It's Tuesday, and it feels like it should be Friday. Anyone with me?
Personally, I spent the morning running around my apartment in my bathrobe, knee-high boots on for protection and a broom in hand, while Cupcake played "catch and release" with an icky mouse. We spent an hour trying to get it to a point where I could dispose of the little sucker but by the time all the furniture was moved away from the walls of my bedroom, my "cat" had let him get away. I am a little afraid of what I'm going to come home to later.
Now, finally in the office with coffee in my belly, I can breathe. Or I could until my friend sent along this link: http://www.google.com/campaigns/gonegoogle/demos.html
And I cannot stop laughing.
It's probably a little extra funny since my day has been off to such a rough start, but it is pretty darn awesome.
What is it you ask?
Well, Google has created a place where companies can get a sense of all the great Apps Google has to offer once a company has "gone Google." The demo at the link above provides an example of how the collaboration process works in Google Docs in particular. Google has built the demo so that the user can write and collaborate with six famous dead authors--Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, Emily Dickinson, William Shakespeare, Fredrich Nietzsche, and Fyodor Dostoyevsky.
While there is a bit of repetitiveness that can occur as you use it, some of the changes these authors make to your document are quite hilarious.
My personal favorite: When Edgar Allen Poe popped in and wrote "I wish I could write as mysteriously as a cat."
'Nuff said.
