Power Readers in Politics
If you're curious about which news sites and blogs John McCain or Barack Obama follow, now using Google Reader you can read the same material the candidates read. For the upcoming U.S. presidential election, we've launched Power Readers in Politics, a feed of shared articles for the presidential campaigns and leading political pundits. You can see which headlines are catching the attention of newsmakers and read their comments.

2008 Summer Games on Google
For this year's Summer Games in Beijing, we launched a global effort to bring some of the most important moments in sports history to more people than ever. If you missed any of the action, you can still track the results with Google News and explore the Olympic venues using Google Maps.

Updates to Google Maps
Google Maps has a fresh new look: besides sporting a single search box, the clean, straightforward design lets you more easily view full- screen maps. We've also improved the way to print directions, added the ability to print Street View images, and included an "Avoid tolls" option for driving directions.

MISCELLANY
The 2008 U.S. political conventions -- two weeks of party business that began with the Democrats in Denver on August 25 and continue with the Republicans in Minneapolis on September 1 -- mark the beginning of the general election season. This year is particularly exciting in part because of the groundbreaking role technology is playing in connecting candidates and voters. To help you stay informed and engaged, we're launching a one-stop shop for political information on our conventions site. You can view the latest news, videos, photos and blog posts. Use Elections Video Search to see what the candidates are saying about the issues that concern you, and interact with a wide variety of political mashups in the Google Maps Elections Gallery. If you're a teacher, use our Election Toolkit for Teachers to inform your students about the political process. And as election day grows closer, we're working on ways for you to find local voter registration sites or polling places on demand. As the momentum continues over the next few months, bookmark the page and check back regularly.
