- The official blog offers an entry named more transparency and control over location, in short: "Today we’re moving your location setting to the left-hand panel of the results page to make it easier for you to see and control your preferences."
- The official Google LatLong blog has an entry on historical imagery: "There are history books, movies, and photographs, but they portray isolated places and events more than the connected whole.
