Google: Google notebook going away now what? |
|
Friday, January 23, 2009 |
Last week Google announced that they would no longer be developing or supporting Google Notebook among other projects. If you are like me you went into panic mode. Even though Google is saying that they are not going to pull the plug on Notebook real soon the Firefox browser plug-in that I have grown to love and use everyday will be no more. So I went out looking for alternatives to Google Notebook and found a couple but the one I really like is Zoho Notebook. And their annoucement today of an updated Firefox plug-in update really seals the deal for me. Once installed it functions very much the same as Google Notebooks does with a few extras. Additionally if you are like me and have many Google Notebooks and were trying to figure a good way to get all that hard work moved and saved then you are in luck additionally Zoho announced today that they were taking things a further step and putting together a quick and easy way to transfer your information from one service to another with a few clicks. Here is how to do just that: How to import Google Notebook to Zoho? You can do this import very easily in just a few steps. - Install Zoho Notebook Helper Firefox extension
- Once installed, login to Zoho Notebook (you can even use your Google login)
- Also login to Google Notebook.
- Go to this url chrome://zoho-notebook/content/g2z.html
- Hit the Start link
- That’s it.
And here is what you should see. The whole process took no time at all for me to move all my files over. Stay tuned to find out if this online application is as friendly and useful as Google Notebook has been. Labels: Firefox, Google

So you say you want to stop having to rely on Microsoft and Adobe to open any old file that you come across on the web that is a document, spreadsheet or presentation. Well then this Firefox add-on is for you. With it and an account to either Zoho or Google Docs and you are good to go. Just right click and choose to open that .doc .ppt .xls or .pdf file online. So long bloated office suite programs and hello quicker productivity.

Gadgets: Yu Type Keyboard Display |
|
Tuesday, January 20, 2009 |
The Yu Type keyboard display was designed for those folks who struggle with typing and have a hard time with having to look from the keyboard to the screen and back to the keyboard to make sure they don't have any typo's.
With the Yu Type those two finger typers can concentrate on what they type and see it in the same place they are hunting and pecking away.
This is the brainchild of Yusuf Muhammad who was the winner with it for the Living Room category of the Toyota RCA Design Competition.

Google: Chrome Gmail problem |
|
Monday, January 19, 2009 |
Do you use Google Gmail? Have you tried the Gmail labs features? If you have and enabled the calendar feature of Gmail labs you may be seeing an authentication request if you are accessing Gmail using Google Chrome. For some reason Chrome cannot keep Gmail convinced that it is authentic in order to continue to display your Google calendar on the side of Gmail. Not sure why this is happening but if you do not want to continue to have to cancel this request you can disable your choice for the calendar in Gmail labs section. Labels: Chrome, Google
