Gyuri Lajos, in the Stop Reset Go team, recommended using Materialize CSS.

If it is based on Google’s Material Design, there are a lot of resources available to explore the possibilities. If I was building a Progressive Web App, this might be the place to start.

The project appears to be at an early stage of development, with a 1.0.0 release.

在 Search On 活动中，Google 引入了几项新功能，综合看来这些新功能是该公司迄今为止最强有力的尝试，让用户不只是在搜索框里简单输入几个单词。通过在一些细节之处应用新的多任务统一模型（Multitask Unified Model，MUM）机器学习技术，该公司希望开启一个良性循环：它将提供更多的细节和语境更为丰富的答案，希望用户会因此询问更为详细、语境更为丰富的问题，最终结果是提供更丰富更深入的搜索体验。Google 负责搜索的高级副总裁 Prabhakar Raghavan 也负责 Assistan、广告和其他产品。他喜欢说——而且他在上周日的一次采访中也重申——“搜索可不是一个已经解决掉了的问题。”这可能是真的，但是他和他的团队现在试图解决的问题与网络上的争吵并没什么关系，而是更多地为了给找到的内容添加语境。 对 Google 而言，该公司将利用机器学习技术，发挥自身识别相关主题关联内容的能力，并且以一种有组织的方式将这些关联内容呈现给用户。即将重新设计的 Google 搜索将开始显示“该知道的事（Things to know）”框，将你送到不同的子主题。当视频中的某个部分与这个主题相关时——即使整个视频与此并无关联——它也会将你送到那里。购物结果将开始显示附近商店的库存，甚至还会显示与你的搜索相关的、不同款式的服装。对你而言，Google 正在提供一种超越文本框的、新的搜索方式。该公司正在积极推动旗下图像识别软件 Google Lens 进入更多地方。它将被内置于 iOS 上的 Google 应用程序以及桌面上的 Chrome 网络浏览器中。Google 希望，通过 MUM，能让用户不仅仅识别鲜花或者地标，而是能够直接使用 Lens 提问和购物。

How to create a website

However, this depends on Google "keeping" your notes for the long-haul. Given their propensity to discontinue projects, that seems hazardous. At least Hypothesis provides a mechanism that's more open: i'm not sure whether it can be considered stable and secure for the long-term.

作为 Google 旗下第一款即时通讯平台，Google Talk 于 2005 年 8 月 24 日推出。这意味着 Google 开发通讯客户端的时间比某些竞争对手诞生的时间点还要早。但随着过去十五年间持续不断的战略变化、竞争产品的发布以及内部冲突，Google 至今也拿不出一款占据主导地位、甚至真正称得上稳定的即时通讯平台。这十余年间的反复折腾，还给了其他更为专注的厂商们壮大的机会。令人尴尬的是，目前市面上的几乎所有拳头产品都比 Google 的同类方案更年轻。WhatsApp 只有 12 岁，Facebook Messenger 9 岁，iMessage 9 岁，Slack 8岁——而曾经的老大哥 Google Talk 甚至在 Zoom 诞生的四年之前就已经在提供视频聊天功能。 很明显，Google 的通讯产品比不上之前提到的任何一款重量级竞品。事实上，Google 内部一直缺乏一种占据主导的消息应用，白白浪费掉了十几年宝贵光阴。如今的 Google 既无法彻底克服这个问题，也无法集全力构建单一产品。Facebook 与 Salesforce 等厂商都在单一通讯应用上投入了数百亿美元，但 Google 却似乎仅仅满足于一个个由跳槽项目经理负责的，资金不足、人员不稳的小项目。曾经有一段时间，Google 也开发出过一款不错的消息收发解决方案，但随时关停、发展重心的反复转移以及因此对产品成熟度造成的严重破坏，导致 Google 无法将那一点点客户好感留存至今。或者说 Google 的表现有一种特殊性，我们很少看到哪家公司会在同一个坑里挣扎这么长时间、尝试开发这么多不同的产品（Google Chat 才刚刚推出不到一个月）。

This is the process of using social login. Google/FB does the authentication part. Once the token has been confirmed, create a new access_token and refresh_token for the user like a normal user who logged in via email/password.

I think I've read this bit about Google forgetting from Tim Bray(?) before. Would be useful to have additional back up for it.

Not being able to rely on Google means that one's on personal repositories of data in their commonplace book becomes far more valuable in the search proposition. This means that Google search is more of a discovery mechanism rather than having the value of the sort of personalized search people may be looking for.

2003 年 Google 成立名为“Search by Location”的内部项目，输入邮政编码或者地址，Google 给出一系列基于这个位置的搜索结果。这本质上还是搜索，只不过是搜索经过认证的黄页信息，组织形式还是一个个网页。

“实事求是的说，这就是一个毫无用处的项目。”当时的产品经理 Bret Taylor 回忆说，Search by Location 甚至一整天都没有一个用户。Taylor 后来任职 Facebook 的 CTO，现在是协作工具 Quip 的 CEO。

2004 年，Google 收购了三家地图数据服务商 Keyhole、Where2 和 Zipdash。其中 Keyhole 的核心技术，就是把无数个碎片化的卫星图组合，对应到地图之上。

2005 年 2 月 8 号，第一版 Google 地图被分享到技术社区 Slashdot 上。“用鼠标拖动显示出来的地图，Cool！”、“这是我见过最棒的网页应用了。”Google 地图一开始得到的评价还不错。

现在看其实非常简陋。地图的地点信息不可点击、不会打开任何网页——就是一张放在网上的地图纸。覆盖的最大范围是美洲大陆，有地理信息的也只有美国本土，隔壁的加拿大和墨西哥只是轮廓。

Search on documents returning something in the neighborhood of 500 words or so seems to be the right amount of information. One wants a few paragraphs related to an idea and not an entire book which takes longer to scan.

Google search does this type of search and it's also what Google Books attempts to do as well when searching specifically there.

I'd done that and even did a stand alone view of just that calendar without any luck. I'd even tried deleting and re-adding last night.

I just deleted the calendar and tried it again from scratch. It seems to be working now, so perhaps it was a cache issue somewhere between the site software and Google Calendar? Maybe a glitch on the edge of having no events in the subscribed calendar and several events in there now?

This chapter mentions Google Ads and Microsoft, do these same suggestions also relate to Bing or Yahoo closely?

对我们而言：技术，绝不仅仅是我们创造的设备或产品，因为那并不是终极目标。技术，是一种民主的力量，它所提供的信息，便是力量之源。而Google正是这样一家信息公司，成立至今，始终坚守初衷，从未改变。同时，人们对信息的运用，也不断给我带来惊喜与启迪。

我们长期投入于开发以机器学习及人工智能为支持的产品，并以此明显改善人们的工作方式。在未来，你的手机将能够自动提取正确文件、规划会议日程并追踪会议进展、通知别人你能否按时到达、草拟短信回复，并能够处理你的开销等等。

放眼未来，“设备”的概念将与我们渐行渐远。有朝一日，各种外形的计算机将会在我们生活的各个方面，扮演智能助手的角色。这个世界将从“移动设备优先”变为“人工智能优先”。

多年来，Google一直坚持着自1998年创立以来就立下的使命：“整合全球信息，使人人都能访问并从中受益。”这一使命也在如今变得更加切实且至关重要。因为，在当今世界，人们已经习惯于使用设备来帮助他们安排每天的生活、来往于各地并与彼此保持联系。手机也已成为管理我们日常生活的远程控制器。人们正在手机上，以许多过去无法想象的方式，进行沟通、消费、教育以及娱乐。

在这封公开信中，Google 创始人描述了公司未来的样子

AIY全称是Artificial Intelligence Yourself，即动手创作你的人工智能。它是一个由Google在2017年启动的项目，目的就是让每个创客（Maker）都可以DIY自己的人工智能产品。

在该项目的网站上，主要为孩子们提供了视觉套件和语音套件，协助他们去完成简单的智能产品。

人工智能已经以一些非常引人注目的方式改变了世界，在未来肯定会做的更好。但他是一种组件技术。晶体管已经改变了世界，但是说“晶体管会如何改变世界”几乎是错误的抽象层面，这就好比通过讨论H2O来理解一条河。所以AI将对科技智能化的提升起到重要的作用，同时也会改变我们给人们传递价值的方式。科技将越来越少地直接依靠机械化结构化的解决方式来完成我们交代的任务，而是越来越依靠智能的提升来解决问题。

我们会记录一些项目，特别是被淘汰了的项目。有两个原因：第一，我们不想做无用功。我们不希望有人在我们毙掉一个项目两年后又提出同样的想法，然后花三个月再研究它。

第二个原因：我们要记下我们已经有的想法 。我们有一个数据库， 因为有时有的假设可能会被再次考虑。假设我们因为一个必要的组成成分是锂离子能量密度的10倍的电池，而废掉了某个项目。因为这种电池根本不存在，并且没有可靠的证据表明在未来五年它会出现。但是如果这个电池问世了，我们还是可以回去说：“嘿，等一下，现在我们可以重新考虑这个项目，因为这是我们当时否定它的原因，现在必要的技术可以实现了。”

所以我们的方法的第一步就是首先明确你想解决的最大的问题是什么。你必须能够描述它，以便它能抓住机会在X生根。其中有一些是可以解释，很难但可能解决的技术问题。一旦这问题确实存在，我们就得依序解决。这个时候，我们不是说，“最有趣的是做什么或第一步最容易做的是什么？”而是说，“这个项目不能成功的最大原因是什么？”

“在Google Wave中，你可以创建wave，并添加人员。Google Wave中的每个人都可以使用富文本、照片、小工具，以及网络上其他来源的文件。他们可以插入回复或直接编辑wave。这是一款富文本编辑工具，可供多人同时编辑，你可以通过屏幕实时地看到其他协作者在wave中输入的内容。Google Wave既适用于持久性内容，也支持快速消息，可用作协作和交流。你还可以使用回放的功能，重新查看wave的发展经过。”

Wave的故事始于2004年10月，当时Google收购了一家名为Where 2 Tech的创业公司。这项收购与新兴技术的结合，最终诞生了人们出行时最喜爱的Google地图。

新项目由主力开发人员的Lars和Jens Rasmussen兄弟负责。当初他们二人合力发布了第一版的Google地图，后来这俩兄弟开始思考下一步在Google干什么。

Google 员工 James Damore 在公司内网发布了一份长达 10 页的宣言，题为《谷歌的意识形态回音室》（Google’s Ideological Echo Chamber），在 Google 内部引起轩然大波。

Damore 的核心观点是：女性程序员偏少，不是因为她们受到了偏见和歧视，而是基于生理因素的先天差异。他进而批评 Google 的性别多元化（Diversity）政策，为女性或少数族裔提供的教育培训过多了。并认为公司没有直面这一问题，一些想法太神圣以至于不能开诚布公地讨论，从而造成了一种意识形态的回音室。

随后，Damore 被 Google 开除，而他本人已向美国劳工关系委员会投诉，选择与 Google 对簿公堂。

Google

Google threatened to stop its search engine from Australia if the country’s code on News Media Bargaining becomes a law.

What makes it a problem for the search giant is the fact that with the proposed law, it will be necessitated to pay for links and snippets in Search. Google says this provision “would set an untenable precedent” for its business which is actually “not compatible with how search engines work.”

Mel Silva, VP Google Australia and New Zealand, in her opening statement to the Senate Economics Committee Inquiry, had said that the principle of free linking between websites is fundamental to Search.

Also with the difficult financial and operational risk if this part of the Code becomes law, Google will have no choice but to stop making Search available in Australia.

“That’d be a bad outcome not just for us, but for the Australian people, media diversity and small businesses who use Google Search.” the Mel Silva says

Google has, however, proposed technical review in 3 areas to address the issue it has with the proposed law. The company stated that these amendments will make pay available to publishers for value, without breaking Google Search.

Like, for example, Google having a problem with ad-blockers in Google Chrome. This is an example of why monopolies aren't great; Google makes money selling ads but they also control a browser that most people use. There's a conflict here when the users of the browser install extensions that limit Google's ability to show you ads.
