September 8, 2020 by Sangalang Kristine

Anyone using Google Image Search tools will immediately notice that the search engine has created a significant update on its filter options. Copyright law protects the interests of artists, photographers, and owners of original works.

June 30, 2020 by Sangalang Kristine

Google search users partaking in the company’s iPhone and Android apps now have the option to arrange business results by star rating, distance and only businesses that are open at the time of the search (great for that late night snack).

Users can choose to use a variety of filter results, for example you could find a 4 star restaurant that’s open at 10pm in Chicago.

Myspace CEO Mike Jones has announced that the company will attempt to sell the failing company before it’s too late to salvage.

If a sale doesn’t occur, Myspace’s Rosabel Tao tells Bloomberg:

“News Corp. is assessing a number of possibilities including a sale, a merger and a spinout [sic]. The process has just started.”
