Did they ask permission from Enix to use their music and sound effects?

Tap it in the morning, tap it at night, tap it in the bathroom. LOL

edit: oh wow, if you try the multitask mode for long enough, they try to pull a modern version of this on you:

[Newbian]

I am sad they didn't encounter a slime in the maps one while they were walking around.

 

[KidNiki1]

They would have been better off spending the time making Google+ not suck.

Are we a little bitter this morning? Somebody pissed in you bowl of cornflakes?

 

[Number1]

I thought the Lowe's bacon scented HVAC air filters was pretty good.

I can get so much more work done.
For Mac users, you can dick around more.

Mea Culpa. My apologies to foghorn67 and to Eli and eliu who losts posts in the process. Not so much to dwell, DixyCrat and Mike Gayner who lost threadcraps.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use

They credit Square Enix in the beginning of the clip, only use a "small amount," is not for profit and used for comedy / humor. IANL but looks pretty covered to me.

 

[Red Squirrel]

These are hilarious!

The nascar one. LOL

 

[blinblue]

I actually kinda want Gmail Tap. They should make it available

 

[clamum]

Wow, I only watched the first two (8 bit Google maps and the Morse Code one) but hilarious stuff. :awe:

 

[Red Squirrel]

I was thinking the same, I think they're on to something. Just have to learn morse code and you can chat so much faster. :biggrin:

wtf fair use what is that

 

[Mr. Pedantic]

Love the NES Google Maps

It's a pity they couldn't do 8-bit Street View. That would have been awesome.

EDIT: No, wait, they did! Wow!

That shouldn't be too difficult to make. You just need to translate Morse code to ASCII. They're implementation is too bloated anyway. They use twice as many keys as necessary :^D

Yup, go check out your house in 8-bit. Outstanding.

Fair use is an obsolete rule as far as the US government is concerned. But Google is a big company, so they can get away with it anyway.

 

[skyking]

really liked the search by odor option
