Google Maps has added a new list-making feature that lets users save locations to a specified list so that it can be accessed later — even offline — and shared with other users. To save a location in Google Maps, tap on its name and then the “Save” icon to add it to a list. Lists of saved places can be organized under preset lists Google has already named, like “Want to go” or “Favorites,” or users can create a new list. Google says lists can be shared by text and email, on social networks and via popular messaging apps.

Once you send a link to your out-of-towners, they can tap “Follow” to pull up the list from Your Places whenever they need it. Google posted the following video to show how the new feature work...

The search text field no longer has a box around it, and the left hand pane has a hint of translucency to it. This adds a little more visual interest. While Metro/MDL has long been assumed to...

A Forrester web content management Wave was released, summits were held and words of digital war were declared.  If you missed out on any of last month’s action, here are the latest open source CMS headlines. Hippo The latest Forrester Wave WCM report ensured January was a big month for Hippo, a BloomReach company, which was promoted to the “Strong Performer” category. Hippo’s rapid rise through the ranks is well worth discussing.  Throughout 2014, Hippo was nowhere to be seen on any Forrester Wave. A year later, it debuted in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant as a “Niche Player” before being bumped up to “Visionary” status in 2016. Today, Forrester places Hippo comfortably alongside the industry’s most revered names. DNN The DNN Summit was held in Denver from Jan. 18 to 23. Hundreds of DNN users attended the event, which is managed by volunte...
