New from Google!

 Embarrassment-reducing new message notifications


Ever replied to a message only to find out that someone sent a better, smarter reply right before you? Now, if someone sends a reply while you're in the middle of reading a conversation (or replying to it), you'll get a notification that a new message has arrived. Click "update conversation" to see what you’ve missed.

Now you never have to worry about being shown up again.  Thank you Google for making sure my whit and cleaver heckling will be safe and secure for all users. 

Google has launched their own Web browser called Google Chrome. The public beta, which will be available Tuesday morning for Windows only, is based in part on Apple's WebKit and Mozilla's Firefox. It promises it's own Javascript Virtual Machine, a new Tab method, and much more.

You can read more about it here. Google states that a Mac and Linux version of their open-source browser is on the way.



It should be of no surprise that I love Google. I love everything Google has to offer. Except for access to a world of filth and smut at the click of a mouse button. But as far as tools go... I'm hooked. I use Google's personalized homepage for my web hompage, I use Google for blogging, I use Google for my photo albums, Google Maps, I use Google Docs for spreadsheet capabilities, Google Reader, Google Calendar, Google, Google, Google.

But today I fell in love all over again!

I was not aware that I could personalize a map and have it accesable by anyone. Check out this map I created for our upcoming Fall Small Group locations. (Be sure to click on the points and see what all is there).
