As was previously announced, Yahoo Messenger 2.0 is now live on the Apple Store. Unfortunately this is not the best app and is missing the basic things:
- As an app specifically builty for iOS 4.1, the icons are not made for the retina screen and look like crap
- Even though the Ipod Touch 4th gen has 2 cameras and works with Face time, Yahoo made this version compatible only with Iphone 3GS and 4
Hopefully, based on user pressure we will be seeing a new version pretty soon that fixes all this issues
UPDATE:
And here we have it, an official answer from the development team, on their official blog:
We’re working on support for video on iPod Touch 4 and hope to release an update very shortly. Appreciate your patience.

So, I just hope that short means short

Google has confirmed with a post on their official webmaster blog the changes that users have been seeing for the past week.
Changes are for:
- Search queries

The most important being the better statistics for search queries and the possibility to view the data for each one separately

Google’s LatLong blog has announced that the Latitude service is now more user friendly and can be accessed at it’s own URL: http://www.google.com/latitude . The update has added now in the same place also the Dashboard and History, making the service more fun to use. I’ve been using those 2 since their launch but to access them I had to rely on my browser’s history or Google Search to get to their URL.
Google Custom Search is also receiving a new feature and allows you now to manage what the auto completion feature shows to your users.

Tonight I was searching with an anonymous proxy on Google when I got a new (at least for me layout). The new choice of colors is way more pleasant than the old colors and there are also a few other changes (icons and labeling) on the more options sidebar. Hope that this test passes and we will see a general rollover

Google LatLong blog is anouncing that now Microsoft Photosynth is available on Google Maps’s Street view. Oh wait, is not Photosynth is only Picasa integration
Looking how similar the products are I’m curios how long it will take until the patent lawsuit appears. And who will win…
