Aside from the other updates Google has been making available, they've also set everyone up with a new version of Google Goggles, bringing the app up to version 1.7. In this version, they've add some new features to make the experience better:
- Continuous Mode allows you to use Goggles without pressing the shutter button
- Goggles can recognize text in a document and return a link to its online version. Try it on your favorite newspaper!
- You can help Goggles recognize more objects. Tap on 'Do you have a better suggestion' in the Goggles results page.
- Google Goggles will now show user submitted results in the search results page.
The continuous mode should be a great addition for anyone who uses Google Goggles a lot and the text recognition is just awesome, try it out for yourself -- pretty impressive! You'll find the download link past the break.
Also, Google Maps got itself a little bugfix, too. Go get 'em!
