Pretty good week for Google

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Does anyone else remember seeing so many little, yet very useful, announcements being made by one company the way Google made them in the last half of this week?

We got new Gmail features, vacation auto responder and Contact Groups, they put out a Blogger comments Firefox extension along with a Safe Browsing extension, and then topped it all off with a Mobile Gmail rollout.

Can’t say that I accomplished that much this week, can you? 🙂

    I finally got some time to watch the first two episodes of the IT Crowd over at BBC4. It’s pretty funny stuff and while most of it is farce there’s just enough truth to it to make your typical IT folks nod with familiarity. When Moss asks Roy “Did she continue talking to you AFTER…

    See Andy’s post here. More details on aspcomments handling of 18 digit blog id’s.

  1. Looks like they’ve pulled the firefox extension already – having said that if you google “firefox blog extension google” you can download the page from google’s cache – which strikes me as rather ironic.
