Google has recently launched the Hotpot service, allowing users in 38 countries, including Romania, to see recommendations for restaurants, hotels and coffee shops, based on other users' feedback. Users can rate places nearby, share tips about their favorite places, review places and search for new ones. Future searches will take into account the user's previous searches and ratings. Check out Google Hotpot here.

Google launched the Street View service in Romania in December last year. The company also opened an office in Romania at the end of last year.
