Leaked: Gmail is changing It's look......>

Gmail seems to be changing by giving new attractive look to attract more and more users to use gmail and it might be possible that their intention behind this that people should try Google plus more and more.




The Web search giant accidentally slipped out a video on YouTube that gives a preview of the upcoming changes in its popular email service with Jason Cornwell (Gmail's user experience designer) sharing a presentation.

The video, which was immediately pulled out and has since then been marked private, revealed that the new Gmail will feature new changes like a cleaner design, updated search box that includes advanced options, new interface for conversations and high-resolution themes.

The new user interface will also reportedly automatically fit in any window and will boast of cleaner, simpler, and intuitive look. It is also likely to allow users to resize the chat and label areas. The revamped Gmail will also let email threads in Gmail to include profile pictures.

We will see later how much it is attractive and interesting to use.

ISRO's Bhuvan is better than Google Earth

The satellite based 3D mapping application from Indian Satellite Research Organization (ISRO) Bhuvan will enable users to take satellite data more closely compared to Google Earth.



Bhuvan has advanced features than the Google Earth as it allow users to zoom far closer than the aerial view from a chopper.

The Google earth shows details up to 200 meters of distance and Wikimapia shows up to 50 meters. But Bhuvan will show images up to 10 meters, which means a user can view details up to a three floor high building

The registered users will be able to browse and download satellite data through the ISRO's National Remote Sensing Centre's Open Earth Observation Data Archive situated at different cities of India.

The satellite data of Indian cities and terrain can be accessed by users from the link provided at www.bhuvan.nrsc.gov.in or http://bhuvan-noeda.nrsc.gov.in.
