What is the New Google Apps Infrastructure? What Google is doing is that it is integrating Google Apps with Google Accounts. Why? Because previously, Google Apps didn’t have all the Google services, which included important Google products like Google Reader, Google Adwords, Google Adsense and many more. And this has always been a nagging pet-peeve of almost all the Google Apps users. Hence Google decided to finally take care of that by integrating Google Apps with the main Google Accounts infrastructure....
However, last week I came across another note taking app on the Play Store that made me realize even the best apps aren’t perfect.

When Google released their Camera app with Lens Blur feature, the internet made a lot of noise. Yes, HTC and Sony already had such features in place but they were device exclusive....

But if you used a DSLR or any other camera with no GPS, these records are missing in your photos, so your Stories will not be that creative.
