The guys over at google are always introducing great new products and apps. But it’s not always the products they introduce, but how they introduce or educate you about them. Check out this video from Google Russia showing what you can do with gmail. It happens to be in russian, but it’s still a great video to watch.
For more info and detail into this video, check out the blog post from google’s blog.
I’ve been playing with Twitter clients over the past few days, trying to see which one would best serve my needs. Here are the results of what I’ve found. Oh yeah - obligatory twitter page pimp.
Before I dive into the various clients, I’ll first say that I found them all to be pretty easy to use as well as pretty much the same. There really aren’t any big differentiators. They’re all bubbly, web 2.0, with pretty much the same interface right down to the icons. There are differences in how you configure them, but with how infrequently you go through that I don’t see that as a differentiator.
I’ve been using twitter for a bit over a week now and it’s quite nice. I am still trying to find the right cadence for my tweets (posts to your bloggers). I’m not the “Getting a short, skinny, hazelnut, cappuccino at starbucks”, “Just got up, hope it’s a great day!” kind of person. I try to pass along a bit more value with each tweet. To each his own.
With my short time using twitter I’ve found that they’ve done a good job with the interface, so I decided to do a bit of a review. Check it out, let me know if you agree.
It’s my first foray into this type of post, but I really liked doing it, I think you’ll be seeing more of it.
I just got back from a great conference, Email Evolution, out in San Diego. Ever since joining Bronto Software, myself and DJ Waldow have really been getting involved with the email marketing community out on the internet. DJ especially has been ferocious in his efforts to add something to the already amazing resources that are out there.
We’ve really worked to push Bronto to commit to providing a valuable resource for marketers in general, not just our customers - and it is something that Bronto has now achieved through the combined efforts of our team.
Well this week we finally got to meet up with a number of the other bloggers and industry experts that we have been trading links and blog posts with for the last year or so. (Such as Chad White, Tamara Gielen, and Dylan Boyd just to name a few)
It was fantastic.
This is a really enthusiastic community, after having spent just a few days with everyone it is easy to see that we aren’t driven by competition with each other, but rather cooperation and a genuine love of email marketing.
