In an age of information overload, people often talk about the importance of multi-tasking. This can be an effective way to survive the constant onslaught of information, but you have to wonder: does multi-tasking take away from our ability to do great work? How can we actually come up with ideas and think them through if we don’t have dedicated time to focus? Perhaps we need to change the way we operate so we can we not just get things done, but instead do great work?<br /><br />In Do More Great Work I suggest you can divide everything you do into three simple but powerful categories: <br /><br /><br /><br /><ul><br /><li><span style="font-weight:bold;">Bad Work:</span> Often called bureaucracy - excess rules, excessive processes, pointless meetings. Sadly, it often comes standard as part of your job. <br /><li><span style="font-weight:bold;">Good Work:</span> Productive, efficient and focused, this is the bulk of what you do. It’s also at the heart of how your organization succeeds - which means that “good work” is essential. The challenge is there's almost always more Good Work to do than there is time in the day - it sometimes seems that your time is spent just trying not to get further behind.<br /><li><span style="font-weight:bold;">Great Work:</span> The work that makes a difference and that has meaning. It’s what you were hoping for when you signed up for the job. It’s both exciting and engaging - and a little scary and uncertain. <br /></ul><br />What you're looking for is a better work diet, one that has you making an impact and doing work with more meaning. What you want is more Great Work - and less of the other stuff.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />Simple recipes for success</span><br /><br />A few simple techniques and some good tools - like Google Apps - will help you make sure you're doing more great work.<br /><br />1. <span style="font-weight:bold;">Define your Great Work Project</span><br /><br />Before kicking off 2011, take the time to think about the one or two Great Work projects you want to work on. Define where you you want to truly invest your time and effort, your hard work and brain power. Establish a goal that will stretch and challenge you. Set your Great Work Project for the year: how it starts, who else needs to be involved, what success looks like, when it will be completed. Use your Great Work Project as the foundation of a memorable, challenging and interesting year.<br /><br />2. <span style="font-weight:bold;">Keep what matters top of mind</span><br /><br />Use Calendar and Gmail to prioritize your day. Begin the day by identifying your One Plus Two. First, determine one action that must happen to move your Great Work forward. Then add another two actions that, if you get to them, will be an added bonus. This gives you both focus and flexibility.<br /><br />Add these three actions as an all-day event at the top of your Google Calendar. That way they’re front-and-center every time you look at your calendar, and serve to remind you to focus on what matters.<br /><br />If you haven’t gotten to those important actions by mid-day, use labels in Gmail to label any incoming email related to your One Plus Two activities. Then, as the day unfolds and when information is coming at you from all directions, you’ll be able to identify the high priority emails that need your attention.<br /><br />3. <span style="font-weight:bold;">Good work takes collaboration</span><br /><br />There are talented people on your team, in your business division and your company. Great Work is often the product of many people sharing ideas and working together. Google Apps makes this easy. Instead of creating a document and working alone, start a Google document and share it with members of your team. With real-time collaboration you can edit documents, spreadsheets and presentations simultaneously, or leave comments and suggestions in the margins.<br /><br />We all know how hard it can be sometimes to find a time when everyone can meet in person. Rather than setting up a meeting or clogging up your co-workers inboxes with another email, try using Google Talk or video chat to quickly ask a question.<br /><br />If you prioritize, set aside the time and collaborate with talented peers, instead of trying to do everything, you may just find that you do Great Work. <br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Michael Bungay Stanier, author of Do More Great Work</span> </script> <noscript> <span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Editor’s note:</span> Continuing our Gaining Altitude series, we’ve invited guest blogger Michael Bungay Stanier, the author of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Do-More-Great-Work-Busywork/dp/0761156445/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1291694563&sr=1-1">Do More Great Work: Stop the Busywork and Start the Work that Matters.</a></span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQvWpfTWePI/AAAAAAAAAKA/yJvHvdeQ3lM/s1600/screen-capture-7.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551766973929912562" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQvWpfTWePI/AAAAAAAAAKA/yJvHvdeQ3lM/s400/screen-capture-7.png" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 149px; height: 240px;"></a>Do you ever feel that your work life consists mostly of meetings and email, while the all real, important work needs to be squeezed into the gaps?

While many IT vendors have now adopted (or co-opted) the term “cloud computing” to describe a wide variety of technologies, most don’t deliver on the true promise of the cloud. Hosting single-tenant server products in a data center is not cloud computing. Nor is requiring customers to install thick client software. These solutions lock-in customers to multi-year release cycles, leave them with the significant costs of managing client software, and expose sensitive data on insecure devices. In 2011, we are committed to moving beyond the current notion of cloud computing to bring customers to a world we call 100% web.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">100% web</span><br />In a 100% web world, business applications are delivered over the Internet and accessed in a web browser. The applications and the data are stored centrally and are designed to be served from a highly scalable, secure and reliable multi-tenant infrastructure. Devices like notebooks, tablets, and smartphones are portals to the data that help people be productive from anywhere, at any time. Upgrades aren’t necessary to get access to the latest innovation, just refresh the browser. Businesses no longer own or manage servers and client software: they purchase integrated applications and development platforms from others, and now devote their valuable time to business logic and features that create competitive advantage.<br /><br />We are investing in a variety of technologies so that companies can be productive with nothing but the web:<br /><ul><li><a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">Google Apps</a> is the world’s most popular suite of web-based communication and collaboration applications, and includes email, instant messaging, calendaring, documents, sites, video sharing, Postini services and <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/11/ten-times-more-applications-for-google.html">dozens more</a>.

But the more we talk with customers the more we realize that this is the change they’ve been waiting for. It is the ultimate extension of the cloud computing model, and it brings substantial benefits for companies that no other IT model can provide in terms of simplicity, cost, security, flexibility, and pace of innovation.

In 2011, we are committed to moving beyond the current notion of cloud computing to bring customers to a world we call 100% web.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">100% web</span><br />In a 100% web world, business applications are delivered over the Internet and accessed in a web browser. The applications and the data are stored centrally and are designed to be served from a highly scalable, secure and reliable multi-tenant infrastructure. Devices like notebooks, tablets, and smartphones are portals to the data that help people be productive from anywhere, at any time. Upgrades aren’t necessary to get access to the latest innovation, just refresh the browser. Businesses no longer own or manage servers and client software: they purchase integrated applications and development platforms from others, and now devote their valuable time to business logic and features that create competitive advantage.<br /><br />We are investing in a variety of technologies so that companies can be productive with nothing but the web:<br /><ul><li><a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">Google Apps</a> is the world’s most popular suite of web-based communication and collaboration applications, and includes email, instant messaging, calendaring, documents, sites, video sharing, Postini services and <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/11/ten-times-more-applications-for-google.html">dozens more</a>.

Chrome has become 300% faster in just two years, and adoption has tripled over the last year. This week we announced <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/12/chrome-is-ready-for-business.html">new features</a> for Chrome to make managing enterprise deployments easy. Also, companies using older versions of Internet Explorer for their legacy applications can use <a href="http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">Google Chrome Frame</a> to access modern web apps that rely on technologies like HTML5.</li><li><a href="//www.google.com/chromeos/#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">Google Chrome OS</a> is a new operating system designed from the ground up for 100% web. By building an operating system that is essentially a browser, we can make computers faster, much simpler and fundamentally more secure. Last Tuesday, we announced the Chrome notebook Pilot program (<a href="//www.google.com/chromeos/pilot-program.html#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">apply to pilot</a>) and Chrome devices for business will be available for purchase in 2011.</li></ul><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_HD84rP3mKC4/TQo8m7icXkI/AAAAAAAAA5M/DTFmXt90rxY/s1600/web.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5551316130202410562" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_HD84rP3mKC4/TQo8m7icXkI/AAAAAAAAA5M/DTFmXt90rxY/s400/web.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 259px;"></a><br /><br />While many companies are able to jump right to 100% web, we understand that other larger businesses have substantial investments in legacy technology. So we’re also investing in solutions that bridge existing technologies to the world of 100% web:<br /><ul><li><a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/11/bridge-to-cloud-google-cloud-connect.html#utm_campaign=100web&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-100web_12162010&utm_medium=blog">Google Cloud Connect for Microsoft Office</a> allows people to continue to use the familiar Office interface (including Office 2003, 2007, and 2010), while reaping many of the benefits of web-based collaboration that Google Docs users already enjoy.

But the more we talk with customers the more we realize that this is the change they’ve been waiting for. It is the ultimate extension of the cloud computing model, and it brings substantial benefits for companies that no other IT model can provide in terms of simplicity, cost, security, flexibility, and pace of innovation. If 2010 was the year of the cloud, 2011 looks to be the year of nothing but the web.<br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Dave Girouard, President, Google Enterprise</span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Nothing but the web&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='18' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/nothing-but-web.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/100%25%20web' rel='tag'> 100% web </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/cloud%20computing' rel='tag'> cloud computing </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps' rel='tag'> Google Apps </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/innovation' rel='tag'> innovation </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/viewpoint' rel='tag'> viewpoint </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3548247883218313835' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/announcing-google-earth-enterprise-41.html' itemprop='url' title='Announcing Google Earth Enterprise 4.1'> Announcing Google Earth Enterprise 4.1 </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Wednesday, December 15, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Back in August we announced <a href="http://http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/08/google-earth-enterprise-40-now.html">Google Earth Enterprise 4.0</a>.

Missing a story could mean missing an opportunity. That’s why we’re pleased to make <a href="http://news.google.com/">Google News</a> available with your Google Apps account.<br /><br />Google News is a computer-generated news site that aggregates headlines from news sources worldwide, groups similar stories together, and displays them according to your personalized interests.

To enable this feature for your domain, select the Mail Delegation checkbox under Email Settings in the control panel.<br /><br />With businesses and schools continuing the rapid move to the cloud, we are committed to continually releasing features like this that help streamline migration and constantly enrich the Google Apps experience.<br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Hari Nidumolu, Software Engineer</span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Email delegation now for all customers&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='13' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/email-delegation-now-for-all-customers.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='7279402206026149935' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/live-webcast-this-thursday-google-on.html' itemprop='url' title='Live webcast this Thursday: “Google on Google”'> Live webcast this Thursday: “Google on Google” </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, December 14, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Have you ever been curious about how we run our business on Google’s products? <a href="http://webcasts.techrepublic.com.com/abstract.aspx?docid=2352379">Join us Thursday</a> for a live webcast with Julie Pearl, a Director in Google's Corporate Engineering group.

Our products include fibers, resins, and a wide range of chemicals and accessories used in manufacturing. We have distribution centers serving over 8,000 customers across North America and Asia, and we strive to provide the best quality materials, exceptional service, and personalized support<br /><br />We had been using Novell Groupwise for over 15 years, but maintaining it was becoming increasingly costly and cumbersome. We had separate file servers in more than 30 distribution centers, and keeping up-to-date with Groupwise required major upgrades to all servers involving license renewals and significant IT department resources. In addition to the cost and maintenance issues, end-users weren’t satisfied with the functionality of Groupwise. They wanted the features they were accustomed to having in the products they used in their personal lives.<br /><br />We began looking for a solution that would provide improved functionality, better support of mobile devices, and cost savings. We put together a 10 year cost of ownership model for Google Apps and we came out way ahead by moving to Google Apps. With many of our employees on the road, we needed better mobile access to communication and collaboration tools. We started to see how much Google Apps would improve our ability to remotely and operate more efficiently. Several employees, including our IT team members, already used Gmail outside of work. After talking to IT executives and CIOs already using Google Apps, who gave very positive reviews, we successfully pitched the idea of moving to Google Apps to the executive team.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.cloudsherpas.com/">Cloud Sherpas</a>, a Google Apps partner, helped us get started with a small pilot for two months, and then roll Google Apps out incrementally to the entire organization. Cloud Sherpas helped with the migration process and initial training sessions. Overall, our roll-out went smoothly and people picked up Google Apps quickly.<br /><br />One of the biggest benefits to the business we’ve seen is the creation and sharing of calendar for transfer truck routes allow for easy identification for transporting inventory as needed.<br /><br />Moving to Google Apps has allowed us to increase productivity, give our employees better access to tools from the road, and save money. Our employees are working together with better applications, and our IT department spends less time maintaining servers and updating software on servers all over the country. Google Apps has become essential to the daily operations of our business.<br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Hal Greene, Director of Information Systems, Composites One</span> </script> <noscript> <span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Editor’s Note:</span> As part of our Going Google Everywhere series, we’ve invited guest blogger, Hal Greene, Director of Information Systems, at <a href="http://www.compositesone.com/">Composites One</a> to talk about his experience “going Google.” Learn more about other organizations that have gone Google on our <a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/spreadtheword.html#utm_campaign=gogoogle&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-GoingGoogleEverywhere_12142010&utm_medium=blog">community map</a> or test drive life in the cloud with the <a href="http://www.gonegoogle.com/#utm_campaign=gogoogle&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-GoingGoogleEverywhere_1214010&utm_medium=blog">Go Google Cloud Calculator</a>. </span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQfDoQTo3iI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/VFAJb_x0_0g/s1600/screen-capture-1.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550620162096946722" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQfDoQTo3iI/AAAAAAAAAJ4/VFAJb_x0_0g/s400/screen-capture-1.png" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 135px; height: 113px;"></a>Composites One is the leading distributor of composites materials.

We had separate file servers in more than 30 distribution centers, and keeping up-to-date with Groupwise required major upgrades to all servers involving license renewals and significant IT department resources. In addition to the cost and maintenance issues, end-users weren’t satisfied with the functionality of Groupwise. They wanted the features they were accustomed to having in the products they used in their personal lives.<br /><br />We began looking for a solution that would provide improved functionality, better support of mobile devices, and cost savings. We put together a 10 year cost of ownership model for Google Apps and we came out way ahead by moving to Google Apps. With many of our employees on the road, we needed better mobile access to communication and collaboration tools. We started to see how much Google Apps would improve our ability to remotely and operate more efficiently. Several employees, including our IT team members, already used Gmail outside of work. After talking to IT executives and CIOs already using Google Apps, who gave very positive reviews, we successfully pitched the idea of moving to Google Apps to the executive team.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.cloudsherpas.com/">Cloud Sherpas</a>, a Google Apps partner, helped us get started with a small pilot for two months, and then roll Google Apps out incrementally to the entire organization. Cloud Sherpas helped with the migration process and initial training sessions. Overall, our roll-out went smoothly and people picked up Google Apps quickly.<br /><br />One of the biggest benefits to the business we’ve seen is the creation and sharing of calendar for transfer truck routes allow for easy identification for transporting inventory as needed.<br /><br />Moving to Google Apps has allowed us to increase productivity, give our employees better access to tools from the road, and save money. Our employees are working together with better applications, and our IT department spends less time maintaining servers and updating software on servers all over the country. Google Apps has become essential to the daily operations of our business.<br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Hal Greene, Director of Information Systems, Composites One</span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Composites One moves to Google Apps for increased productivity and improved collaboration&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='3' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/composites-one-moves-to-google-apps-for.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/gonegoogle' rel='tag'> gonegoogle </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps' rel='tag'> Google Apps </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/guest%20post' rel='tag'> guest post </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='5903290662645645076' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2010/12/now-available-with-google-apps.html' itemprop='url' title='Now available with Google Apps: DoubleClick for Publishers'> Now available with Google Apps: DoubleClick for Publishers </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, December 14, 2010 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQes-RWGqvI/AAAAAAAAAII/E9fLsE-5_1w/s1600/app_sphere_doubleclick.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550595251565406962" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQes-RWGqvI/AAAAAAAAAII/E9fLsE-5_1w/app_sphere_doubleclick.png" style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px;"></a><br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Editor’s note:</span> We recently <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/11/ten-times-more-applications-for-google.html">launched an improvement</a> that makes over 60 additional Google services available to Google Apps users. <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/search/label/%23moregoogleapps">This series</a> showcases what’s new and how your organization can benefit.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Welcome to DoubleClick for Publishers</span><br />For millions of online publishers—from the smallest blogger to the largest entertainment, news, e-commerce and information sites—online advertising revenue is vital.

Every second of every day, you have difficult decisions about what ads to show and how to measure their relative performance. For example:<br /><ul><li>In the same ad space, a surfboard wax advertiser wants to run a static image ad for your Australian readers, while an airline offering flights to Hawaii wants to run an expandable interactive ad for your American readers.</li><br /><li>A fast-food restaurant wants to run its burger ads before noon and its pizza ads in the afternoon.</li><br /><li>You've sold 10 different surfboard makers a million ad slots at slightly different prices; now you have to allocate them across your various webpages to fulfill all these orders over the next two weeks.</li><br /><li>One of your surfing tournament reviews is linked to by a popular news site and you have a surge in traffic. Your sales team couldn't predict this, so you’re left without any ads for thousands of readers. You want to fill this ad space by selling it via an ad network that has ads available.</li></ul><br />These examples illustrate how complicated it can be to optimize ad serving on your website, and they only scratch the surface.<br /><br />DFP comes in two flavors, tailored for different publishers' needs: DoubleClick for Publishers, for the largest online publishers, and DFP Small Business, a simple, free version designed for growing online publishers.

We are a grocery retail chain with over 200 stores in the Southeast and have more than 4,500 teammates who utilize e-mail in our corporate offices, retail locations, and on the road. We had been using our previous email system for about ten years, but when it came time to upgrade we evaluated our evolving needs and what we would need to grow our business in the future. While cost was an initial priority, we quickly realized that collaboration was even more more critical to our success.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQZ2qOWcOAI/AAAAAAAAAJw/y_nNdoT9oz8/s1600/screen-capture-4.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550254058559518722" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfdGq25uiVg/TQZ2qOWcOAI/AAAAAAAAAJw/y_nNdoT9oz8/s400/screen-capture-4.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 296px;"></a><br />With our previous solution, we struggled to enable communication with our retail stores, with teammates who frequently travel, and even between teams in the corporate office. We also have a lot of manual and time consuming processes and knew that in order to push our business forward, we needed a better solution. So though cost is what initially led BI-LO to Google Apps, a growing focus on enabling collaboration and empowering our teammates is what convinced us that Apps was the best product with the best features for our growing needs.<br /><br />Prior to deploying Apps, we structured our IT department so that one group supported intranet applications and a separate group was responsible for email. Since we really wanted to improve collaboration and support our users, working from any location, we decided to form a collaboration team. Since moving to Google Apps this fall, this team is focused less on fixing email issues and managing infrastructure and more on improving our business processes and helping people be more productive.<br /><br />With the creation of this new team and the help of Cloud Sherpas, a Google Apps reseller, moving to Google Apps has been relatively painless. We migrated data and went live with all 1,500 corporate teammates in less than 90 days (our Executive Leadership migrated successfully in the first 30 days). We were worried that the transition would be difficult for end-users, but we’ve found most of the issues to be minor and that teammates are adopting new products like Docs and Sites before we’ve even announced them.<br /><br />Teammates who are always on the road love having web-based access to email and documents that are easily shared across teams. We’ve started to replace manual, paper-based processes and expensive applications with Google Docs and Sites. Teammates in our corporate offices used to spend hours calling or emailing stores to ask them about on-going promotions, inventory and recall issues; as they are adopting the forms feature in Google Docs, we’re seeing those processes improve dramatically. We have also replaced several of our old email-based applications, like ethics disclosure, with Google Docs and forms.<br /><br />Making sure our teams had access to the information they needed was also a big challenge before Google Apps. Now, with Google Sites, it’s easy. We moved our entire corporate intranet to Google Sites, and this has allowed us to give our teammates on the road easy and secure access to company information via the web. We’ve set up the intranet so that our users log in to their Google Apps accounts from the home page of the intranet. This ensures that they always see the most up to date company news and events every day. We posted our most recent commercial on the intranet and our CEO is planning to use Google Video to post announcements. Much of this information sharing had previously been done over email or costly meetings, but this way, we’re sure that everyone has seen important updates and news.<br /><br />Google Apps has enabled our company to be more collaborative and more productive. Workflows previously handled by IT, like creating content for the intranet, can now be done organically by teammates. Work that used to be done repetitively and manually is now done automatically and instantly using Google forms and shared spreadsheets. Best of all, our teammates are enjoying the ease of access to all their communication and collaboration tools provided by Google Apps. The CEO and the CFO have both stated, “please don’t make us go back.” We don’t plan to. We’ve seen so many improvements since moving to Apps, and we’re just getting started. <br /><br /><span class="byline-author">Posted by Carol Dewitt, CIO, BI-LO</span> </script> <noscript> <span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Editor's note:</span> Over 3 million businesses have adopted <a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html#utm_campaign=gogoogle&utm_source=en-entblog-na-us-GoingGoogleEverywhere_12132010&utm_medium=blog">Google Apps</a>.

Whether you’ve invested time and energy in developing web content that brings in tons of traffic or would just like another income stream to support your business’s online presence, there is a solution for you that now works with your Google Apps account: <a href="https://www.google.com/adsense?sourceid=aso&subid=na-en-et-appxblog&utm_medium=blog&utm_source=aso&utm_campaign=na-en-et-appxblog">Google AdSense</a>.<br /><br />Google AdSense enables millions of website owners of all sizes to display relevant ads alongside their online content. AdSense taps into Google’s vast network of local and international advertisers so there is great variety in ads, and Google technology selects ads <a href="//www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=9713">specifically targeted</a> for your website and visitors. By allowing advertisers to compete to display ads you can easily monetize traffic to your website and earn revenue.<br /><br />Setting up an AdSense account is <a href="//www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/topic.py?hl=en&topic=8422">easy and free</a>. As soon as you set up your account you can begin to place ads on your website. AdSense provides actionable data to help maximize your revenue, rich controls to protect your brand, and other helpful resources to improve your efficiency in managing and optimizing your revenue streams.<br /><br /><object height="328" width="540"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/iAceed8sW1o?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/iAceed8sW1o?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="540" height="328"></embed></object><br /><br />AdSense is simple to set up, you just have to add a few lines of code to the HTML of your site and you’re ready to start displaying ads.

Now, Apps users can access their cloud-based productivity applications, along with AdSense, using the same account.

As an Apps user, you will now be able to seamlessly control your AdSense ads, as well as view a wide range of descriptive statistics and graphs about your ad performance using your existing Google Apps account.<br /><br /><a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQZ4rz1XDfI/AAAAAAAAAIA/L6aDRsBGHLA/s1600/image2.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550256284824440306" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQZ4rz1XDfI/AAAAAAAAAIA/L6aDRsBGHLA/image2.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 500px;"></a><br /><br />Just like Google Apps, AdSense runs in Google’s cloud so you get easy access from anywhere without any software to install or hardware for IT to maintain.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Learn more and get started</span><br /><a href="https://www.google.com/adsense?sourceid=aso&subid=na-en-et-appxblog&utm_medium=blog&utm_source=aso&utm_campaign=na-en-et-appxblog">Google AdSense</a> can be enabled by your domain administrator from the Google Apps Control Panel at <span style="font-weight:bold;">https://www.google.com/a/[your_domain.com]</span> (replace [your_domain.com] with your actual domain name).

In fact, the data equivalent of 250,000 years of DVD-quality video is created every two days, which is more than the entire amount of digital information that was created from the birth of the world up to 2003. Users are faced with the challenge of wading through all of this data to find the information they are looking for, and businesses are faced with the challenge of making this easy to do for their customers and employees. Most businesses consolidate their information on a public-facing website, internal micro-sites, product blogs and customer portals to help visitors surface relevant content. But even with this type of organization and structure, information can still be difficult to locate. That’s why we are pleased to introduce Google Apps customers to a product that will make finding easy for their employees and for their customers: <a href="//www.google.com/cse/">Google Custom Search</a>. <br /><br />Google Custom Search brings the power, speed and relevance of Google.com to any website through a hosted search bar.<br /><br /><a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQJzE-ND_7I/AAAAAAAAAHw/_gm40UgUNbQ/s1600/altostrat_cse_01.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549124220128329650" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_4S6buKKlhfQ/TQJzE-ND_7I/AAAAAAAAAHw/_gm40UgUNbQ/altostrat_cse_01.png" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 500px;"></a><br />Custom Search allows visitors to your site to scour your web pages in fractions of a second with the same speed and familiarity that they are used to when performing a search on Google.com.
