How-to: use Google Music from anywhere (yes, outside of the United States)

Now that Google Music has finally clawed its way out of the realm of beta-ware, anybody in the US can sign up to play without an invitation. Of course, that leaves many folks out of the equation, so we thought it a good time to point out at least one other route to let you get involved in the service, no matter where you live. See, the rub seems to be that Google checks your IP address on your first attempt to log in, and accept its terms of use — only the first time, and yeah, you’re definitely going to be ignoring that doc by following this guide. So, in essence all we need to do is find a way to gently tiptoe past that gatekeeper and we’re home free

T-Mo invites us to ‘Experience the World of T-Mobile & Google’ with Busta Rhymes as our guide

We’re still having fun coming up with reasons why Google decided to have its next ” special event ” in Los Angeles — popular choices include “easy access to geothermal power” and “trying to help LA fall into the sea, already” — but now things are looking a little more clear. A star-studded event happening later that night has been announced, hosted by T-Mobile and featuring Drake, Maroon 5, Busta Rhymes, Dirty South and R3hab. That’s nice, but we’re more curious about what kind of hardware we’ll be seeing. Could this be why Verizon backed down from its “exclusive” stance on the Galaxy Nexus ? Does the big boombox up on the billboard mean Google Music will be getting a proper launch, or just that Busta will be rocking it old school? We’ll see on Wednesday night

Google announces Android ‘special event’ for November 16th in Los Angeles

We just got word from Google of an Android-themed event next week, with little more than the words “These Go to Eleven” right up top — a reference to a phrase from the 1984 mockumentary This is Spinal Tap . To top things off, the email came from “Nigel Tufnel,” Christopher Guest’s character from the film. The event kicks off in Los Angeles at 2PM local time (that’s 5PM for you folks on the East Coast) on Wednesday, November 16th
