Posted Friday, March 28, 2008 5:34 AM by stevecla01
Dennis Howlett has laid a $500 bet at Scoble’s door following Robert’s “ Google is making a run for the enterprise ” post this week. I read the post and almost replied but Dennis did a way better job than I could have. No question Read More...

Posted Monday, March 03, 2008 11:04 AM by stevecla01
Sidebar by Eric Gillin Not the kind of thing I expected to see covered in Esquire but it started a fun conversation between Darren Strange, myself and a PR chap we know about what beta means these days. I have my own views but would love to hear yours...does Read More...

Google Docs Bar for Firefox

Posted Monday, February 04, 2008 12:45 PM by stevecla01
  Google Docs Bar - a companion for Firefox is very nice - I hope we have something similar for IE8 or even a shell extension for Windows that would allow direct upload to SkyDrive and Office Live Workspace. We have an add-in for the latter that Read More...

MSFT/Yahoo Round 2

Posted Sunday, February 03, 2008 11:25 PM by stevecla01

fav.or.it's BIG window of opportunity

Posted Wednesday, December 26, 2007 7:21 PM by stevecla01
If I could, right now I'd be building a version of the OLD Google Reader and offering it to the OLD fans of Reader. People are going ape**** over the decision by Google to make a social network out of Reader (with no opt out feature). I love Reader and Read More...

Is Google underestimating enterprise IT?

Posted Monday, December 17, 2007 1:24 PM by stevecla01
A long but good read in the NY Times today and it's clear that battles lines are being drawn - by the press if not the two companies. I like Google - they make great software and are clearly very smart. However, as they move in to business (or enterprise) Read More...

Posted Wednesday, December 05, 2007 10:55 PM by stevecla01
Nice headline from Scoble but hyperbole methinks. No question Google's My Location is *very* cool and I was amazed how well it worked - and disappointed that Microsoft hasn't done this as our Live Mobile client is very slick . I would love to know how Read More...

Google's Gear

Posted Tuesday, June 19, 2007 11:52 AM by stevecla01
I enjoyed this article that James pointed me to as I've played a little with Google Gears inside of Google Reader. For a long time I have been saying Reader would be perfect if it had offline but I've hardly used it since they added it - and I can't quite Read More...

Microsoft Isn't Dead

Posted Monday, April 09, 2007 12:27 AM by stevecla01
I read Paul Graham's now infamous linkbait a few hours after it appeared and added a small comment myself to the debate. Since then, I've had numerous friends and blog readers ping me and goad me in to commenting. Despite trying to avoid blogging this Read More...
