Google Ngram ViewerGoogle's Ngram Viewer lets you search keywords in millions of books over the span of half a millennium, a useful tool for finding trends over time. For power users, the Ngram Viewer also has advanced options, such as searching for particular keywords as specific parts of speech or combining keywords...... http://mashable.com/2013/07/05/google-tools/#gallery/14-google-tools-you-didnt-know-existed/51d5dfb5b589e45ed10058b1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 There will soon be a Google app that will scan the underwear drawers of most people in the Northern Hemisphere and determine by process of elimination what color undies any individual is wearing at any given time. An extension of the app called Google Streak View will also be able to show whether that person wiped thoroughly or not. You'll need to have Adobe Flush enabled to use that feature, though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zlim Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) So how come I go here http://www.google.com/fonts/ and everything looks the same? other than the 8th sample being italic, there is no difference. It doesn't look at all like the screenshot here http://mashable.com/...589e45ed10058b1 at #10. Edited July 31, 2013 by zlim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using FF, Liz, and have your preferences set (as I do) so that websites only display with YOUR CHOICE of font styles, then you won't see different fonts on webpages. FF Prefs > Content tab > Fonts and Colors > Advanced > check the box that says "Allow sites to use their own fonts..." or something to that effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zlim Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 It is checked and on two computers (XP and 7) I still see no difference in any of the fonts. Clearly, something else is going on for me and my computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
