Back in February we saw Jotspot resurface as Google Sites, a service for creating group websites. After reviewing it, it looked like a great way for people to easily create a website that had a customizable look and feel. The only problem at its launch was that it was available only to those with a Google Apps account. As of late yesterday, Google Sites is now open to everybody. The possibilities of what

Google Apps users who have years (or just a few months worth) of emails stored in Outlook, Outlook Express or Thunderbird, now have a very simple way to upload those messages to a Google Apps mailbox (Gmail). Google just launched an open source desktop utility called Google Email Uploader that gets the job done. The best part is that the sent dates from all of your messages are kept in-tact and folders that you

Shortly after Google acquired YouTube back in 2006, they acquired Jotspot. Jotspot offered their users a place where they could create a structured Wiki that was easily updatable. Once they were acquired, we knew eventually Google would launch something that used Jotspot's technology. The day has come, and a new service from Google has launched called Google Sites which incorporates elements we saw in Jotspot.

Now I know that Yahoo had no need for Zoho - they were going after Zimbra, an Online Open Source Office Suite. TechCrunch

Much like the Google Phone, the rumors of a Google file backup/storage service called GDrive have been around for a while now (here and here).  Originally it was thought to be just a service for Google employees to store and share files, but now we have further indication that it might be released to the public. Tony Ruscoe has been amazing at digging up dirt on Google services and features, and this

People around the web are enraged over a statement found in the terms and conditions for Google Docs & Spreadsheets. At first glance, they have a right to be upset, however by reading the terms and conditions in its entirety and a little explanation, no one has anything to be upset about.

The statement in question reads:

Most of us know that Google Docs and Spreadsheets which comes with Google Apps, while it has its perks, is really no comparison to the functionality offered with Microsoft’s Office.  A recent report talks about this and the fact that “Google Apps is useful in a limited set of circumstances” which could ultimately lead to disappointment among enterprises and large companies.

Essentially the report is telling businesses to look at Google Apps carefully before buying. At $50 per user
