Above all, Google is about search--it's embedded in nearly all of their products. Even in 2010, Google continues to push search and constantly re-invents the way we find things. Their newest feature? Search optimized by our location. This allows Google to bring more relevant suggestions to the users and in the end, better results for us.
Searching through Google on your Android phone (or iPhone) will allow you to access this feature. Google uses your current or last location to determine more pertinent results.
For example, when users in the Boston metro area begin typing "Muse", suggestions such as "museum of science boston" and "museum of fine arts boston" are provided because people near Boston frequently look for these very popular museums. On the other hand, users in San Francisco who begin their query with "Muse" will see suggestions for museums in the San Francisco area.
We think it's a great addition to Google. What about you?
