My 7 days with Google Apps : Day 3

Day 3 : Having fun with Gmail

Did you know that Gmail provide generously about 7++ GB(and still counting)of storage and recently increased 20MB(*NOOB note:It's megabyte by the way,not megabit!) limit of attachment files? That's huge enough to save your regular emails on day-to-day basis without deleting them!

Refine your search using Google Squared



Hey there,

Just now I encountered something interesting, again by Google, called Google Squared.It is still under Labs version which means, it is still unstable and under experimental.But here, I would say that it will be a good search engine, when you need to refine your search or make comparisons using nothing but tables on your browser! Life can't be easier than this!Imagine you need to search and compare products that you want to buy on the net using a search engine capability.Let's take a look:

Invitation From Google Wave

I'm so happy today.I've been invited by the Google team to preview their new product called Google Wave(err but more like I sign up to get invited, lol!)




But hey,they accept it right? So, who cares.But actually Google Wave is still under preview among the Developer.But my task here is to preview their product and keep on giving feedback to them to report bugs....So I can't wait to give it a try!

My 7 days with Google Apps : Day 1

Day 1: Google-ing Google Docs


I truly don't remember when I started to use Gmail as my first Google-based product.At the first glance, Gmail seems ugly to me.I'm more familiar with yahoo mail and everything in yahoo look trendy(Mind you I started using yahoo mail at the age of 14 back in 1999).


But now, after I received a task at the office to distribute a survey within 15-30 minutes, gosh, I had no choice but Google-ing the best possible solutions around.I encountered various sites of online survey but none can cater the need which is-yeah u guess it right, FREE survey form that can be distributed without compromising the number of respondents allowed at one particular time.
