Google Gadgets


Google just keeps them coming. The newest toys/applications from Google just came out this past week and I've been enjoying the "gadgets" that their new Google Desktop application comes with. And yes, it's a total copy of what Apple has been doing, but it lets us PC users get in on the fun too =)

There are few other newbies that you can read about here ... and I'm looking forward to their new Google Notebook function which should be out next week [I think it's going to be a free application that will basically take the place of Microsoft's Notebook program.]

And to keep in line with my "Something Fun For Your Friday" thingy I've been doing, I posted the last chapter of the Thailand 2003 Mission Trip DVD (that our hard-working EBae made!) on YouTube ... enjoy! And have a great weekend :)

Hey EBae. Keep those videos coming bro. You did an amazing job on that DVD too :)

Wow, that's pretty cool that your friend is working for Google ... if they need someone to test out new products (toys) let me know :D BTW, how does your friend like working there? What's the work enviornment like?

Eddie :)

well, he says it's a great place to work at. I think he's enjoying it a lot~ apparently the company wants to create a certain culture~ so even if you are super smart, you many not even get the job if you don't meet their 'cultural' standards I think~ they get thousands of applicants all the time!

EBae: I heard great things about how Google has been creating a cool working culture/environment in their US office. I'd love to see how they're transfering that into their international offices as well. Let's visit your friend sometime :)

Paul: Hey Paul, good to hear from you. Yeah, that video/DVD brought back a lot of great memories for me too. I don't have any more videos from other mission trips on me at the moment, but if I can get my hands of them, I'll post those up too.

DBae: I agree. I first tried a bunch of different gadgets, but in the end I'm basically just using the weather thing too :)
