Google+ will be getting a nice little UI overhaul later today, as well as adding 41 additional features.

This probably won’t be the last rumour you hear before the start of Google I/O but it is definitely one of the more interesting ones so far and doesn’t involve the Moto X Phone. There is a rumour circulating that Samsung and Google have been knocking boots to create a Galaxy S4 with stock...

YouTube user JLishere has created an extensive video using Google Now on an early build of Jelly Bean. It not only shows how great the app is, but includes a lot of commands you can give to it and a few things to come like deactivating Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and most likely a lot of other device options....
