Google demos new Google Maps on Nexus S

December 11, 2010

Google have released a demo video [2:28] of Google Maps 5 on the upcoming and much anticipated Nexus S. The Nexus S is the first phone to run Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), which was released at the start of this week.

Google Maps 5 includes many welcome features like offline map support, and the migration of some map rendering to the phone itself instead of on Google’s servers, increasing map performance. The update also includes some new multi-touch gestures and 3D buildings.

The Nexus S will be released on the UK on December 20th, 2010. However, an Irish release date has not yet been published.

Brains Byte Back

Brains Byte Back interviews startups, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders that tap into how our brains work. We explore how knowledge & technology intersect to build a better, more sustainable future for humanity. If you’re interested in ideas that push the needle, and future-proofing yourself for the new information age, join us every Friday. Brains Byte Back guests include founders, CEOs, and other influential individuals making a big difference in society, with past guest speakers such as New York Times journalists, MIT Professors, and C-suite executives of Fortune 500 companies.

In this episode of Brains Byte Back, we visit a pressing issue: over-tourism and its impact on our planet. From the wildfires devastating Canada’s forests to the historic and deadly flooding in Valencia, the consequences of global warming are undeniable. And tourism, while a vital economic driver, often amplifies these challenges—putting immense pressure on fragile ecosystems, local resources, and cultural landmarks.

To help us navigate these complexities, we’re joined by Aradhana Khowala, an expert in regenerative travel and sustainable tourism. The CEO and founder of Aptamind Partners brings unparalleled insights into how the tourism industry, often seen as a contributor to environmental strain, can instead be leveraged as a force for good.

Together, we explore innovative approaches to address over-tourism.

So, whether you’re a globetrotter, an environmental advocate, or simply curious about how technology and creativity can shape the future of travel, this episode is for you.

Join us as we imagine a future where travel enriches both the traveler and the destination—right here on Brains Byte Back.Find out more about Aradhana Khowala here (Linkedin) –
