His name would be ‘Shorts‘(‘Short’ in Spanish)
Of time is nothing more than a rumor, but The Information has great sources, and very rarely exclusive of this draft without that then are met. In addition, this strategy, it fits in with another new attempt of Google to have something more social than YouTube or Google Mapsthat right now are what you can zoom in on all of this, bearing in mind that Google Maps is in the private sphere.
