2. NEW PRODUCTS & UPDATES
Project 10^100
As part of our 10th birthday celebration, we launched Project 10100 (that's "ten to the hundredth"), a call for ideas that could help as many people as possible, and a program to bring the best of those ideas to life. We're committing $10 million to implement these projects, and while money may offer a jump-start, it really comes down to the great ideas that we know are out there. We're accepting submissions until October 20, 2008, and then we'll open up voting in
January.

3.Updates to Picasa, Picasa Web Albums
There's a new version available of our photo editing software. Picasa 3.0 makes it even easier to share photos with friends and family, thanks to a new web sync feature that automatically keeps your web albums up-to-date with the photos on your PC. Picasa 3 also includes intuitive new editing tools, like a powerful retouching brush, text tool, movie maker and revamped photo collages. We've also updated Picasa Web Albums with "name tags" to help you automatically organize and share your photos by who's in each picture.

6.Transit on Google Maps for New York
New York City has about a third of the country's public transportation volume, and now Google Maps includes public transit information for the entire metro region, making this the biggest Transit launch for Google Maps to date. You can find Transit coverage for more than 70
cities and countries; we'll keep you posted as we add more to the mix.

6.MISCELLANY
September marked the first 10 years of Google, so we took a moment to reflect on the enormous impact the Internet has had on people's lives since our company's founding. The power of the Internet has changed the way we find, manage and share information -- and we believe it
will only continue to change the way we live. While we don't have a crystal ball to see exactly what the future holds, we asked a number of our in-house experts to share their thoughts on how this phenomenal technology will evolve in the next 10 years. You can read their
responses in a special blog series. We hope you're inspired by their ideas.
