Google is Getting it Right!!!

I often read the Official Google Blog to stay current of their latest endeavors.  I must say, they are doing an incredible job!  They are now offering Google Sites for anyone who wants to establish a web presence.  It is so easy to do that even my nine year old son can do it.  If you want a web site for a classroom, business or just for personal use, you must check this out. 

The other portion of Google is the Google Docs offline option.  Work with you Google Docs and rss readers offline with Google Gears.  I will give a try to see how effective it is. Imagine a world without having to purchase another Microsoft application!!  Read what Google has to say!

“As long as I have an Internet connection, every change I make is saved to the cloud. When I lose my connection, I sacrifice some features, but I can still access my documents (for this initial release, you can view and edit word processing documents; right now we don’t support offline access to presentations or spreadsheets – see our help center for details). Everything I need is saved locally. And I do everything through my web browser, even when I’m offline (the goodness that Google Gears provides). When my connection comes back, my documents sync up again with the server.

It’s all pretty seamless: I don’t have to remember to save my documents locally before packing my laptop for a trip. I don’t have to remember to save my changes as soon as I get back online. And I don’t have to switch applications based on network connectivity. With the extra peace of mind, I can more fully rely on this tool for my important documents.”
