Google has decided to close Aardvark.
I hope that they wouldn't.
Aardvark is a service that allows you ask a question and the system would refer it to a person (volunteer) that reported to have knowledge about the subject.
This system works best for question that a human would answer better than any Google search.
Let's hope that Google would use this technology in their searches someday, if they kill the project after all.

New GWT Tools
Google has brought out some very elaborate tools for web development. Developing these tools must have required considerate effort and money. Why would a company develop these tools and deliver them for free?
My guess is that these tools are designed to come in complement with Chrome Apps store and intended for the coming Chrome OS.

New Mail for Exchange breaks Google Sync support
Nokia has never officially supported Mail for Exchange for use with Google Sync, however even without the official support, it worked. Unfortunately with the introduction of Mail for Exchange 3.0, syncing mail does not work anymore with Google Sync.
Google, obviously do not use MS Exchange, rather they provided with their own implementation of the protocol, possibly buggy and/or incomplete.
Nokia on their side point at Google that their implementation is incompatible, meanwhile made the previous working version unavailable, probably wanting to favor their Symbian over Android and crappy Ovi service over Google's.
Google on their side, do nothing, and being Google, probably do not care too much, and/or do not want to promote Symbian.
So here, users of Google services with Nokia devices are left out in the cold, without support from neither company.
Good work, Nokia and Google.
P.S.
My local Nokia representative was kind enough to provide me with a last working version (2.9.158) of Mail For Exchange for my device.
