Doodle 4 Google
Unbelievable. I wish I had this type of creativity. Take a look at these designs.
Doodle 4 Google is a competition where we invite K-12 students to reinvent Google’s homepage logo. This year we asked U.S. kids to doodle around the theme “What if…?”Our winning doodle, selected from over 16,000 entries, was created by Grace Moon, a 6th grader at Canyon Middle School from Castro Valley, California. Grace’s lovely doodle, “Up in the Clouds,” will grace our homepage, Google.com, on May 22nd, 2008.

Google Presentations Adds PDF Export
I started using Google Documents because of a hard drive failure that left me without MS Office for about a month. Within a week, I realized I didn’t even need Office because of services like Google Documents and Zamzar.
Being an avid user of pretty much every Google app, I now use Google Documents to store many important Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. One of my main issues with using Google Presentations for PowerPoint files, however, was the inability to save my presentations back to a format I could work with off the web. After the latest round of feature updates, which includes PDF export, vector shapes, and better printing options, Google Presentations just got a little more practical for me.
Do freelancers even need MS Office for compatibility reasons? Are many people using the advanced features of Office document formats that would make upload to Google Documents or conversion to PDF difficult?

Apparently I use Google a Lot
I’ve had a Google account since I signed up for Gmail a little over two and a half years ago. Since then I’ve made extensive use of Google Documents, Reader, Mail, Calendar, Apps on Your Domain, and of course, Search. Now I knew I used Search heavily, but never knew exactly how addicted I was until I took a look at my web history this afternoon and saw what you see in the graphic to the right.
Somehow I’ve managed to search Google over 26,000 times since I enabled web history on July 25, 2005. I think I may have a problem.
