from Google I/O 2017

If you have missed the keynote, you don’t wanna miss this time…



So as we are all familiar with Google and it’s innovative products, this year is no different than previous ones where they continues to amaze all of us with their continuous implementation on VR/AR/Machine Learning.
Let’s get right into the key points that matters the most for you and all others.

Take#1 : Starting off with an interesting game !!!




As we are used to Google’s​ culture from years now, they like to make things intuitive and simple along with user’s complete attention​ on what they are presenting.
This time it’s a Link - g.co/bubbles (Must Visit)
When you open this link, it opens up an interface for you to create a bubble from your side and score some points for your colors(Red,Green,Blue and Yellow) - even I don’t know what that exactly means.

Take#2 : Sundar Pichai and the Stats




It’s getting really very excited everytime when Sundar Pichai - The CEO starts off with this line - “Welcome to Google I/O 2017".
And it all becomes much more interesting to listen all the unbelievable stats like App Installs, Monthly Active Users, Total Downloads and etc etc etc in the most iconic Indian Accent.
I will not go deep into all the stats Sundar said, as we all know it’s always over a billion downloads and millions of Active Users for Google.

Take#3 : Google Assistant! Gets more advanced now!!!




By Scott Huffman - Vice President Engineering, Assistant
Google Assistant your personal and individual Google for you, as they say. Now gets more advanced in terms of Improved Machine Learning to listen more accurately in noisier of environments and now can make your work more easier by just having a conversation with your Assistant​.
Now you can translate any unfamiliar languages Sign Boards and Hotel Menu when you are out of your locality, just by asking to your Assistant to translate this image in your language and further you can continue the conversation anything about that person, thing or place.
Google Assistant will be available on iPhone too.

Take#4 - Google Photos enhanced by 3 new fun features…




By Anil Sabharwal - Vice President, Photos
One of my favorite Apps - Google Photos - now gets more and more advanced in understanding the context of each picture you take and allowing you to take further action onto them.
The 3 new features added is as follows:
  • Suggested Sharing — The Google Photos App now suggest you about some of your photos in your collection of others face in them to be shared with that specific person in just a click away.
  • Shared Libraries — Now you don’t have to worry about each and every picture you take from your Camera to be automatically shared with the ones you always wanted it to share and have a specific collection as you does. By enabling Shared Libraries in your App, and setting up the ones with whom you wanna share your photos, you are just a click away.
  • Photo Books — And this one is for those who wants a Hard-Book cover of their photo albums in the App, on their hands by ordering it from Google.

Take#5 : Android O Developer Preview




By Dave Burke - Vice President Engineering, Android (So Cool)
Android O Developer Preview is the thing we all are waiting for, but it’s not that big update like Lollipop (Material Design), but with some real fun updates/tweaks in our day to day experience with Android.
Some key tweaks are :
  • Picture-in-Picture
  • Notification Dots
  • Autofill with Google
  • Smart Text Selection
And Google now thrilled to make Kotlin an official language on Android.


And to wrap up the Takeaways List, only thing I can say is that there is always a possibility attached with Google and it’s Products.

Whether you use it or not, it will come some where handy for you in your life once — that’s Google for you.
I am just a big Admirer of Google,it’s innovations,it’s Products, it’s dedication,it’s environment,it’s work culture and basically everything.
Hit that Green Heart Button at the bottom, if you liked it and I know you will.




Kudossss To Googlers

My First Android App Story

Back in  November 2013 , pursuing Bachelor in Computer Applications from  GLSICA , me and some others students from the class are forced/asked to develop our projects compulsorily in  Android or iOS  just because we were in that  top-30  list of toppers. At that time, I don’t know even the  single piece of code  in Android. I have chosen to do project in Android because I don’t have an iOS device to test our app and the configurations in my laptop. After 2–3 days of  parliamentary discussion  we’ve reached to a conclusion that we will develop the App for  TGB Cafe n Bakery . Now when you don’t know any programming language, you go to Tutorial Sites but luckily from somewhere I got one of the best collection of  Android Tutorials  by  The New Boston  of about 200 videos. And slowly and gradually I get into this  incredible environment  of Android Programming with layouts and Java fi...

That Winning Moment!!!

That Winning Moment!!! You are just a thought away from the fact that the penultimate thing we all want in our career is that winning moment and the motivation to carry that winning momentum all through outside and inside our career span. Let’s take a sneak peek of what can be some of the greatest winning moments. * That Bird who assembles the Nest: Have you ever thought about that little bird who is continuously collecting those tiny little wooden sticks to assemble or make home for her young ones to keep there and feed there. How great that  moment  will be for that bird, when she place that final wood stick on her assembled nest to finish that small yet hardworking activity. The bird can die for that type of winning moment!!! * That college boy who got placed in an interview: Everyone of you have definitely been through that phase of your graduation or school-life where you got selected for sitting in ...

The Positives of Terrorism

The Positives of Terrorism From this ultimate post I wanna provide you with some positives of all the terrorists who are spreading violence all across the country, the continents and the world. The reason behind is even not exactly known to those terrorists, that are wandering around with weapons. Let’s start firing the positives: Positive#1 — Making Families Come Together Those hardworking terrorists kill anyone from any country, cast or religion and think that they are getting successful in destroying families altogether but those silly humans don’t know that they are actually making those families come more closer than ever by killing their loved ones. Yes I know this is sad-very-sad and heart-breaking especially for those affected families and their members, but if you take any positive from this situation than you can realise that those families are becoming emotionally more healthier than anybody else. Positive#2 - Making Citiz...
