what's good brian Tong here with all that Google issues it's everything google that we can pack inside of a show let's get to it in the g men and women are aiming directly at apple music with the announcement that they'll be adding a free tier to its google music play service now it will be an ad-supported radio option with stations curated by people so it's basically their answer to iTunes radio to be clear this does not give you the ability to create your own custom playlists and listen to them for free you'll still need to pay the 999 monthly fee to do that now the ad-supported radio is launching in the US it's available right now on the web and rolling out to android and iOS devices soon now that's not the only thing Google is up to this week the Google X team likes to just surprised us with one of their top secret projects they've been working on over the past couple years and this time it's a health tracking wristband that can monitor heart rate heart rhythm skin temperature and environmental conditions like light exposure and noise levels now sure there's plenty of smartwatches out there but Google's life sciences team hopes for this device to be eventually prescribed to patients or used in clinical trials with the medical grade information it can collect google says it's still in a very experimental phase alright sticking with wearables and android continues to pump out new bells and whistles for its users this time it's 17 new watch faces from brands like Rubik's Cube Angry Birds and my niece's favorite but one that I would never care about it all because it's you know it's too cutesy hello kitty now these are all available to download for free through the google play store google also recently announced a new effort to use the resources and technologies for what they're calling news lab it combines things like YouTube videos maps data Image Search and pulls from google trends which has been revamped and the new version was built specifically with journalists in mind it's an effort to really collaborate with journalists using google tools data and programs we all see how storytelling is constantly innovating thanks to tech and this is their way of being part of it at Google i/o one of the big reveals was project jump and the big G's commitment to bring in virtual reality to the mainstream by making it cheaper to produce content in it on YouTube the company now has a sign up if you're a creator who wants to be a part of this movement it requires you to fill out a long form and tell them how you currently use media and I'm just crossing my fingers that maybe they let someone who produces video content and allows them to get on board and try this out also Android TV isn't dead yes it's taken time to start rolling out new TV sets but Sony just announced their new 4k android TV based x 900 CCTVs with 55 and 65-inch configurations that start at twenty-five hundred dollars and if you've ever lost your cool or started writing out something really emotional that you wish you never sent and then you wish you could take it back but now it's too late when you told her and you can't take it back and things won't be the same well I haven't but gmail is finally making the undo send feature standard on gmail and it allows you to cancel the sending of an email within a specific number of seconds after it's sent now if you don't see it just go to the settings page within Gmail go to the general tab and then enable undo send and you can choose how many seconds you have to cancel it as well thank you google alright guys the gala that's going to do it for this we show you can always email us at google issues at cnet com or tweet me at brian Tong thanks for watching we'll see you all next time for some more of that Google issues Google ishes
