Smart homes? Google is doubling down on smart gnomes. The Google Gnome device will give homeowners the “connected yard” of their dreams. Just walk outside and speak your command, and Google’s army of helper gnomes will come to the rescue. You can find the device in the Google Store or the Made by Google site.
Google Maps
If you don’t need to get to your destination in a hurry, Google Maps added a Ms. Pac-Man mode to further distract you from your task at hand. To play, open your Google Maps app and click on the pink Ms. Pac-Man icon on the right side of the screen. The idea is recycled from 2015’s Pac-Man integration, but hey, if it isn’t broke, then don’t fix it.
Chegg
Education technology company has released a new energy drink called “Chugg.” Powered by “a crap ton of caffeine” and “ground up unicorn horns,” alleged testimonials claim you can down this drink, not sleep for 72 hours and write an entire thesis.
Ok, Honda isn’t a tech company, but this is pretty good. Instead of your standard honk, “Honda Horn Emojis” will play a themed tune appropriately tied to a illustrated expression button on your steering wheel.
