Google Buzz was launched some days ago and Every one is talking about it, now here is official Google Buzz Widget For Android power mobile, Google announced this news for Android mobile user.
The widget will sit on your screen and let you quickly upload text or a picture that can be geo-tagged. You can still access buzz through the browser or via Google Maps.
Features:
Display buzzes as a bar with transition effects or as a fixed list.
Many transition options like opacity, height, font-size.
Each part of the buzz -like links, dates- has its own class for easy CSS customization.
Show or hide some parts of the buzz like date, source.
Use a typical JS call or auto-load div elements that have “google-buzz” class.
Widget adds a small “i” letter that links to the widget page. You can remove it by setting (info) option to empty string (”), but I’ll appreciate it if you attribute me elsewhere on your website.
By default, widget displays the snippet version of a buzz. which fits for a small and fixed placeholder. Still, you can choose to display the complete content of the buzz.
Google Maps has been updated to 4.1. Users with Android 1.6 and higher devices can get the latest update,It comes with a couple of new useful features:
New features include:
Updated search results page: The detailed search page got a major face life. New buttons have been added for map view, navigate, call, and street view. The reviews area has a slick looking colored chart to display star ratings and you can easily buzz about any place.
Swipe for more results: The tabs are now gone from the search results page and users can easily swipe between places. The scrolling is super smooth on my N1 and it has a nice feel as results snap over.
Latitude widget and Maps live wallpaper: I guess this is more eye candy than usefulness. The new Maps live wallpaper allows you to view live traffic on your homescreen. The Latitude widget shows updates for friends around your location.
Switch Google Accounts: Android 2.0 added support for multiple accounts and now you can switch them from within maps. This allows you to easily manage multiple identities.
Dark Map for Buzz: A new layer that darkens the map and makes buzz posts glow red.
More Ads: I don’t know if this is a new “feature” or not, but I am noticing a ton of new sponsored ads through out Google Maps when I perform a search. I think this started around version 3.4, but they definitely have more advertisers signed up now.
Just search for Google Maps in the Android Market, to download the version 4.1.

Multitouch feature in Nexus One is little ambiguous, as both the hardware(HTC) and OS(Android) of phone fully support multitouch functionality, it’s also possible that multitouch feature may or mayn’t be available on handsets being sold in US, like Motorola released separate version of Motorola Driod for European countries and other countries, European version of Droid also don’t support multitouch functionality.

Google Maps India has launched driving directions feature enabling users to look for directions on the map. The feature was first introduced in Mapmaker (around Feb timeframe) and the same is now available on Google Maps.
In India, Google has collected good landmark data through user-created “Points of Interest” in Google Map Maker. Google’s new algorithm determines which of these landmarks are most useful for navigation, based on importance, and closeness to the turns that the user is making and other available signals. With this launch, Google will now combine landmark data, counted turns (“the 2nd right”), intersection names, and road names, and try to use whatever information is most relevant and useful.
Google is providing two kinds of landmarks, to identify where users need to turn, and to provide confirmation that they’re on the right track. Google also encourages users to help make directions even better for millions of users in India by enriching landmarks data via Google Map Maker.
