Google Launches Its New 3D Maps On iOS, Desktop Coming Later This Year

Google just launched the latest version of Google Earth for iOS. This update brings Google’s new highly detailed 3D imagery of a select number of cities to the iPhone and iPad. Google first announced these new features in a hastily arranged press conference in early June to scoop Apple’s own 3D maps announcement a few days later. The company first launched this feature on Android phones and tablets in late June. This new version of Google Earth for iOS also features Google Earth’s new tour guide feature.

As it takes a good amount of processing power to produce these 3D images on the fly, Google will only show the new 3D imagery on the latest version of the iPad, the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4S. Users need to be on iOS 4.2 or newer. Every other iOS device will also get today’s update, but the new feature won’t be available on older phones and tablets.

For the time being, Google has only made these new 3D maps available for Rome and about a dozen cities in the U.S., including most of the San Francisco Bay Area, Tampa, L.A., Boston and Portland. Unlike the Google Earth Android app, the new iOS app won’t show Google’s old hand-made 3D models in cities that don’t feature the new imagery yet.

Oddly enough, Google has completely focused on making its 3D imagery available on mobile but hasn’t made it available on the desktop yet. As Google Maps product manager Peter Birch told me yesterday, though, the company plans to bring the new maps to the desktop before the end of the year. He also reiterated that Google remains committed to expands its 3D maps to cover a large number of additional metropolitan areas around the world (covering about 300 million people) before the end of the year, too.

Given that Apple is switching away from Google Maps with the upcoming release of iOS 6, I couldn’t help but also ask Birch about the company’s plans for a regular mapping app for iOS. He wasn’t quite ready to announce anything yet, though, and just stressed that his group is “passionate about maps” and wants to bring its product to “users everywhere.” I would be very surprised, however, if we didn’t see a Google Maps app – maybe even with integrated turn-by-turn navigation – arrive on iOS before the end of the year.

The Weather Channel Releases Lumia-Only Windows Phone App: Augmented Reality, Social Weather Alerts, And More

The Weather Channel has been working hard to improve its mobile experience, with a new iPad app, a revamped iPhone app, and now a brand new Windows Phone app for Lumia devices. The WP app for Lumia will have features exclusive to Lumia owners for the next three to six months, at which point the same features will be ported over to the old Windows Phone app, available to all.

Along with support for seven languages, the app will offer improved alert functionality and a new augmented reality feature. The Augmented reality feature allows you to check out the weather through your camera using photos submitted by users in your area. So, for example, if you pointed your phone’s camera at the Empire State Building, and someone had just posted a photo of it in the rain, your screen would show that user’s photo and the accompanying weather in your display.

The app also provides channels for you to chat with friends about weather in your or their area. But perhaps the most important social feature is Weather Alerts for your friends, alerting you if any of your friends or family are under a sever weather threat.

Lumia users will also get a bit better at planning out their lives thanks to the “My Amazing Day” feature on the new app. Users will be able to specify weather conditions for certain activities (between 70 and 80 degrees, low pollen for a picnic in the park, or rainy and cold for a day spent reading indoors). The TWC app will then notify you ten days out that Tuesday looks like the perfect day for your picnic, or that Saturday’s conditions will be perfect for your planned reading day.

In a few months, all Windows Phone users will have access to the new language support, along with the ability to add live tiles with weather-triggered backgrounds to the phone’s homescreen. Users will also be able to track their favorite weather moments by checking out TWC’s gallery of user-generated photos, or upload their own photos.

But for now, loyal Nokia users will be the only lucky cool kids with access to TWC’s new WP app.

Real Life Japanese Mech Robot Fires BBs With A Smile

The Kuratas Mecha robot is an art/aspirational nerd project by Suidobashi Heavy Industry. This full-sized Mech robot features a ride-in cockpit, “rocket” launchers, and a “smile controlled” BB Gatling gun. That’s right: when you smile, this thing unleashes thousands of tiny plastic BBs.

Unveiled at Wonder Fest 2012 in Tokyo, you can control the robot with either a set of master-slave joysticks or using a more fluid Kinect interface. It runs something called the V-SIDO (Bushido) OS and includes touchscreen support inside the cockpit as well as 3G wireless connectivity so you can control it via phone.

You can “price out” your own Mech here but rest-assured you won’t be able to drive one of these off the lot any time soon. It’s a one-off project and, as cool as it is, it only moves at about 10KM per hour.

There are some who are suggesting this is CG but considering the AFP/Getty picked up some photos of it, it looks about as real as you can get.

Leaked iPhone 5 Images And Video Seem To Confirm Everything We Expect

It’s expected that the next-gen iPhone will launch in September, which means that Apple has approximately two more months to keep the specs, design, and availability a mystery. But that seems to be proving difficult, as a brand new video has just hit the web courtesy ofMacotakara.

It shows a longer iPhone housing with the same two-tone finish that we saw on 9to5Mac’s leaked images.

There is also an obviously smaller mini-port not unlike the 19-pin mini connector we’ve confirmed here at TechInspire+, and a new speaker grill down at the bottom.

Along with the video came a full gallery of photos from iLab, which seems to reaffirm that centered Facetime camera up front that we’d heard about. Interestingly enough, Macotakara also seems to have additional pieces of the phone that they show off in the video.

Check out the video and images after the break.

Hey Google! I Don’t Care About Hangouts, I Just Want To Read My Email

Marissa Mayer, please build us all a better Gmail over at Yahoo. Gmail is a disaster. That’s right, I said it. There’s an undercurrent of frustration surrounding Google’s webmail service, which is still growing like crazy (likely due to Android activations), but is now widely known to be “painfully slow.” The more you use it, the worse it gets. Even Y Combinator co-founder Paul Graham called out Gmail as painfully slow in a recent essay detailing ambitious startup ideas, saying that if someone were to build a service that was only as good as Gmail, but fast, that alone would allow them to pull away users from Google’s service.

Despite this, what does Google do? It keeps adding bells and whistles to Gmail. Video hangouts? I don’t want video hangouts in my Gmail. I want to read my email messages. Or rather, feel free to add video hangouts to Gmail, after you fix the damned thing.

Gmail is unusable. The other day, I counted how long it took Gmail to perform basic functions: open an email, do a search, and expand a thread. On a high-speed FiOS connection, on an Internet where clicks translate to immediate actions, it’s incredible to watch Gmail struggle to even function. 10 seconds to perform a search, 14 seconds to open an email message, 10 seconds to expand a conversation thread. These are numbers to be ashamed of, and I refuse to take the blame simply because I have “too much email” in storage. I have 24.2 GBs, but I’m a paying customer. I bought extra storage because Google sells extra storage. I archive emails because that’s what Google told me to do. That, in fact, was one of the original promises of Gmail – an email service so revolutionary, that you never have to delete your messages. You can save them forever, in a searchable archive. Gmail is your own personal Google.

Or it should be. But it no longer works.

Why has Gmail become painfully slow?, Why is Gmail so slow? Why does Gmail push on the iOS Mail app seem slow?, ask befuddled Gmail users over on Q&A site Quora. Answers range from it being a “victim of its own success” (that’s the story from a former Googler, written back in 2010) to “it’s probably all the add-ons.” Gmail, to be fair, is an impressive technological accomplishment. It lets us store gigabytes of messages in a huge database, and it lets us pull those up at will. Thanks for raising the bar, Gmail, back in 2004. But it’s long been time for someone, if not Google itself, to raise it again. It’s 2012 – is it really so much to ask to be able to click on an email and instantly read it? I can tweet and pour a cup of coffee before Gmail gets around to showing me what I clicked sometimes. Crazy.

Gmail is operating at an incredible scale, so the challenge of besting the service is not for the faint of heart. The company recently announced it had reached 425 million users, which tops the most recent public numbers from former rival Hotmail as well as other webmail players like AOL or Yahoo mail. There’s a reason why startups aren’t building Gmail competitors – and it’s not because they’re just looking for an easy exit. It’s because building a better Gmail is going to be incredibly hard to do.

But Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer led development of Gmail (among many other things) during her tenure at Google. If anyone could bring back Yahoo Mail to its heyday, it’s her. And it’s so desperately needed, she must be considering it. If successful, it would be such an easy sell, too: “Yahoo Mail: it’s like Gmail, but it works.”

Fingers crossed. 

[Follow up - This is old news. The problem is one Google has been aware of for some time, and generally fixes by moving accounts to new servers. It affects a subset of users - those with the "oldest," "largest" accounts.]

Apple’s “Purple” Concept For iPhone Gets Sony-Inspired Designs Thrown Out Of Patent Trial

Jury selection is starting today for the patent trial between Apple and Samsung that has already resulted in the release of tons of early Apple iPhone and iPad prototypes designs. But one design holds particular interest: an iPhone concept called “Purple.” The phone isn’t actually purple (it’s white), but the big news is not the color – it’s the date of the creation. To counter Samsung’s charge that Apple copied Sony’s smartphone and Walkman designs when it created the iPhone, Apple filed a motion with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California which shows the Purple concept was from 2005 – before Sony’s Nishibori Design, developed in March 2006.

Samsung had pulled Sony’s designs into the case, as an effort to discredit Apple and show that it copied designs from elsewhere in the creation of the iPhone.

News of the Purple concept was first reported by The Verge, which referred to documents from Apple which called the Sony-style touches “an ‘enjoyable’ side project,’” but one that was done on top of original concept designs. Apple then asked the court to exclude Samsung’s evidence, showing that Apple’s designs were Sony-inspired.

Apple requests that the Court enforce Judge Grewal’s Order by excluding evidence that Apple’s designs were derived from Sony’s design language, from Mr. Nishibori’s exercise in applying Sony-style design details to the iPhone, or from Sony handsets of the time. Because this evidence is not admissible to prove the invalidity of Apple’s patents, it should not come in for any purpose.”

Although Apple is not enjoying having to release so many of its prototype designs in such a public forum, revealing the “Purple” concept worked. According The Verge’s updated report, Judge Lucy Koh says now that Samsung will not be allowed to show evidence during the trial regarding the Sony-inspired designs for the iPhone.

T-Mobile To Launch $249 Ice Cream Sandwich-Powered Galaxy Note On August 8

T-Mobile’s Galaxy Note has been one of the worst-kept handset secrets in recent memory but the one thing the carrier managed to keep close to its proverbial chest is when its customers could actually go and get their hands on one. According to CNET, T-Mobile will begin selling its version of Samsung’s 5.3-inch phablet on August 8, for a cool $249 with a two-year contract.

Of course, whether or not you should buy one is another story entirely. Sure, there’s nothing wrong with the T-Mobile version per se — it’s nearly identical to the AT&T model, save for its lack of an LTE radio and the fact that it ships loaded with Ice Cream Sandwich. What really makes things dicey is the launch window that T-Mobile and Samsung have come up with.

You see, Samsung is expected to pull back the curtains on its“newest Galaxy device” just one week after T-Mo’s Galaxy Note goes on sale, and there are significant rumblings that said device is none other than the Galaxy Note 2.

If early reports hold true, the update should be a substantial one. South Korea’s MK Business News reported earlier this month that the new phablet will sort a quad-core chipset, a surprisingly beefy 12 or 13-megapixel camera, and an ever larger display — as if the Note didn’t already skew toward the unwieldy side of things. Samsung being Samsung, there’s no official word on what the company plans to unveil come the 15th — it may well be the oft-delayed Galaxy Note tablet — but it’s still a strong argument for staying at home and waiting to see what the Korean electronics giant has up its voluminous sleeves.

Viber Updates iPhone, Android Apps To Version 2.2: Group Messaging, Improved UI, Enhanced HD Calling

Viber has just released version 2.2 of the app for both Android and iPhone, bringing some much-requested features to the platform for the very first time including group messaging and improved call quality. The UI has also been significantly improved, which should please Viber’s growing user base.

In May, we learned that Viber had surpassed 70 million registered users. Today they’ve topped 90 million users and have taken the number of text messages sent from 1 billion to 2 billion per month.

But let’s not get distracted — back to the update.

Group messages show every member of the group’s thumbnail below the message preview, with the latest sender having the large profile pic on the left. Inside messages, you’ll actually be able to choose a fun background rather than the usual white. You can also use messaging in landscape.

More importantly, a new smart notifications feature has been added to make sure you aren’t bombarded with alerts, and a system has been implemented to speed up the process of kicking off a group message. Users will also be able share their name and photo.

Viber recently released their beta apps for BlackBerry and Windows Phone, and the group messaging features will carry over in an update to Viber for BlackBerry. The Android version will be getting nine additional languages including Arabic, Chinese (simplified and traditional), French, German, Hebrew, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.

To get hooked up with Viber, head on over to the website and install the app.

Microsoft Open Sources Entity Framework

Microsoft continues to make in-roads into open source development. Early last year it open sourced several development related tools, including NuGet and several libraries for its ASP.Net language. And by the end of the year the company announced sponsorship of projects to port both the Node.js development platform and the big data analytics tool Apache Hadoop to Windows. It’s even making Linux available on Azure, the company’s cloud computing platform.

And now it has open sourced Entity Framework, a framework that helps developers simplify data manipulation.

Entity is now part of Microsoft Open Technologies, a subsidiary launched earlier this year to house open source projects. You can find the source code for Entity on Codeplex, Microsoft’s answer toGitHub.

It’s another step in the right direction, but it’s nothing earth shattering. Microsoft is continuing to put its open source efforts into low risk developer tooling projects. Although representatives Microsoft’s partners in porting Node.js and Hadoop (Joyent and HortonWorks, respectively) have spoken highly of Redmond’s involvement in those projects, I’m not sure how community involvement the other projects have garnered. I’d still like to see Microsoft open source something bigger, something more core to the company’s business.

Still Protesting? Facebook Will Soon Force You To Switch To Timeline

Over the next few months, anyone still refusing to voluntarily switch to the Timeline profile redesignwill be automatically migrated, Facebook tells me. Users could choose to adopt the redesign starting in January, but there have been some hold-outs who didn’t want their whole life becoming easier to access, or just hated change.

Soon they won’t have a choice, though. Facebook revealed to me it plans to complete the Timeline rollout by this fall as part of its photo revamp this morning. By waiting to minimizing the number of users it’s forcing to switch, and doing it all gradually, Facebook will have successfully avoided the wildfire protests that characterized its early years.

Before the end of the year, those still on the old design will see a prompt upon their next login telling them about the switch to Timeline. They’ll then have seven days to curate their old posts and voluntarily publish their Timeline before it automatically goes live and becomes visible to their friends.

Some users have already been required to switch, though this last push will make sure all 955 million users are using the same profile format. Facebook tells me over the last few months its been rolling out Timeline to some who originally, but the migration will likely going to accelerate in hopes of getting everyone switched over by fall. Facebook’s reasoning? To give everyone a consistent experience.

There may be some other motives, too. Timeline comes with the “Recent Activity” box that calls out the apps you use, helping them grow and attracting developers to Facebook’s platform. There’s also the revamped Photos section that encourages more browsing and tagging. [Want the scoop on what Facebook's building next? 

Surely there’ll be some users dreading the switch. Older people I know say they still come across plenty of un-timelined profiles. These users may have come aboard Facebook during its high growth years around 2009 and 2010, and had just gotten used to the simpler previous design when Timeline debuted.

Others might be worried about their entire archive of Facebook content becoming more readily accessible. Timeline doesn’t change your privacy settings, plus it includes Activity Log, a much more powerful way to control the visibility of one’s content. It does allow much speedier navigation to posts from years ago, though. Skimming those posts to hide embarrassing or inappropriate photos or status updates is a bit of a chore.

However, curating Timeline is important. Featuring and hiding different content lets you present a more faithful online representation of your current personality and attitude, rather than being just the exact sum of your past. Also, the definition of “friend” has expanded in the eight years Facebook has been around to include bosses and family, not just peers.

Some might say an uncurated Timeline is more accurate, but I think we all deserve a chance to keep racy jokes or party pics visible only with our close friends, and not everyone we’ve friended who might misinterpret and judge us by them.

So if you (or your friends) still aren’t on Timeline, don’t be scared. Go tell the world who you are, not just who you were.

Yahoo’s IntoNow Updates Its iPad App With Music Syncing, TV Screen Captures, And Group Chat

When Yahoo acquired IntoNow last spring, the “technology powered media company” sought ways to connect users playing around with their iPhones and iPads with content that they were watching on TV. Today, about 80 percent of users watch television with some sort of mobile device in their hands. But mostly what they’re doing is checking email and playing Angry Birds. Now if only there were some app that could get them to pay attention to TV-type stuff while commercials are on. That’s what IntoNow and other second screen apps are all                        about.

Anyway, the newest IntoNow release — the company’s third major update — takes a step back from earlier versions, which were focused on TV discovery and sharing metadata with users. It found that users were getting little actual utility out of those features, and they weren’t coming back for more, according IntoNow GM Adam Cahan. So the team set about re-imagining ways it could promote more interaction with the app.

So what’d it come up with? For one thing, the new app also has a new TV and music sync function, which lets people know which songs are in the background during the middle of a show or as the credits roll. That doesn’t just apply to studio songs, but it can also help identify covers and live performances. So when you hear a song you like on American Idol, you can find the original. Users can then purchase a song on iTunes or watch the music video on YouTube.

But the biggest new feature is probably the addition of CapIt, which lets users capture and share photos from the TV shows that they’re watching. When watching a TV show with the IntoNow app, users can choose to CapIt during memorable moments, and the app will let them choose from multiple images that occurred prior to doing so. Users can then pick an image and share it with friends on Twitter, Facebook, or IntoNow. Users can also add captions, using the Meme-worthy Impact font, to add their own humor to screen captures.

On the backend, CapIt works by capturing one image per second of pretty much all the moments that happen on screen, and then holds them for a week. That’s more than 15 million images a day, according to Cahan. So even if you’re watching something on DVR, it will be able to match your image, as long as it’s been over the past week.

IntoNow also has rolled out a new group chat feature that will let users interact with each other. The function allows users to see which friends are available, so they can easily create chat conversations with each other. Friends can also create recurring conversations live when new episodes of their favorite shows air.

Frankly I’m not huge on second screen apps, but adding functionality like CapIt could give IntoNow a huge boost. With more than 3 million downloads, it’s already doing pretty well. But giving users an easy way to meme-ify TV could win over a lot of interest, if the right crowd catches on.

Analyst: iPhone 5, iPad Mini Coming In September

Apple’s next-gen iPhone — and the much-talked about (but yet unseen) iPad mini — are some of the most hotly anticipated gadgets of the year. And according to a report by relatively on-point KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the new iPhone and iPad mini will launch in September.

Thus far, we’ve heard that the iPhone 5 will have a larger 4.08-inch display maintaining the same width as current models, at 640 pixels. TechCrunch has also confirmed — along with Reuters more recently — that the new iPhone will replace its original 30-pin connector dock with a19-pin mini port.

The iPad mini, on the other hand, is said to be the same thickness as the iPod touch 4G, with a screen measuring 7.85-inches. He expects that iPad mini sales should hit 1.8 million units during the time its available (1-2 weeks) in Q3.

Of course, Kuo (and the rest of the world) expects Q4 numbers for both products to be ridiculously high, with iPhone projections at 55 million units and iPad estimates hitting 24 million (including both iPad mini, new iPad, and iPad 2).

Here’s Kuo’s official word:

Though shipments of iPad mini’s components will start in August, the new iPad line will end production, ready for transition to a modified New iPad line. As such, component shipments will drop in August as iPad mini’s components shipments growth will be offset. On a side note, the modified New iPad shares the same exterior as the original model, but contains modifications to correct its thermal dissipation problem and lower-cost components.

The September timeline is just a prediction made by this analyst, but it makes sense considering we’ve already heard that the iPhone is in production

Did Apple Just Quietly End Development Of Safari For Windows?

Safari 6 brings improved performance and many new features to OS X, including offline reading lists, a unified search field and support for Do Not Track. What seems to be completely gone from Apple’s site now, though, is any mention of the Windows version of Safari. Indeed, it looks like Apple has removed all download links for Safari from its site for the time being. This could be because Apple is currently highlighting Safari’s new features in Mountain Lion (which pre-installs Safari 6), or because Apple has indeed ended development of Safari for Windows. Windows users can still download the old version from Apple, but the link is hidden on the company’s support page.

Apple launched the first preview version of Safari for Windows in 2007 and the first stable version arrived in 2008. Despite some innovative features, Safari never caught on with Windows users. Google’s Chrome, which is based on the same WebKit browser engine as Safari, on the other hand, quickly became one of the most popular browsers on the market. As MG noted last year, it only took Chrome a year to surpass Safari’s market share.

It was always obvious, though, that Safari for Windows was not a priority for Apple and users often complained that Safari (just like Apple’s other Windows applications) felt unnecessarily bloated and slow. Maybe Apple decided to put Safari for Windows on the back burner for now and focus on getting it right on OS X, but it’s curious that every reference of the Windows version is now gone from the site (with the exception of a number of support articles).

We have reached out to Apple and will update this post once we find out more.

A Unique View Inside An HP Laptop Assembly Line

A Reddit user found this video recorded on his brand new HP laptop. It was stored in the My Documents folder and clearly depicts the mundanity of life inside a hardware manufacturing plant. This was taken in the Quanta Chongqing Manufacturing City in Chongqing and the worker seems to be testing the camera on this particular model.

Usually evidence of this testing is wiped out. It wasn’t in this case.

Essentially, you’re looking at the face of modern manufacturing. He’s not mistreated, he’s not chained to his desk, but he’s building the same thing, over and over again, a prospect not many of us would relish. It’s a mundane view inside a fairly secret world that we as consumers rarely get to see.

Follow Me: Google Makes Remarketing Easier For Advertisers, Connects Analytics And Display Network

Whenever you see the same ad for a shopping site you just visited pop up across the web, chances are that’s not a coincidence but a remarketing effort by that site. These sites often offer users who abandon their shopping carts, for example, a discount to lure them back. The only way to get a hold of them once they have left the site, however, is to target ads to them on other properties around the web. Starting today, setting up these remarketing campaigns is going to get a bit easier for advertisers who use Google Analytics. Google just announced that it is bringing its Google Analytics and Google Display Network closer together to give advertisers an easier to use option to remarket to very specific audiences who have previously visited their websites. This new service, says Google, simplifies the remarketing process and gives its advertisers more flexibility and “new ways to connect with [their] target audience.”

Until now, website owners had to use at least two different tags on their sites to enable remarketing and weren’t able to use the same detailed stats that Google Analytics offers to segment their audiences. Now, with its new Remarketing for Google Analytics feature, Google is making this service significantly easier for advertisers, which will likely mean that you will also soon see significantly more retargeted ads as you browse the web.

By combining data from Analytics with their remarketing campaigns, advertisers will also be able to very easily fine-tune their efforts by crafting very specific messages for users who, for example, are regular visitors to their site or who browsed a certain sub-set of pages. Besides tracking them across their own sites, advertisers can also use criteria like their users’ visit duration, the browser and operating system they used and their location (down to the city they live in) to try to re-engage them. These last options weren’t previously available to advertisers on Google’s Display Network.

Advertisers love remarketing, but this isn’t exactly a feature that users necessarily feel comfortable with. Thankfully, Google now makes it relatively easy to opt out of these efforts through its recently introduced “Mute This Ad” feature, as well as the Ads Preferences Manager, and the Google Analytics Opt-out.

Google Replaces Gmail Video Chats With Google+ Hangouts

This was probably inevitable: Google todayannounced that it is replacing video chats in Gmail with Google+ Hangouts. The company first brought video chat to Gmail in 2008, but ever since the launch of Google+, it was only a matter of time before the company decided to replace its old video chat feature with Google+’s marquee group video chat tool. Hangouts, Google says, “utilize the power of Google’s network to deliver higher reliability and enhanced quality” and will allow Gmail users to also reach people not only when they are using Gmail, but also “if they are on Google+ in the browser or on their Android or iOS devices.”

With Hangouts, Gmail users obviously also get a number of new feature that weren’t previously available in Gmail video chats. Besides the fact that users can chat with up to 9 users simultaneously, Hangouts will now also allow users to collaborate on Google documents and share their screens. As Google notes, there are also a “bunch of fun effects” that users can try. Just like with Gmail’s video chat feature, Hangouts also requires users to install a plugin.

Ever since the launch of Google+, Hangouts has been considered to be the social network’s “killer feature,” but it remains to be seen how Gmail users will react to seeing even more Google+ features in their email client.

Google says that it is rolling this new feature out starting today, but the complete rollout could take a few weeks.

The New Digg Is Launching On Wednesday: Will Be “Beautiful, Image-Friendly, And Ad-Free”

After its new owners decided to go back to the drawing board and figure out what to do with the former Web 2.0 darling, Digg is relaunching on Wednesday. Today, a week after its new owner Betaworks explained why it bought the site and announced the August 1 relaunch, the company has published the first mockups and screenshots of the new Digg v1 and explained what the user experience on the site will look like. According to this announcement, the new Digg will be a “beautiful, image-friendly, and ad-free experience.”

The new Digg looks to be a major departure from the current design. Not only will the homepage get a complete overhaul, but Digg v1 will also do away with the old Digg’s “Newsrooms” feature, as well as the “Diggbar.” The new version of the site will also bring back Digg’s old “upcoming” page where users can see which stories are about to hit the frontpage. The new site, says the new Digg team, “pivots around three views: Top Stories, Popular and Upcoming.”

For now, though, the site won’t feature a commenting system. The team apparently decided that getting this feature right would take more than the six weeks it gave itself to relaunch the site. Digg promises to experiment with comments in the coming week.

As for the voting system that was always at the heart of Digg, the new owners say that users will continue to be able to vote on stories but that the algorithm will also take Facebook shares and tweets into accounts (that’s actually a feature Digg planned for its v4 release before it scrapped it before the launch). Votes on the site, the new team says, will get priority but it sees shares on other social media sites as “important signals” that will be “closely monitored” by a team of moderators.

Besides the web version of the new Digg, the team will also launch a new mobile-optimized version of the site and a new Digg for iPhone.

At first glance, this looks like a sensible redesign for Digg, but let us know what you think in the comments.
