Munjal Shah burst the Google buying out Rumour balloon in his recent post. Well that’s good. I agree and I am sure Munjal has a big vision for his company and can go far without the help of any big company for now.
Technorati Tags: Riya, photosearch, GoogleSo ofcourse, I am still waiting for Google Calendar! But I found two new features in Google Mail today. One is Automatic Vacation Response and the other one is Groups feature for Gmail Contacts (sorry, no links here).
Both of them are really handy features, especially when you are using your Gmail address as your main email tool. I even use Gmail for work purposes. So let’s see Automatic Vacation Response First. So we can setup the vacation response settings and either configure to send the vacation message to everybody or to only people who are on my contact list.
The second one will become my favourite I think. It is groups for contacts. See the images below.
We can select the contact that we want to put in a group and click on "Add to group" button on the top. If you pull down the menu there is an option of "new group" there. So name the group and that’s it. So from the screen above I created a group called "Daily Titbits" and added 6 contacts in it. In the screen below you see the group created called "Daily titbits" which includes the contacts that I added above.
Now what I have to do is when I compose the message, I just have to write "Daily titbits" and all the 6 contacts will be loaded. Isn’t this faster and fun! Ofcourse this feature will save me time and increase my productivity. Also once I set up the groups the chances that I will forget to email somebody (who should be part of the group) the needed content will be reduced to minimal. So enjoy this nice features. But Google Calendar, where are you?

Technorati Tags: Gmail, tools, Google, web tools, emailI must have missed the release of Blogjet 1.6, but not this time. I found out today that Blogjet 1.6.1 is released (this one now supports MSN Spaces). Don’t know what Blogjet is? Blogjet is a tool that can be used to blog directly to your blogs without even going to the web interface. Blogjet can be integrated in Firefox or into Internet Explorer. Right click in a window while in Firefox and just click on “Blogjet This” and you are on the go to create a blog
.One feature that I was really looking forward too was Group Posting into multiple blogs at once. As I maintain multiple blogs ( www.itejas.com is the other one), there are times when I want to same information there too, so this should come handy. Other new features include as belows:-
I will try to post this on my other blog using the Group Posting feature and see how it goes. One feature I would like to see is creation and insertion of Technorati Tags. I think that will definately come in handy.
