This will be the reward for those who were tempted (but declined) to purchase the iPad last week. With my high satisfaction level with my HTC Android-based cell phone AND my almost exclusive adaptation of Google Apps (enterprise edition) — this slate might change my personal and business computing habits in the near future. This device could be the primary device to lug around all day.

This is a great announcement from Big Google. I have been a user and enterprise trainer on the merits of Google Docs since Day 1. These announced improvements will surely be an irritant to Microsoft and its impending release (next month) of the next generation of Office products. The war over cloud computing will be intense this summer – I can’t wait!

I attended the (2 day) Google AdWords Seminars for Success at Las Vegas in February this year and it really opened my eyes to the incredible force that is Google AdWords. This blog post is exactly why I think many SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) underestimate their investment (or involvement) in AdWords.

Great testimonial by Jay Berkowitz! Continued good luck with PlatesPlusForKids.com!

You just can’t beat Gina Trapani and her spot-on advice for navigating your digital life. These Gmail Filters that she compiled and made available for download — sliced through both of my Gmail accounts like a Ginzu knife and made most of my other filters irrelevant. I use my original Gmail account (200GB premium version) as a “bucket” for all of my Evernote (premium account) stuff that I scan everyday with my Fujitsu ScanSnap and my private Google Apps (premier edition) account for the “real” email that I need to read/view/reply to.

The Lifehacker Gmail Filters will add value to both of my Gmail accounts – that until now have made me crazy with different filter and label schemes.

Good on ya’ Gina!
