Not-So-Googly Mondays: Tweeting Seat - Creepy or Cute?

The Tweeting Seat "records the users behavior whist he/she sits on the bench" and tweets to its followers (there's a camera on the bird's eye!). Creepy or cute? Would you sit on this bench?

Google Offices in Google Maps

Googly News has created a Google map in order to help prospective Google employees with the challenging task of choosing which office location is right for them. Whether they haven't chosen which location to apply to yet or already know but could use more information, this Google map can be of help!


The map was created using My Maps, and is a prototype (showing only offices located within the U.S.) of what a more dynamic map could look like. Do you have any ideas for how this prototype could be improved?  Googly News readers are certainly tech-savvy, so how would you have approached a project like this? What resources would you have used to create a similar map? Any ideas of what a more dynamic map could look like? Feedback is most definitely appreciated!

Googly News is excited to hear your input! The finished result will be posted on a subsequent article, so keep up-to-date and follow Googly News!
