Isn't it amazing how you can find new things in the most ridiculous places? This is not one of those times, however I did find something cool in a place where I should have expected it... Google.
It just occurred to me that micro-blogging on twitter etc is going to be short lived and therefore we shouldn't get too attached to it. However it's not the microness of twitter that we like; it's the ease at which we can be heard.
So why aren't we using proper blogs and just making them easier to upload your info to?
I am writing this from my iGoogle page in a Blogger App. It's great, a little small and has simple text editing functioanlity. So it'snot perfect.
You know why I like it?
It gives me the ability to blog at the drop of a hat and not have to actually go the blogger site to do so.
This brings me to my idea about great things.
My idea is that great things are those that enable you to do what you need to do without having to go anywhere to do it. You following me?
This is one of those ideas. I have twitter (probably not for long, but anyway), Facebook and Blogger all next to each other on the same page.
I can write this, post it and twitter and facebook status it without leaving this page. It's incredibly convenient and will probably help keeping my blogs shorter, as even I can get a bit bored with my longer posts.
So here it is. There is heaps of free stuff available on the iGoogle homepage.
If you are not keen on iGoogle in your business, then lets have a chat about SharePoint. Email me at mark.ehlers@evolveit.com.au.
