Hasta La Gadget!

Taking a screenshot is a relatively simple process and without any software, a screenshot can be captured simply by hitting the Print Screen button on your keyboard, launching an image editing program like Paint and pressing Paste. Mac users have it easier with the built-in screen capture command by pressing CMD + Shift + 3 or 4. In any case it looks like Google plans to make capturing screenshots much easier, especially during your Google+ Hangout sessions with friends or family where you want to retain those precious moments.

Dubbed Hangouts Capture, it’s basically a button that when pressed allows you to capture a screenshot of your Hangout session. On top of that, the photo will be saved to an album that will only be available to those in your Hangout. More details of the Hangout Capture feature can be found on Jeremy Ng’s Google+ page, and according to Ng the feature will be rolling out worldwide in the near future, so keep an eye out for it! In the meantime we guess Print Screen will just have to do!

GIFs are very popular on the internet. They have been around for over two decades and don’t seem to be going anywhere any time soon. They’re short and often hilarious animations used by an insane amount of people. Many actually have their own GIF collection that they’re very proud of. Google announced today that it has now added the Animated filter in image search. This will allow users to filter image search results for GIFs. Its simple, but very useful indeed.

They’ve also added another filter that allows users to search for clipart with transparent background. This will also prove to be quite useful, all users have to do when searching for clipart is to select the Transparent filter from the Any color dropdown box. These new filters greatly improve the search experience for GIFs and background free cliparts. Google has just made the announcement right now, the filters have yet to be rolled out in image search. Though I hardly suspect that it will take a lot of time. So how many of you are going to substantially increase your GIF collection once these filters roll out?

Going on a Pinterest spree isn’t always easy — not when there’s been extra work involved in exploring someone else’s board, or figuring out what else is similar. The company may have licked both of those problems with a redesign that’s exiting its testing phase today. As of now, visiting a pin will show others from the same board or company, as well as items that fellow explorers have pinned alongside the one you’re viewing. Lower-profile changes are in store as well: the pin content itself is bigger, and the site will finally remember your place when you step back from a curious click. Web-based Pinterest fans should soon get an invitation to use the discovery-friendly revamp, while the Android and iOS apps will eventually see the new tricks through updates.

Now the new Pinterest look is going to be rolled out to all users and they should expect to receive an invitation soon. There are new discovery features aimed at making it easier for users to discover things that they love but don’t know about, apart from a handful of other changes. (more…)

We’re not sure what’s been up with tech companies and their inability to allow users who rely on their suite of cloud-based services to get any work done to continually function properly as just a few weeks ago, Apple’s iCloud experienced issues for hours, and today Google’s Drive has been reportedly having issues.

Fortunately, it seems the outages are intermittent and won’t affect all Google Drive users at this time, but a number of users are reporting being unable to access particular folders, while at the same time, being able to access other folders without experiencing any issues at all. Some other users are having completely no issues with their Google Drive, but instead are having issues signing in with their Google Apps account. The last of the users aren’t even able to access Google Drive entirely as they get a “502 error” for an extended period of time. (more…)
