Google is introducing a new feature called the Plus Codes, which would allow users to share their location. The Plus Codes are an alphanumeric version of your address. the feature is currently available for Android users and to get the feature, users are required to download the latest version of the Google Maps from Play Store.
Google makes it easier for people to share addresses on Google Maps, even when you don’t have the address. Imagine getting stuck at a location you know nothing about, well the plus codes will now help you share your location. In other words, the Plus Codes are an alphanumeric version of your address.
With Plus Codes, users are not required to reveal their complete address, they can simply share the unique codes with either their delivery boy or their cab drivers. People who are familiar with Google Maps can tap on the blue dot that shows their current location. To get the Plus Code of your location simply tap on the blue doth that denotes your address. Once you get the code, you can share it with anybody just like you share other stuff such as pictures or phone numbers. You can either search the code on Google Maps or Google Search it to reach the location, without having to type out the entire address, you can also find the Plus Code for a location by tapping and holding the map to drop a pin at a location you want a Plus Code.
The feature is currently available for Android users and to get the feature, users are required to download the latest version of the Google Maps from Play Store

Why fear about Whatsapp privacy policy.?

Many YouTubers have created insane fears that "WhatsApp will not work, do not use WhatsApp" to increase views. This is to give a little courage to those who are afraid to look at them.

WhatsApp is making such a complete system available. Actually this is going to happen ... Suppose you went to a shopping mall. While shopping and billing t

Facebook Buildding a hidden Feature, to teach us more about ourselves. This may lock trolls and scams.

Facebook wants to stop people from abusing its system, so it's creating a world of bots that can mimic them. To test the platform, the company's researchers released a paper on "Web Enabled Simulation" (WES) - basically a shadow Facebook where users who don't have a human eye want to share, or friend (or harass, abuse and scam). Facebook describes building a scaled-down, wall-off simulation of its platform, with fake users modeling different types of real behavior. For example, a "scammer" bot can be trained to connect with "target" bots that display similar behaviors to real-life Facebook scam victims. Other bots may be trained to attack fake users' privacy or search for "bad" content that violates Facebook rules. It helps to detect Facebook bugs. Researchers can build WES users, whose sole purpose is to steal information from other bots, and keep them loose in the system. If they suddenly find ways to access mor
