A few years ago, researchers reported the discovery of some underwater plants that they believe have been alive for thousands of years. The plants are of the species Posidonia oceanica, a type of seagrass that covers the Mediterranean seabed between spain and Cyprus.
If plants can leave to that amazing age, what about humans? Some scientists who study aging are optimistic about the prospect of an extended life span. Developments are still ongoing without any impact yet though.
Offline search and navigation was one of the biggest announcements at I/O this May — and now, nearly six months later, that feature is finally reaching users. Today, Google Maps will roll out a new offline mode allowing for driving directions and search. It’s designed to fit seamlessly alongside the online version of Maps, allowing data connection to drop in and out without interrupting the app itself. The new features will begin rolling out to Android users later today, and Google says the iOS rollout will follow “soon.”
