The Google Blog has a recent post entitled ‘Overview of our Accessible Services‘. Last time I looked at Google’s search code (which was only last week actually) I remember it being a particularly messy mix of invalid HTML and table soup (but this is Google: who for some reason are exempt from producing structureless mark-up […]

Yahoo! Australia and Channel Seven seemed to have teamed up to create Yahoo! 7. To me that sounds like an Enid Blyton-esque series about a bunch of seven young hooligans who like drinking Bundy on the gold coast. I wonder when this happened? I only left Australia in November! Of course it makes sense for […]

Another week, another new Google product, another new post about Google product.
Google Calender has finally been released to the public, and it looks very slick. But one surprise with it is that the developers behind it have actually created some valid HTML. Google Calendar even has a doctype! Perhaps the days of Google’s notoriously bad […]

I don’t check my Hotmail very often anymore (since switching to Gmail quite a while ago), but I did today just to clear the alerts I keep getting from MSN Messenger (where most of my IM contacts are). I noticed a fairly garish and green button inviting me to check out Live Mail Beta and […]

The Official Google Blog has just posted about Joga - gives a good overview of what’s on offer there. Joga is still in ‘invite only’ mode though; so the world may have to wait to see my hot football skills (ahem!).

Well, I got an invite to check out Google Page Creator today. The good news is I doubt this will threaten my career; the bad news is… actually, there isn’t really any bad news (except perhaps some of the tacky templates available, but to be fair, they look pretty slick compared to the good old […]

Google and Nike - perhaps a less than obvious pairing - have launched Joga (via Slashdot), which purports to be social networking site for Football fans around the world. Of course at the moment its got the usual ‘Invite Only’ status everyone has come to know when it comes to new Google products.

Google have just announced an Autosave feature for Gmail.
We spent 20 minutes writing this entry, and then the browser crashed. Good thing there’s auto-save. It saves. Automatically.
