Google has introduced a new feature yesterday from their laboratory for image search it’s Search for similar images.

As the name itself implies that this feature allows us to find more similar images based on a image appear on search result.

Google Normal Image Search

Google Similar Images Search

For an example if you are looking for a picture of a sea shore and from the results you like a sea shore. Now just click on the image you will see as shown in the screen shot given below.

By using similar images link that appears just below the picture, you can search for more that are similar to the selected image. This new feature from the Google labs is a very fun and very useful, am i right? I played with the service in approximately for an hour with the Seven Wonders of the World, and most of the time, photos are very similar results.

This is certainly a another great feature in Google Image Search from Google labs and soon we can except this feature in the major image search….

One of the most requested Google features is adding task management to Gmail or Google Calendar. This feature is now available as part of Gmail Labs and I predict that this will be the most popular experimental feature.

After enabling tasks, you can access this feature in two ways: either click on the “Tasks” link below “Contacts” to open a Gmail Chat-like dialog or create a task from an email by opening “More Actions” drop-down and selecting “Add to Tasks”. When you convert an email to a task, Gmail keeps the message’s subject and places a link to the mail.

Tasks can be reordered using drag&drop, you can add due dates and notes, but you can’t assign priorities, share your tasks or get reminders.

Here are some useful shortcuts in Gmail Tasks:
* Open the tasks box by typing g then k if you have keyboard shortcuts enabled.
* Create a task from an email by pressing Shift+T if you have keyboard shortcuts enabled.
* Navigate between tasks using the arrows.
* Delete a task by deleting the text and hitting backspace.
* Organize your tasks by indenting them — just hit Tab to indent and Shift+Tab to un-indent.
* Ctrl+Up moves a task up the list and Ctrl+Down move it down.
* Hit Shift+Enter when in a task to show its details

Remember the Milk is still a much better service and its clean interface and the integration with Google’s services (Gmail, Google Calendar, iGoogle, Gears) make you think it was created by Google. Gmail Tasks is a feature of Gmail Labs, the place where Gmail engineers try new ideas to get early feedback. “None of these features are really ready for prime time yet, so they may change, break or disappear at any time.”

When this features comes out of Labs we should expect some integration with Calendar, notifications, sharing and sync options. I think that Google’s task management belongs to Google Calendar, where most of these features are already available.

After adding street-level imagery for Australia, Japan, Spain, France, Italy, and New Zealand, Google’s mission for the US is almost completed. “Today marks our biggest launch of Street View imagery to date: we’re doubling our coverage in the United States. Several states — Maine, West Virginia, North Dakota, and South Dakota — will be getting the Street View treatment for the first time. We’ve also added imagery for Memphis, Charleston (SC), and Birmingham, and we’ve filled in lots of gaps across the country,” explains Google’s blog.

Are .EDU and .GOV backlinks really that important for the search engine optimization of a website? That simple question has spawned an ongoing dispute amongst bloggers and SEO enthusiasts that may never be completely resolved. Either way, some people feel that having incoming links from .EDU and .GOV domains is important. Therefore they desire to seek out potential bogging buddies who host their blogs on these sought after domains. Special or not, one thing is for sure… more backlinks can’t hurt.

I’ve seen a bunch of other bloggers list ideas on how to find .EDU and .GOV blogs by utilizing advanced search queries in the popular search engines. Some of the search queries I’ve seen listed are useful, but many seem to create an extensive list of false positives (i.e. websites that are not blogs or blogs with closed comments). To combat this, I’ve tweaked out a few queries to make them more accurate. While the queries certainly aren’t perfect, they do take you to .EDU and .GOV domains that are actually hosting blogs with visitor comment capabilities.

I use Google for all of my web searching endeavors, so that’s what I use to find potential .EDU and .GOV backlink blogs. Be aware that there are numerous syntax variations for search queries capable of finding these blogs. There are 2 different search methods that I use for this task. Listed below are a few of the queries I find most efficient… grouped according to the search method used.

Find .EDU and .GOV backlinks based on the typical URL structure of the most popular blog management software (i.e. Wordpress):

Here are 3 Google search queries that target .EDU and .GOV domains hosting the main wordpress login file “wp-login.php” or the Wordpress admin path “/wp-admin/”, which means the domain hosts a blog. All 3 of these queries take you to a Wordpress login page where you will find a link back to the main blog’s homepage.

• site:.edu inurl:wp-login.php +blog
• site:.gov inurl:wp-login.php +blog
• site:.edu inurl:”wp-admin” +login

Search for .EDU and .GOV backlinks based on textual keyword combinations that are typically found on blogs:

These 3 Google search queries take you directly to the main blog pages by searching for .EDU and .GOV domains containing the terms “no comments” and “blogroll” which are keywords commonly found on blogs. We also ignore the results that contain keyword phrases suggesting that blog visitor comments are not accepted. You can mess around with different sets of the keywords for additional search results.

• site:.edu “no comments” +blogroll -”posting closed” -”you must be logged in” -”comments are closed”
• site:.gov “no comments” +blogroll -”posting closed” -”you must be logged in” -”comments are closed”
• inurl:(edu|gov) “no comments” +blogroll -”posting closed” -”you must be logged in” -”comments are closed”

Daily Blog Tips suggests the following Google search query as another option. However, it limits the number of search results by requiring the URL to contain the term “blog”. It’s not any better or worst than the queries listed above, it’s just another method of attack. The best results will be achieved by using a combination of the various suggested methods. Notice the use of a trailing “keyword” in their query. Obviously this trailing keyword can be applied to the other search queries listed above for added search result filtering. For example, a keyword containing “2007? helps eliminate old inactive blogs.

• site:.edu inurl:blog “comment” -”you must be logged in” -”posting closed” -”comment closed” “keyword”

That about wraps it up. If you have found a better alternative… please let us know.

When friends push friends onto Gmail, it usually involves talking up the seemingly limitless storage space, the fast-moving interface, or its inter-connectedness with other Google applications, like Calendar. Those features are all fine and good, but Gmail does a lot of helpful things that some users never get to dig into. From one short web address, you can video chat Skype-style with contacts, ensure you didn’t leave yourself logged in elsewhere, help mom gradually migrate from her old dial-up-era email address, and pluck a single message out of tens of thousands. Let’s dig in and take a look at Gmail’s less-touted features for power users.

10. Change Gmail’s look entirely with themes.

Adam did the yeoman’s work of compiling screenshots and thumbnails of Gmail’s new Themes, accessible through a Settings tab, and one can see that they’re more than just a font switch and background image. Gmail’s themes cover a nice range of aesthetic choices, geekiness, cute-overload, elegant color tweaks, and, for those who put a lot of time in on the screen, dark-themed schemes. If you haven’t checked them out yet, they’re certainly worth a look, if only to give your eyes a rest from all the variants of light blue.

9. Launch video and audio chats, no Skype required.

It’s Windows-only at this point, and still requires a little browser plug-in, but it’s surprising how little fanfare Gmail’s native video chat application has received. It’s comparable quality to most software-based solutions, it’s got a full-screen mode, and, well, if the person’s not all that intriguing, you can minimize them and get back to your email.

8. Back up your email from any system.

Just because Google wants you to put your digital life in the cloud doesn’t mean you can’t have your own copy of your own messages and attachments. There are lots of ways to get your entire Gmail dump onto your desktop. We’re currently into Gmail Backup, which is graphical for Windows and command line for Linux and Mac OS X. You can also grab it with the command-line-based Fetchmail, grab them via POP with Thunderbird, or use the web-based StashMyMail for 99 cents, if you don’t mind the third-party-ness of it. To back up another email account using Gmail’s generous storage space, you can always BCC: your outgoing messages to a Gmail account to make sure you’ve always got an online searchable copy of your mail.

7. See all the places where you’re signed in, and remotely sign out.

Friends’ and significant others’ computers, work, public terminals—people sign into Gmail from all kinds of places, and don’t always remember to hit that privacy-ensuring “Sign Out” in the upper-right corner. At the very bottom of any Gmail inbox, though, is a text line showing where else the account is open, along with a list of sign-in times and IP addresses and a button that signs you out of everything but the browser you’re in right then. No need to worry, then, that your friends’ willpower will ever be tested by discovering you’re still signed in on their system.

6. Serve as a central, synchronized, smarter contact list.

Used to be that Gmail put everyone you sent five emails to went into your contacts, but they’ve wised up and created two lists: Your true contacts, and those oft-mailed but not well-known folks into “Suggested” contacts. That makes Google a much nicer, cleaner place to sync your computers and devices from. Mac users can pull Google Contacts into their Address Book with or without an iPhone, Blackberry owners can hook up too, and fans of Thunderbird have got their own tool as well. Oh, and the Google-centric Android platform does it too, of course.

5. Consolidate all your email accounts.

Gmail eliminates the need to ever have to send one of those very late, apologetic “Don’t check this email often” replies from your ancient accounts. Gina’s explained how straightforward it is to consolidate multiple email addresses into Gmail, with full importing of messages from any POP or IMAP-compliant account (almost all of them are) and the ability to keep sending emails from your old address, eliminating the need for mass pleas to update address books.

4. Help friends find their own Gmail messages or bookmark your own.

“You honestly do not have my email explaining how to take care of my dogs and disable the alarm system? Okay, no, it’s no big thing, Steve. Hit this link, it should take you to the right message: http://mail.google.com/mail/#search/buster+alarm+code+Pedigree” That kind of universal search link is pretty helpful, but the addresses of any email you open in Gmail are also permalinks for the account owner, meaning you can create lists of emails you need to get back to, bookmark an important thread in your browser favorites, and save them for any other purpose or list.

3. Keep your Gmail account(s) on your desktop.

More than one of the Lifehacker editors had gotten used to keeping Gmail and Lifehacker’s Google Apps email open in two browser tabs, clicking over when a new message hit the title bar. With the just-launched Google Desktop Gadget, though, all the basic actions of email—read, star, label, delete, respond—can fit into a corner of your desktop. If you’re good with Gmail’s keyboard shortcuts, the gadget works with those, too, and can be opened in multiple instances for different accounts. Pretty neat stuff, but if it’s not worth installing the whole Google Desktop suite for, check out the other ways our readers get their Gmail notifications.

2. Give you total search power.

It’s easy to forget that the company providing Gmail is, by and large, a search specialist, and has given its webmail app some serious search, filter, and organization tools. Don’t waste time scrolling through page after page of your mom’s email—find that one email she sent a few months back, with the attached JPEG file and mentioning that cat, Mr. Nibbles or Snibbles or whatnot–from:Stacey after:2008/09/01 has:attachment (nibbles OR snibbles). You can start at learning the basic operators, then take Adam’s tips on building advanced filters and persistent searches

1. Do much, much more with Gmail Labs experimental features.

It started out as a modest set of tweaks and small Oh Neat items, but Gmail’s Labs section has become a powerhouse of email features. From Labs’ increasingly-long list of tools, you can set up canned responses for standard replies, stop yourself from forgetting attachments, get your Google Calendar agenda and Remember the Milk tasks, get at all your various attachment types with Quick Links, and many, many more tweaks. Labs isn’t particularly hidden away or obscure, but if you haven’t taken the time to scroll down the list of options, you’re almost certainly missing out on something that makes your webmail home a bit more comfortable.

Those are our picks for ten tricks that Gmail pulls off without a lot of praise, but everyone uses their webmail differently. Let’s hear your own hidden (or obvious) Gmail tricks and glad-hands in the comments.
