Apple Expected to Buy HopStop

Let's face the fact. Apple introduced Maps application which has been a total disaster. The application is still not as good as Google Maps and you may end up somewhere else rather than your desired destination. It has been revealed that Apple is planning to buy the navigation tool HopStop in order to improve their maps application. Apple also purchased Locationary, a company said to be the Wikipedia for companies. The news emerges from sources who wish to be anonymous as the deal is not yet final.

It has been a few days since Google rolled out the new Gmail tabbed interface. Many have been in the favor while many don't like the newly introduced interface. Recently, Google announced that it will roll out a new full screen compose window for Gmail.

You can click on the popup button to use it as a separate window but many users prefer to work in the same tab with a full screen compose windows, as it gives them more room to write emails.
