Introducing Google Nose



The first and the most hilarious is the launch of Google Nose. With the tagline – Smelling is Believing, Google brings the sense of smell to a search engine. According to the product description, Google Nose is still in Beta stage and has compiled the smells from all across using Google Maps. According to Google: Google NoseBETA leverages new and existing technologies to offer the sharpest olfactory experience available. The Google Nose experience imbibes Street Sense as vehicles have inhaled and indexed millions of atmospheric miles. But how will Google present this olfactory experience to you? Simple, using Android Ambient Odour Detection which will let Google collect smells from all over the world. Google has also taken the opportunity to call their Android operating system ‘The most sensible in the world’ via the April 1 jest.

The experience is brought to Google Foodles, the doodles which incorporate some food element; Google Books, smell the old books or the smell of books fresh from the print using ‘Scratch-and-sniff technology; Self-driving new car smell and also for Google Adverts! You can search for anything and smell it on Google Search using Google Nose. Google Nose also promises some tools using which you can turn off the smell. Now you don’t want to be googling rotten eggs and have the smell waft up, do you?
This is the Nice trick by google for the Apirl 1st ..
