TWEAKS AND UPDATES
The Verge: Google Home’s script editor is now live. “Google has finally launched its script editor tool, offering more powerful automations for your Google Home-powered smart home.”
Techdirt: Google Finally Restores ‘Downloader’ App To Store. “A couple of weeks back, we discussed how Google had delisted the app Downloader from the Play Store after a DMCA notice was issued by a firm representing several Israeli TV networks. The problem with all of this is simple: Downloader doesn’t have anything to do with copyright infringement or piracy. All it does is combine a file manager and basic web browser.

We loved our first meteor camera so much that we soon set up three more and we now have almost full sky coverage.
