In this comparative cost model, McAfee finds that the typical small- to medium-business (SMB) will significantly reduce its IT costs by doing away with its on-premise technology and moving to the cloud. <br><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-Cqe_GwUXmU4/UIrEQNtl5bI/AAAAAAAAArw/3VTIvrjNH2w/s1600/mcafee_cloud.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="291" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-Cqe_GwUXmU4/UIrEQNtl5bI/AAAAAAAAArw/3VTIvrjNH2w/s400/mcafee_cloud.png" width="400"></a></div><br>For example, a business with 16-100 computers can expect to save 37% by moving to the cloud – even if there’s no IT labor reduction.

Because SMBs are more flexible in their decision-making and aren't bogged down by legacy costs, they're able to choose an IT system that best suits their business.

That translates to tremendous savings that can be redirected to improving our programs for kids. </p><p>At the end of the day, while we are working to improve the health and well-being of children by increasing opportunities for physical activity and safe, meaningful play, Google is helping our team access the technology they need to transform recess in the communities that need it the most. </p> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.html?hl=en'> <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:Playworks Transforms more than Recess with Chromebooks and Apps&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.html?hl=en&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/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.html?hl=en'> <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/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/playworks-transforms-more-than-recess.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/Chrome?hl=en' rel='tag'> Chrome </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Chrome%20OS?hl=en' rel='tag'> Chrome OS </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Chromebooks%20for%20Education?hl=en' rel='tag'> Chromebooks for Education </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/education?hl=en' rel='tag'> education </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3508259863898765863' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/one-click-to-docs-sheets-and-slides.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='One click to Docs, Sheets, and Slides'> One click to Docs, Sheets, and Slides </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, October 23, 2012 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Jonathan Rochelle, Director of Product Management</span><br><br><i>(Cross-posted from the <a href="http://googledrive.blogspot.com/2012/10/one-click-to-docs-sheets-and-slides.html">Google Drive Blog</a>.)</i> <br><br> Google Drive is a place where you can create, share, collaborate and keep all your stuff.

Map-based information is useful for any business that relies on a fleet of vehicles, employees who travel, or other mobile resources. To help organizations build their own location-enabled applications, we're launching two new APIs:<br /><ul><li>Google Maps Tracks API allows an organization to build applications that can store, display and analyze GPS data on a map. The API is built on top of Google’s reliable cloud infrastructure and offers specialized features such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo-fence">geo-fencing</a>.</li><li>Google Maps Geolocation API enables an application or device to determine its own location without the use of GPS by looking up the locations of nearby wifi access points and cell towers. By limiting GPS usage, a device can save battery life and work indoors or in remote areas.</li></ul><br />The Google Maps Tracks and Geolocation APIs allow an organization to develop customized location-based applications to meet specific business needs. The Google Maps Tracks API, for example, can provide a fleet management company with tools for analyzing data from past and present deliveries. By seeing routing information on a familiar Google Map, they can determine which routes can save time and fuel. Using the Google Maps Geolocation API, the fleet management company can equip its vehicles with advanced positioning capabilities. Even in dense city blocks where GPS dropout is common, a dispatcher can still locate its fleet. <br /><br />The Google Maps Tracks API allows businesses to take advantage of a technique called geo-fencing, where a company can create a virtual region on a map to notify a device when it enters or exits a predefined area. For example, the same fleet management company could set up notifications that would automatically alert drivers whenever they were 10 miles outside their delivery territory and need to turn around. Automated notifications could reduce dependence on a central dispatcher, allowing the delivery company to use their employees more efficiently. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-U6rQDLOeT30/UH65VTM36GI/AAAAAAAAKAU/nfikQOG2uVs/s1600/tracks-api.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="243" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-U6rQDLOeT30/UH65VTM36GI/AAAAAAAAKAU/nfikQOG2uVs/s400/tracks-api.jpg" width="400"></a></div> Today, more than 800,000 developers worldwide use Google Maps APIs to create their own applications based on the <a href="http://www.morethanamap.com/?utm_source=tracksapi&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=entblog">unique capabilities</a> of Google Maps.

A versatile and affordable option, it’s been a smooth transition to Google Maps – it’s both intuitive for our customers and flexible for our developers. </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.html?hl=en'> <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:Bitro connects with the world with the Google Maps API&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.html?hl=en&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/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.html?hl=en'> <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/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/bitro-connects-with-world-with-google.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/customer%20love?hl=en' rel='tag'> customer love </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Maps?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Maps </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Maps%20API?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Maps API </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4071415237109336234' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/reselling-google-apps-becomes-even.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Reselling Google Apps becomes even easier'> Reselling Google Apps becomes even easier </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Wednesday, October 10, 2012 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Jaideep Mirchandani, Product Manager, Google Enterprise</span><br><br>For IT service providers and channel tools developers looking for a way to scale their businesses, we built a new Reseller API to let you integrate and automate components of the Google Apps reseller tools into your own customer and sales systems.

You can even switch between languages with one click. <br><br><center><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixS0HHOgOOgBigzHNgsGZoCGr1fOBLcgI1EnJrs7m0I7u79-9oKAbfbQ0Jrl5HHoZZS8OqR05r4vTwkgcJ6DUMeu0nUTccc8sD83gRmruH8JMUpIbFWU1Gc-wCEuSDibNhLureD11OqJ8/s1600/input1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixS0HHOgOOgBigzHNgsGZoCGr1fOBLcgI1EnJrs7m0I7u79-9oKAbfbQ0Jrl5HHoZZS8OqR05r4vTwkgcJ6DUMeu0nUTccc8sD83gRmruH8JMUpIbFWU1Gc-wCEuSDibNhLureD11OqJ8/s1600/input1.png" width="500" /></a></center><br>To try it out, check the box next to <b>Enable input tools</b> under <b>Language</b> in <b>Settings</b>. <br><br>Once you’ve enabled it, you’ll see the Input Tools icon next to the Settings button in your toolbar, and you can <a href="http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=139576">turn on and off any Input Tool</a> from there. <br><br><center><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_WLgYK-Pn6BSWdf-IWUBrE2_TULM77nWHpZ3uMIRgdi4TiV9fV0gjX_deiNLWnEhhGLgbRkeCl-TedE7E1tzKpskJ2lY16dslp4DBGxyOKo2l5uwasdkTvnCD4gyjWiGVUEP7d3Ao9Fk/s1600/input2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_WLgYK-Pn6BSWdf-IWUBrE2_TULM77nWHpZ3uMIRgdi4TiV9fV0gjX_deiNLWnEhhGLgbRkeCl-TedE7E1tzKpskJ2lY16dslp4DBGxyOKo2l5uwasdkTvnCD4gyjWiGVUEP7d3Ao9Fk/s1600/input2.png" width="400" /></a></center><br>With these new virtual keyboards, Gmail supports typing in 75 languages—a big jump from the five languages that were initially supported when we <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/email-in-indian-languages.html">introduced Indic transliteration</a> in Gmail in 2009. <br><br>Gmail’s users are from all over the world—and language should never get in the way of a good conversation.

Now, instead of having to flatten that data, you can keep your data in a hierarchical format when you import to BigQuery. <br /> </li><li><b>Additional improvements</b>: </li><ul><li>Increased import quotas from 1000 jobs per day to 1000 jobs per table per day, and boosted the file size limit from 4GB to 100GB </li><li>Faster data exports from BigQuery to Google Cloud Storage, by enabling large tables to be exported as multiple files in parallel </li><li>Permanently save common queries in the BigQuery interface </li></ul></ul><br />To learn more about how Google BigQuery can help you gain insights from your data in the cloud, click <a href="http://cloud.google.com/bigquery">here</a> to sign up.</div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.html?hl=en'> <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:Google BigQuery updates: Faster, easier and more data formats&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.html?hl=en&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/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.html?hl=en'> <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='1' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/google-bigquery-updates-faster-easier.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/bigquery?hl=en' rel='tag'> bigquery </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/cloud%20platform?hl=en' rel='tag'> cloud platform </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/cloud%20services?hl=en' rel='tag'> cloud services </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='6556733830828965398' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2012/10/handsome-coffee-brews-its-way-to.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Handsome Coffee brews its way to success with Google Apps for Business'> Handsome Coffee brews its way to success with Google Apps for Business </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, October 1, 2012 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Mike Hudson, Creative Director of Handsome Coffee Roasters</span> <br><br><i><b>Editors note:</b> To celebrate National Coffee Day, today’s guest blogger is Mike Hudson, Creative Director of <a href="http://www.handsomecoffee.com/">Handsome Coffee</a> Roasters, an artisan coffee company headquartered in Los Angeles, CA.
