Australians Are Still Second-Class Citizens In Android Jelly Bean
There are lots of great new features in Android Jelly Bean. It’s just a huge pity that a large majority aren’t going to work in Australia when we first get our hands on a device running Android 4.1 at some point in mid-July when the Nexus 7 tablet launches here..
Google+ Adds Tablet Apps, Photo-Rich Event Creation
Google’s social network Google+ gained a few upgrades today at Google IO, particularly in the form of native tablet apps for both Android and iPad and in how you participate in events. The tablet apps are essentially larger versions of what you’d find in Google+ on your smartphones but with support for larger screen sizes, including the new iPad’s retina display). Android users get the update today, but iPad owners will have to wait until it comes “soon.”
Interact With Your Friends’ Google+ Status Updates from Inside Gmail
Google has been slowly rolling out new features and closer integration between all of its products and Google+, and yesterday it was Gmail’s turn to get a few updates.

Google+ Gets Navigation Customisation, Cleaner Discussions And More

We spend an awful lot of time using social networks to keep up with people, discover news, and bring new functionality to our favourite apps, but they can get cluttered pretty quickly (not to mention destroy your privacy if you aren’t careful). This weekend, take some time to clean up, organise and re-privatise your Facebook, Twitter and Google+ accounts.
Google+ Hangouts Get Its Own Apps
Google+ Hangouts are great for straight-up talking, and they have some productive features, too. Now the gates are open to third-party apps to enhance the platform. The first batch is mostly games and goofiness, but two tools stand out.
