YouTube Gaming was announced by Google on 26 August and ever since they are battling with Twitch.TV for the supremacy of live streaming video games. For now things are calm, Twitch is still “owning” YouTube Gaming as it should be(Kappa), but now Google has launched the first big update for their live streaming platform with some new interesting features.

You can now watch the broadcast later with the Watch Later feature and you can port your gaming related subscriptions with the new import tool.

But the bigger upgrade is that you can now stream your mobile games on YouTube Gaming. Twitch did the same thing and it did not go that well, maybe because nobody wants to see a mobile game live stream.

As people usually get bored while playing mobile games, why should they waste time watching others do the same. YouTube Gaming and Twitch.tv please stop this nonsense!
Other features include the ability to support your favorite streamers by tapping $ to choose how much to tip the streamer and faster discovery of live streams for games that are in your collection.

With the Live Screencasting and Recording you can record your mobile screen and if you want to, you can live stream it for your fans. To start a recording session you need to open the YouTube Gaming app, go to your profile by clicking on your profile picture and click Go Live. After that you will have to choose between Record or Stream, choose the video quality (480p or 720p) and the app/game you want to record. Before you begin you have the chance to add a name and a description for your recording or streaming session.

All in all, Google is bringing improvements to its YouTube Gaming Service and it is starting to equally compete with Twitch.tv, which I’m curious with what new updates it will come up as a response to YouTube Gaming’s new features.

Who doesn’t enjoy listening to a good story. Personally I love reading about the people who inspire me and what it took for them to achieve their success. As I am a bit of a self confessed tech geek I think there is no better way to discover these stories than by reading every day some articles or the newspaper . My bookcases are filled with good tech biographies, they remind me that anyone can be a success. So even if you come from an underprivileged part of society or you aren’t the smartest person in the room we all have a chance to reach the top. The same message shines in my beliefs. All it takes to succeed is a good idea, a little risk and a lot of hard work and any geek can become a success. VENI VIDI VICI .

Google has recently used CES as a platform to present its philosophy of “Better Together,” the notion that all devices should get along with one another. Typically, this entails making announcements regarding new Cast compatibility and features like Fast Pair. The business revealed that it is collaborating with Spotify to incorporate the Connect streaming capability into the Android UI at CES 2023. Additionally, it showed a sneak peek at an audio handoff tool that would recommend various devices to shift your music to based on your preferences and location.

However, CES is a significant vehicle event, and Google also sells items for cars. Additionally, it said today that the Polestar 3 would receive its higher-resolution maps, and it debuted the most recent Android Auto user interface for the first time since it was revealed at I/O 2022.

Two vehicles, a Volvo EX90 with Google preinstalled and a BMW i7 with the new Android Auto experience, were at the Google stand in the trailer lot of the Las Vegas Convention Center. We had never seen the Volvo before, and we’ll be posting a separate hands-on on that experience shortly. The new Android Auto is the main topic of this article and video.

The redesigned interface will support larger screen sizes and have a split screen layout, as we discovered at I/O. Google has eliminated the status bar and inserted a row of shortcut keys below it, along with some indication icons in a small area to the top left. When we were in the car, the Spotify app was located on the left panel, and we could access a list of suggested playlists by swiping in from the right side.

Alerts that you won’t have time to respond to while driving are likewise stored in this left pane. For instance, you can swipe right on a notification to move it to the dock, where it will wait until you’re ready to deal with it.

Check out the video up top for more of our experience with the updated Android Auto in the BMW i7! And be sure to pay attention this week as there will be a ton of news at CES 2023.
