The Google Enterprise blog just announced some new ways to share your docs in Google Apps, which provide for more flexibility.
With more and more client companies using Google Docs sharing to collaborate, this more granular control should come in handy.
A lot of the sites I’ve built for clients are based on WordPress, which in my opinion, is one of the better content management platforms available.
Nearly 220 contributors worked for more than six months to ready this latest major milestone, and it’s got plenty of good stuff to make the upgrade worthwhile.
Not familiar with WordPress? Well, odds are that you’re familiar with some of the sites that use it, such as CNN, Yahoo, Martha Stewart, Forbes, Network Solutions, and more.
Nearly every WordPress site I’ve developed and deployed for clients has included custom themes and plugins that made me a little nervous about using the “upgrade automatically” feature in WordPress.
…or just here, in North Coastal San Diego County?
Back towards the beginning of this year, I was amused by Verizon’s campaign to illustrate that their 3G network is significantly larger than AT&T’s, and even more amused when AT&T responded that they “cover more people,” displaying a map that looked bigger than Verizon’s.
I wonder how many people never figured-out that the AT&T map, which “looked better,” was actually a map of their voice coverage, and not their 3G coverage?
About that same time, I began reading all kinds of scathing reports about how AT&T’s 3G coverage was not just spotty, but really pretty slow in some areas.
All of that back-and-forth got me wondering… I had started noticing what I perceived to be a slow-down in the 3G service provided by T-Mobile on my wife’s Android phone, and decided to see how well it was really performing, by conducting a series of speed tests over time.
I wish these were around back when I got my MyTouch a few months back.
After seeing the Clapton commercials for the Fender MyTouch Android phone, I finally got to play with one “in-person” during a recent visit to my local T-Mobile store.
I have to say that even despite the faux vernier (yes, that’s “fake wood”), it’s one good looking phone.
And at least, I guess, the “plastic wood” isn’t much of a fire hazard, as compared to carrying a wooden phone in your pocket.
Even the matching “wooden” ear-buds that come with it look incredible.
And it’s probably good they’re “fake wood.”
Splinters in the ears would be a real bummer.
Overall, it’s the coolest looking phone I’ve ever seen (kudos, T-Mobile).
I can’t wait to see how Apple responds (a Les Paul iPhone would be cool?).
I just wish T-Mobile hadn’t made Clapton goof with that cheesy “guitar app” in the commercial. That really seems to cheapen the offering, but alas.
