Google asks for Android ideas, plans app for blind
Google has begun taking suggestions from users of its Android software on new features for the operating system and is developing an add-on designed to help blind people use Android-based phones by assigning any spot on the screen they touch to the number five, the center of the numeric keypad. "The Product Ideas team will pop in from time to time to see what you have to say, and we'll be offering periodic updates on what we see and what ideas make it into your favorite products," according to a note posted to a Google Mobile blog last week.
