Google Event On Thursday To Introduce Cool New Mobile Features

Google has begun sending out invites for a Google Mobile event that will be held this Thursday, August 12th, promising to “unveil a couple of cool new mobile features”. No details of what would be announced were mentioned, but speculation is that it could be a native video calling feature for Android, which could be a response to Apple’s FaceTime video chat for the iPhone 4. Video calling is already available on Android today, but via third-party apps such as Qik and Fring. Other users also suggest that it may be a clone of the Find My iPhone feature from Apple, which allows users to track, lock-down, or wipe a lost handset. Either way, we only have to wait a short while more to find out what Google has in store for us.
