Star Wars Will Transform Your Google Apps To Either The Light Or The Dark Side

In case you've been living in a bubble for the last year, there's a new Star Wars film coming. To make sure you absolutely know though, Google and Star Wars are letting you transform your Gmail, Google Maps and YouTube apps into dark or light sided versions.
