Gmail is my preferred email interface for lawyering, and I also use Google Apps to maximize my productivity. Although my Gmail account has never been hacked, here are some tips to keep your accounts secure, and if they do get hacked, what you need to restore security. If you are using Gmail as your business account, take the extra 2 minutes and create a password that is more complicated than usual. Elementary advice, but still a precaution worth taking. If your account does get hacked, having the… [read post]

Google has added the ability to insert images in Google Docs Documents by dragging and dropping an image from your computer. Google Docs users could already add images to their documents using the "Insert" menu to select images from their hard drives, by URL, or via a Google Image search to include. (And this method continues to be available.) Currently, the feature works only with the latest version of the Chrome, Firefox, and Safari Web browsers. (Sorry Internet Explorer - although google… [read post]

Clicking a yellow or red dot takes you to a "Service Details" page that outlines the issues surrounding the disruption or outage. Links are also included on the "Service Details" page to "Incident Reports" containing more detailed information abaout the… [read post]

Ah, the circle of Google When I first started practicing, I remember how difficult it was to find and share my research or documents (excuse me… “precedent”). Not to date myself, but the word “blog” wasn’t even universally accepted as a word yet and now there are over 156 million public blogs according to Wikipedia – scary, I know. With so many new and evolving ways to create, share and discover information we decided to go straight to one of the biggest wave makers in this social… [read post]

When Exchange support was added in the iPhone 2.0 software last summer, turning on Exhange Syncing for Contacts or Calendars was an exclusive action.  Once you turned on Exchange Calendars you could no longer sync your calendars on your iPhone with your computer directly.  It appears that in the iPhone 3.0 that this is no longer the case.  I upgraded to the beta of 3.0 last night and when I attempted to setup Google Syncing again with my calendars, I got the screen on the right. Previously,… [read post]

Back in March 2010, Google acquired DocVerse and that company's technology to allow online collaboration on documents using the familiar tools of Microsoft Office. In November 2010, Google announced that it had (re) launched a beta test of the technology to a limited group of testers under the new name Google Cloud Connect. Today, Google Cloud Connect for Microsoft Office is available to all Windows users. By adding, "simultaneous collaboration, revision history, cloud sync, unique URLs and… [read post]

Google, which is undoubtedly the most popular website in the world seems to constantly be challenging the domination of the second-most popular website, Facebook, which is the world’s largest online social network that currently boasts 750 million users. For this reason, Google has been trying to create a social platform of it’s own to rival the social media giant, not just once, but now for the fifth time. First there was Orkut, which was launched one month before Facebook in January of 2004,… [read post]

Earlier this month, I wrote about tracking mentions of yourself on twitter more completly then just checking the @replies tab on twitter (or in tweetdeck).  Keeping tabs on what people say about you in twitter is only one step in effectively tracking references to yourself online. So here's step 2, if you want to really know what people are saying about you online, take the search a step further and check out what is being said about you on blogs. Here is a slightly modified version of the same… [read post]

For the second year in a row, my wife and I participated in Earth Hour. At 8:30 I hit the main breaker in our apartment shutting everything down for an hour. During that time we read together by candlelight and reflected on just how much energy we use on a day to day basis. It was amazing to us how quiet it was without the ambient hum of electronics running, serving our whims, and it was humbling to think how hard it seemed to read by candlelight and how much we rely on technology for every aspect… [read post]

Google has updated the function of its Advanced Search forms to recognize multiple phrases entered into the form's "Find Pages with...the exact words or phrase" box. To search for multiple phrases using the Advanced Search form you must enclose each of the phrases in its own set of quotation marks. Previously, anything entered into this box was treated as a single phrase, even if individual phrases were enclosed in their own quotation marks. To search for a single phrase using this form you do not… [read post]

I got mine on my smartphone today at 3:36 am.  Changes to Google Privacy and Terms of Service it says. To those of us in the library and information retrieval field, Google’s new move is generating a good bit of discussion. Article III of our code of ethics relates to protecting the right to privacy and confidentiality with respect to information.  TS at NetTechBlog posted the following entry earlier this week summarizing the change and its implications…. Is Google getting eviler? Google will… [read post]

An eye popping Associated Press interview with the Man Who Got Google, David Whitaker.  This is a must read, as is his further accounts on his website.  Here’s a couple examples from the AP article: Whitaker credits AdWords with helping the business take off. He recalls talking with a Google representative in Buenos Aires, Argentina, about the anti-aging, bodybuilding and weight-loss products the site was selling. “She did not hesitate at all and wanted to start advertising it right away,”… [read post]

In late December 2010, Google quietly launched (as they so often do) a new Google Labs "experiment" called "Shared Spaces." The official description of Google Shared Spaces describes it this way: Google Shared Spaces allows you to easily create a space with a collaborative gadget and a chat box in it. The gadgets are based on the Wave gadgets technology, so there are already more than 50 gadgets across different categories, like games, productivity, and event planning. Anybody can create a new… [read post]

That's right, I said it, and so far I'm the only one who has. Google has announced that extensions are coming to Google Chrome but have been mum on when. However I saw something today, that indicates the timetable may be short. Google officially opened up registration for Google I/O 2009, their third annual (first one was just called Google Developer Day) Developer's Conference. Like last year, it will take place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Along with the open pre-registration,… [read post]

The Texas Attorney General has been investigating whether Google places its own products over competitors in violation of anti-trust rules. The Texas AG had not filed suit yet and technically still has not filed an anti-trust suit. Instead, we learned this week that the Texas Attorney General sued to force Google to turn over documents related to the probe. Google claims the documents should not be turned over because of the attorney-client privilege. Spinsters will claim Google must have something… [read post]
