Official Blog
Insights from Googlers into our products, technology, and the Google culture
Now, read us in gadget form
September 21, 2008
Our corporate blog network is more than four years old now. We offer blogs about Google products and initiatives, local blogs (for 11 countries), blogs for advertisers and publishers, and a stable of blogs for developers. We hope you find the contents to be informative, timely, and, on occasion, fun.
To help you keep track of our news and updates more easily, we've created a new
Blog Directory
(which links from the main page on this blog) and an
iGoogle gadget
so you can stay current right from your dashboard. If you'd prefer to read recent posts by category, install our
iGoogle blog tab
(the customizable tab will load upon clicking), which will always show you the most recent blog updates by categories such as 'Open Source,' 'Mobile' or 'Publishers.' There are 16 categories, so you can pick and choose which ones to keep on your page after adding.
Software engineer Derek Collison built the gadget using the
AJAX APIs
. The current version is in beta; we plan to use the
Language API
to roll out translations for the blogs in 13 languages other than English and add new interface and navigation options. Developer Ben Lisbakken built the tab, and webmaster extraordinaire Champika Fernando built the directory with help from graphic designer Ryan Germick. A heartfelt thanks for all of their contributions in making our blog family more 'universally accessible and useful.'
