Plus Codes & YouTube Shorts

 Mariam Abdullahi, Director of Platforms and Ecosystems, Google Africa shared the new innovation on street addressing via Plus Codes - addresses for everyone. Simple, free to use, open-source digital addressing, for the entire world

Plus Codes are like street addresses for people or places that don’t have one. Instead of addresses with street names and numbers, Plus Codes are based on latitude and longitude and displayed as numbers and letters. With a Plus Code, people can receive deliveries, access emergency, and social services, or just help other people find them.

YouTube Shorts is a way for anyone to connect with a new audience using just a smartphone and the Shorts camera in the YouTube app. YouTube’s Shorts creation tools make it easy to create short-form videos that are up to 60 seconds long with our multi-segment camera.
