Now when you”re collaborating on that strategy deck, you don”t have to worry whether you”re looking at version 5 or 15. Plus, having your presentation stored online means one less file to send as an email attachment. (more…)

If current indications are anything to go by, Microsoft’’s popular Outlook software and IBM’’s Lotus Notes could see a part of their markets chipped off by free alternatives, though one could always argue about the richness of features. (more…)

Roma – Indiscrezioni, rumors, voci: si rincorre la “notizia” dell”imminente sbarco di un client offline per Gmail, di un softwarino che potrebbe andare a infastidire, per certi aspetti, anche i più blasonati client email. Google lo avrebbe in cantiere ormai da mesi, fin dal lancio di Google Gears, ma ancora in queste ore nega: chi sembra certo del suo arrivo è l”Hindustan Times, che dedica un lungo articolo alla questione ripreso persino da TechCrunch.

NEW YORK (AFP) — Born 10 years ago, the Google Internet search engine has grown into the electronic center of human knowledge by indexing billions of web pages as well as images, books and videos.

Smart links on the right
When you get an email that references an address, look to the right and you”ll probably see a link from Gmail pointing you to a map of the address on Google Maps. Gmail also recognizes email text that refers to an event (e.g., ”dinner tomorrow at 8pm’ and will give you a link to add it to your calendar. It”ll even pick up on package tracking numbers from UPS and link you directly to the tracking page, so you don”t have to copy and paste the number. I really like this last one when I order stuff online and want the instant gratification of knowing a package is on its way. (more…)
