Google Keep on Android Wear is great but if you have multiple accounts on your phone it only shows items from the active one.

A few weeks ago we launched Suggested Edits (http://goo.gl/OHJaJw) in Google Docs--a way to make edits that can be accepted or rejected by the owner of the document.

QR Codes and smartwatches, a match made in heaven

QR Codes are one of those things where you either love using them or they just don't seem to actually add any convenience to your life. The tech has been around for ages, and every time someone tries to breathe new life into this quick glance data delivery mechanism it seems to gain more and more of a following.

I love how this article mentions the very thing those people wanted to be forgotten. Will they now have to request the removal of this too?



I hope this goes on and on until the European court realise what a stupid ruling they made.



BTW if you want to see any of the stuff that is "forgotten" just search using google.com instead of .co.uk or whatever, it's all still there, not forgotten at all, just removed from Google's index for those of us unfortunate enough to fall under the European jurisdiction.
