There are grounds for a competition here at this stage. "What services will Google not offer?!"
Wonderful. I am at home with spreadsheets as they offer much easier notecollecting than other services.
Problem: I do live in my Excel, especially on the side of keyboard usage .. I am quite sure they will not work in google xls ;)
the question to me is: who is calculating his private or business numbers on foreign servers and/or applications ? Same is applicable for projects as salesforce.
nice gambling, but not for productive use. any other views ?
Ingo:
What about having a corporate google server with serveral servertasks like mail, maps, spreadsheet, calender etc ? ;-)
Nice idea. Let´s have a look on the current facts from http://www.google.de/enterprise/:
- a engine w/in the capability to search in more than 500.000 documents costs 30.000 Euro
- this one with the capability to search documents from 50.000 to 300.000 documents costs 1.995
so far so good. What do you think will cost a coporate engine with the right to write 30.000 to 300.000 documents ?
annotation: they talk about DOCUMENTS not CONTENT in the actual offers ....
