Google software

[koocha]

Just wonder how much 'software' Gogle has out there that we don't know about?

For example, yesterday I found out about http://spreadsheets.google.com for the first time.

Anymore people know about?

Not exactly software, but Google Checkout has gone live - maybe PayPal might rethink their fees now?

Http://checkout.google.com

http://checkout.google.com
lets you buy stuff from online stores using a single account from google, sort of a cross between MSN passport and Amazon marketplace I think.

Edit: Beat me to it!

The next version of Picasa is under beta testing - allows photo sharing (bit like flickr). You need to sign up and then wait for an invitation though. Picasa is great for basic photo-editing though - especially like the rotation feature (it gives you a grid so that you can level the horizon)



They are also doing a mail service for ppl who have their own domains (so you don't need to pay for a mail hosting package...

I guess everyone knows about sketchup by now?

Yes, theres a "from Google" image at the bottom of the page

Picasa is great, i use it for general viwing etc of all my photos. It's RAW processing isn't the greatest (no surprise there), but i does view them whish is good.
