Google Mobile Adds Product Idea Page
imagery, mapmaking, mobile, navigation, off topic, privacy/security January 5th, 2009Google recently announced a site for user-generated product ideas for Google Mobile. A nice feature of the site is the ability to view and rate the ideas of others, with the most popular ideas sorted to the top. Not surprisingly, many of the ideas are map related.
“Whether you’ve got a great idea about Google Maps for Mobile or there’s just one small issue Gmail for Mobile that bugs you, now’s your chance to share. See what others have to say and vote up the ideas you like the most. We’ll be checking in from time to time to see what you have to say, and will be giving updates on what we see in our Product Ideas Blog.”
The new site was announced in a Blog post dated Dec. 31, and as of today there’s input from 5,478 people with 1,700 ideas and more than 92,000 votes. Obviously there’s a lot of interest in directing Google’s path to application development, and this open forum provides a good means to filter the products of greatest interest.
