Google app for iOS gained keyboard shortcuts


This week’s update to the Google app for iOS adds keyboard shortcuts if you have a physical keyboard for your iPad. This is what I see if I press and hold the Command key on an Apple Smart Keyboard when viewing the default Google start screen. If you are in the search text box, Command L cancels the search.

Command L = Quick search

Command Y = Recent pages

Command O = Voice search

Irony: Google Reader Recommends My Defunct Blog to Me :-(

My full-time job until last week Friday (Mar. 20) was to serve as the Editor for MobileAppsToday.com and MobileDevicesToday.com. Both blogs were shut down last week and are currently redirecting to the still live MobileContentToday.com (which I contribute to as a freelance writer). So, I found it extremely ironic when Google Reader suggested I subscribe to MobileDevicesToday.
