- Google adds Earth support and usability tweaks to Drive, new search options in Gmail
Google doesn’t usually buy into the whole “lets package a bunch of new features into a major upgrade” thing. So, while the ability to search your Gmail based on the size of a message or have finer grained control over the time-related filters may not seem like a huge deal, remember this tiny new tweak is part of a laundry list of improvements made over the last year. The crew at Mountain View hasn’t forgotten about Drive either. Starting today you can now search documents according to the names of people you’ve shared them with and even open up Google Earth files (.kml and .kmz) right in your browser. A number of small usability improvements have also been made, including the ability to create a new folder right from the organize pane (finally!). You can even drag and drop entire folders from your desktop to Drive, so long as you’re running Chrome. For a few more details check out the source links.

Texas Instruments signaled its intentions to back away from the volatile mobile market as the summer came to a close. Unfortunately, we’re now learning that the shift comes at a price — as part of a wider set of cost-cutting measures, TI is shedding roughly 1,700 jobs worldwide. The chip designer hasn’t said how soon the layoffs take effect, but these and the overall budget trimming should lead to savings of about $450 million per year by the end of 2013. That’s not going to be reassuring to those who’ll soon find themselves looking for work, although it may be necessary for TI to survive when the market for off-the-shelf mobile processors is rapidly thinning out.
