Today's Story Highlights

Google+ Helps Prolific Photogs Tell Short Stories
Many shutterbugs are familiar with this bugaboo: They shoot scads of
photos of a vacation or event, but they never find the time to put the
pics in a form where they can be shared with friends and family. Google
now has an app for that. It's called "Stories." Stories "can
automatically weave your photos, videos and the places you visited into
a beautiful travelogue," said Google's Anil Sabharwal.

All Things Appy: 5 Best Firefox Themes
If you're a daily Internet user, there's a good chance that you're also
a daily Internet browser user. If your choice is Firefox, you may be
tired of its look -- it hasn't changed much recently. However, Firefox
allows you to customize its background look with more than 300,000
themes. Plus, with complete themes, you can separately personalize the
address bar, buttons, menu, tabs and window frame.

Google's EU Migraine Rears Up
Yeah, about that breakthrough between Google and European antitrust
regulators... The European Union's antitrust chief might pursue a
tougher stance on Google than the one outlined in a February agreement,
which was believed to have end -- finally -- the legal circus between
the two sides. Google had agreed to display rivals' links more
prominently in its search results, a chief concern.

Facebook Gets Nosier Than Ever
Facebook recently made it easier to pry into your friends' private
affairs on the social network. Specifically, the Ask button -- which
already has been available to those seeking more information about many
other aspects of a given user's life -- now is an option when it comes
to a user's relationship status as well. If users choose to answer, the
information then is added to their profile.

The Inescapable Logic of Language Localization
Tailoring language translations for software documentation and GUIs can
make or break an open source project. Localizing language is a unique
undertaking, with a number of moving parts. The process of translating
language in releases for different target markets presents costly
cultural and language translation barriers that often are beyond the
financial abilities of the open source community.
