everyone probabbly using google calendar by now, so nothing new there.
the new beta in town is spreadsheet, compare to excel, its pretty lacky in feature actually: can't do borders, can't comment, can't freeze row+column, just few off top of my head. but i already starting to like the online/sharing aspect of it. similar to the advantage of gmail and calendar, it means you have access to it from any where as long as you have internet and web browser. but it is a tad scary how more and more of your info and files are now stored by google (or else where online), you might not actually own a backup copy yourself offline. hm...
my brother happened to send me a link to msn local.live today, and out of habbit, i used the middle button to zoom.... and magically it actually worked! now why doesnt google map have that?.... could really use that in spreadsheet as well, well the right mouse button probabbly more important.
while messing with gmail and firing off few suggestions, i realized they have added few more unannoced features in settings.
send email from another address: this is useful if you have things forward to gmail :)
filtering: auto filter or archive or delete mails as they come in, makes you even lazier
gchat: well not new nor part of setting, i think it was very smart of them to intergrate it, quite useful, its an IM service I wouldnt use otherwise (trillian 2 pro's jabber doesnt support it)
just wish google calendar could be more intergrated with gmail, well just simply let me stick a piece of email on to an event... anyway, sadly its not at all intergrated for me right now, other than "inviting" people from my gmail contact to see events. i find that's the best way to share specific events with individuals (even if its not really an actual event that would require invitation or guests), instead of sharing a whole calendar and forgetting who can see what, and not having the alert feature, the 3 calendar iu already have still would not be enough anyway.
