It was reported earlier that Google was testing a feature which could let you make and receive calls from Gmail. But now it’s a reality, Google has now formally declared that this certainly is a new element of Gmail.

“Gmail voice and video chat makes it easy to stay in touch with friends and family using your computer’s microphone and speakers,” says Google software engineer Robin Schriebman. “But until now, this required both people to be at their computers, signed into Gmail at the same time. Given that most of us don’t spend all day in front of our computers, we thought, ‘wouldn’t it be nice if you could call people directly on their phones?’”

“We’ve been testing this feature internally and have found it to be useful in a lot of situations, ranging from making a quick call to a restaurant, to placing a call when you’re in an area with bad reception,” says Schriebman.

When people will make a call using their Google voice numbers, the same number will be displayed as caller ID to the person they called up. Calls to United States and Canada will be free of cost for this year at least. For other calls you would be charged as per Google voice rates.

Just look out for “call phones” option in your chat section of your Gmail and you will be all set to make and receive phone calls. Now that’s really great!!

If you see Like.com for the first time you might find it like an ordinary e-commerce website, but it seems that the technology backing this website has grabbed Google’s attention.

“Combining the best in Computer Vision and Machine Learning technology with the expertise of designers who have spent decades in the fashion industry, we are solving hard problems unique to buying shoes, apparel, jewelry, accessories and home decor online,” Like.com says on its about page. “While hard goods such as books, electronics and DVDs are bought based on reviews, product specs or merchant ratings, soft goods (what we, at Like.com, focus on) are purchased based on everything from the consumer’s personal style and whether the item matches an outfit to current trends and opinions of the fashion elite.”

Google has firmly decided to brawl against Oracle lawsuit. Google regards the claim as completely unjustified. The whole issue was regarding the usage of Java by Google in Android phone platform.

Oracle’s lawsuit is a disappointing and “baseless” attack not only against Google but also against the open-source Java community, Google spokesman Aaron Zamost said via e-mail on Friday.

“The open-source Java community goes beyond any one corporation and works every day to make the web a better place. We will strongly defend open-source standards and will continue to work with the industry to develop the Android platform,” he said.

Google infringed Oracle’s Java-related intellectual property “knowingly, directly and repeatedly,” Oracle said on Thursday in a statement about the lawsuit, which it filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco.

Oracle got technology of Sun’s Java along with its acquirement of Sun Microsystems. Oracle is specially focusing on issue related to Dalvik Java technology which Google created for Android.

Google has decided to get over the old version of Adsense for search and is recommending users to move on to the incredible new version which is backed by Google custom search. If you are seeing ‘powered by Google’ icon on your search result page then it’s the old version.

In a post on Google’s Inside Adsense blog, Katrina Kurnit writes:

“AdSense for search with CSE gives you more control over your search results without changing how you earn money showing AdSense for search ads. For example, with the new version, you’ll have access to advanced features like refinements and promotions. Our team has developed a number of updates and improvements during the past few months, and you can access more advanced features at www.google.com/cse.”

If you want to do the upgradation process then simply go to Adsense setup and look out for Adsense for search. After that decide upon the website which you want the users to search. Then follow up with customization and lastly do the updating of code.

Yet another great step by Google!!

For Google page speed is one of the signals for search engine ranking. If you keep this in consideration, you will be glad to know that Google chrome 6 developers can use web timing metrics to measure page loading time across different browsers.

“Measuring web page load time is a notoriously tricky but important endeavor. One of the most common challenges is simply getting a true start time. Historically, the earliest a web page could reliably begin measurement is when the browser begins to parse an HTML document (by marking a start time in a <script> block at the top of the document).” says Google software engineer Tony Gentilcore.

The engineer feels a lot of time is spent to fetch the page from the web server. So in order to get over this problem some web developers are storing the navigation start time in a cookie.

You can find this metrics under window webkit performance in your chrome 6. This without doubt is a great innovation by Google.
