In order to activate Goggles, you have to go to the ‘Settings’ link on Gmail’s page and access ‘Labs’ section.

Nowadays, whenever you see 2 people talking, most probably you will hear the word ‘iPhone 3G’ in their conversation!!
That’s why I was spending some time to look around and read some reviews about this new iPhone to see whether or not it is worth buying. And I found the Cnet review one of the good reviews available on the net since they ran full battery tests showing the results for EDGE talk time, and 3G-enalbled music and video playback. They also did thorough testing of the iPhone 3G’s features.
