Live webinar: The evolution of commerce and how you can capitalize
2011年5月4日星期三
The retail landscape is evolving as new technologies provide additional ways to discover and purchase products. Mobile devices, for example, are fundamentally changing how consumers shop by facilitating product discovery, the reading of reviews, and more – all on the fly. Online shopping is also expanding as a result of technologies like
Google Product Search
and the
Shopper mobile app
, two of many new channels which drive traffic to both desktop and mobile sites.
In a
March 2011 research study
conducted by ROI Research, 49% of mobile searchers made a mobile purchase in the past six months, with 82% of respondents using mobile search to find an online retailer. Understandably, more and more retailers are not only improving their desktop site, but also creating
distinct mobile experiences
.
Join us tomorrow for a special look at innovations in e-commerce like the ones mentioned above. We’ll share our observations and a few ways you can increase conversion by bringing the latest in online retailing to your site.
When:
Thursday, May 5, 2011 at 11:00 AM PT/2:00PM ET
Who:
Nitin Mangtani, Group Product Manager for Google Commerce

Now available with Google Apps: Google Groups
2011年4月28日星期四
Editor’s note: Last year we
launched an improvement
that makes over 60 additional Google services available to Google Apps users.
This series
showcases what’s new and how your organization can benefit.
Welcome to Google Groups
Google Apps for Business and Education customers have traditionally had access to
Google Groups for Business
, which has allowed the creation of groups and mailing lists within the organization. Today we’re expanding the discussion by making the general Google Groups service, which allows users to participate in public discussions with others outside the organization, available with Google Apps.
Google Groups
allows the creation of groups and mailing lists with any group of people from all across the web and includes Usenet archives and archives of public groups. For example, if you’re writing a new mobile app and want to follow the
Android Developers forum
or are interested in the latest news about Chrome OS in the
Chrome notebook pilot forum
you can use Google Groups to get involved in the discussion. There are millions of public groups available, so no matter your field or focus, you’re likely to find relevant discussions that you can follow and join using Google Groups. You can also set up your own public discussion community using Google Groups
Google Apps for Business and Education customers will continue to have access to Google Groups for Business, which is part of the core Google Apps suite. Google Groups is a separate service, and will be available to users of the free version of Google Apps as well as Google Apps for Business and Education. Administrators can turn on both services, or only the one that makes most sense for their use case, giving more control over how users participate in groups inside and outside of the organization.
Learn more and get started
Google Groups
can be enabled by your domain administrator from the Google Apps Control Panel at
https://www.google.com/a/[your_domain.com]
(replace [your_domain.com] with your actual domain name). If your organization isn’t using Google Apps yet, you can learn more and sign up today at
http://www.google.com/apps/more
.
For more information please take a look at our
Help Center

Note: Google Groups may not be available in all areas.
Simpler file upload in Google Docs
2011年4月28日星期四
(Extended post on the
Google Docs Blog
.)
Starting today, Rapid Release users now have access to these handy new features in Google Docs: folder upload, documents list integration, and drag-and-drop upload.
Folder upload is now accessible via the new
Upload
menu in the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari. We’ve also merged the upload page’s functionality into the documents list to create a much better upload experience. When you upload files via the new drop-down menu, a window will pop up in the bottom right of your documents list and show upload progress. Lastly, if you are using Chrome, Safari and Firefox on your Mac or PC, you’ll also be able to drag-and-drop one or more files directly into your documents list to initiate an upload.
For more details about today’s changes to uploading files, check out our extended post on the
Google Docs Blog
or take a look at our
FAQs
.
Update:
This is now rolled out to everyone.

I’m lost without you: Google celebrates Admin Professionals’ Week
2011年4月28日星期四
Lost. Late. Out-of-luck. That’s where we’d be without our administrative assistants at Google. Using Google Apps and the flexibility of our 100% web tools, these gurus coordinate schedules, manage inboxes, and keep our organization humming.
In light of
Administrative Professionals’ Week
, we’re celebrating with some of our Google Apps customers and their dedicated executive assistants and administrative teams. At Google, we are fond of saying that we “eat our own dogfood,” so when a group of Google admins came forward to offer assistance to our customers’ admin teams to help them learn the ins and outs of Google Apps, the “Admin Assistant Guru” program was born.
The Admin Assistant Guru program officially launched earlier this year and includes a network of 70 volunteer admin assistants from Google who meet with and coach their peers in our customer organizations. The goals of the program are to help our customers’ admin teams increase productivity and foster collaboration in the admin community by sharing best practices.
Since launching the Admin Assistant Gurus program, we have seen great joint-success with more than 20 customers. For example:
SNL Financial
, a large global company with more than 1,500 employees, spent time with our Google Admin Assistant Gurus team on their Google Apps go live day in April. Galen Warren, CTO at SNL Financial said, “Our executive assistants were very pleased with how much attention they got from Google and how much time and effort was put into ensuring that they were happy, and that all of their questions were answered. The Admin Assistant Gurus program made a big difference to the success of our launch of Google Apps across SNL Financial.”
Brady Corporation
, an international manufacturer with more than 7,000 employees, understands that successful collaboration starts with their exec admin team. Prior to and during their Google Apps deployment, Brady employees and the Google Gurus gave personal attention to the admin team, who “loved having 'Googlers' help them work through issues quickly" said Matt Vandenbush, IT Director of Strategy and Architecture at Brady Corporation. After a year using Google Apps, Lynda Carpenter, Executive Assistant says, "e-mail and calendar are critical to doing my job well. Thanks to the resources Google provides, I know how to get the right answers to my management team quickly."
Making Google Apps easier to adopt and manage
continues to be a priority for our team, and we look forward to supporting our customers through innovative support programs such as the Admin Assistant Gurus.
Happy Admin Week!

Google Sites brings you over 100 new web fonts
2011年4月27日星期三
(Cross-posted from the
Google Docs Blog
.)
Ever wanted to make your Google site feel even more unique? Today, we added a wide variety of
Google Web Fonts
to Google Sites, making it easier to style your website and make it look awesome.

We’re looking forward to seeing the sites you create with these beautiful new fonts.
