This cool tool combines Closed Captioning technology with Google translate to provide subtitles in any language for Brazilian TV.
A look into how Google underwent a design revolution:
This project from Brazilian company D3 uses the new Google+ API to visualize the closeness of your circles on Google+. Curious how many people in your circles looped you into theirs as well? About how many people only you’ve circled, or who the lurkers on the outside are who’ve only circled you?
Give it a try here: http://www.d3.do/labs/circleoftrust/index.php
Aside from providing a new tool for social network investigation, the Circle of Trust visuals are beautiful and it’s exciting to see what the first experiments manipulating Google+ API yield.

Here it is finally, Google’s version of Facebook: Google+

Or take a video tour with sentimental music here: 
Google has launched a new search option built around what you love/like. Type in what you love, and it collects results for more than 20 different types of Google search/products in one page. Kind of fun. Not quite sure what the long term benefit is, but in terms of getting an fast overview on a topic or brand it could be useful.

What do you get when you combine the mystical World of Warcraft with Foursquare?
World of Fourcraft uses the Google maps API and Foursquare to transform New York into a huge, WOW-inspired, multi-player strategy game fueled by check-ins. New Yorkers: declare your allegiance to a borough today!
As it’s well-put by Mashable, “the nerdverse might just explode.”

Much like TinEye, Google has launched their version of search-by-image.

Google’s finally done it and taken the +1 sharing button public.
The official word: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/1-button-for-websites-recommend-content.html
More info: http://services.google.com/fh/files/misc/Final_Advertiser_Plus_1_One_Sheeter.pdf
Technical info about +1 Button Implementation: Here and Here
What does this mean for GSP and why might it be useful?… Consider this as an additional sharing button along with FB & Twitter.
It’s still in the experimental stage when displaying in Google results, but there is a good chance that it could take off in the future and that websites could have some level of evaluation for improved rankings based on how many +1′s they receive.

Probably the most interesting thing coming out of Google I/O last week was…The Google Music Project. It’s officially in BETA and soon to release (my sources say most likely due to legal clearances with labels), however, invites are being sent out to a percentage of users for testing the new service. Having had the chance to do so myself, it has been an amazing experience without having to “wire” your device to your computer in order to enjoy the music you love. It works on tablets running Honeycomb, latest smart-phones running the latest android build, as well as a web version to allow you to access your music anywhere in the world on any device.
The UI on the devices is really straight forward for the most part, and even syncs with android widgets to allow you to access it as quickly as possible. The site UI is interesting and simple, yet it’ll be great to see how they scale for users who have a large music library. I believe the most important thing to come is how Google plans to make this service part of the SOCIAL scene, as in a competitor to Spotify and/or iTunes (when that goes to the cloud hopefully this year).

Google has unveiled a new product, the Chromebook, a web-only laptop-like computer.
