Oh man, to have the life of Vic Gundotra. Not only does he get to help run and be privi’ed to the big secrets of all-powerful Google, but he gets to fly around in a Gulfstream Like a G6 with airplane mode off in true badass fashion and tease Android and Google lovers alike with what’s new in Googleland. At first glance, his latest tease on G+ looks just like the typical check out this cool sunset from the stratosphere while cruisin’ at 562 MPH in my G650 kinda pic. There’s something very different about it though.
If you look the top of the pic where it tells the details about when and how it was taken, you’ll notice (above the huge red arrow I added) that it’s from Snapseed. What’s Snapseed you ask? It’s an on-the-go photo editing app that blows the pants off of Facebook’s Instagram. It came with the purchase of Nik Software by Google a few weeks ago. Currently it’s only available on iOS (>.<) as well as Windows and Mac for its non-mobile version, not for long though. Naturally it makes sense that it be ported to Android after Google got its mitts on it and G+ integration would be a natural fit as Vic demonstrated. IMO, I’d expect a release of the app very soon and G+ integration to be implemented with the next G+ update.
