Google and Sun

The Inquirer(not the Enquirer), has confirmed that Google is a go on Online Office.
The deal will allow Google to enable online users’ access to Star Office through a browser.
Another part of the deal, will bundle the Google Toolbar as an optional install with the Java Runtime Environment.
Sounds like M$ could be in some big trouble here. Check out the webcast of the original announcement.

And the article form The Inquirer-
Google formally declares war on Microsoft

 


Google: Has taken over the moon!!

google moon
As if google didn’t have a giant grasp on the entire planet Earth already; but now they have conquered the moon.
Using images from NASA, they have extended google maps to show you the moon, and some of the landing sites from the Apollo Missions.
I will only be impressed, if I am able to use Google Local to plan a trip to the local grocery store, with a quick stop at the landing site of Apollo 12.

Okay–this is hilarious. Zoom in all the way
and see how cheesy this is!

Gmaps Api

Google has released the API for Google Maps. This api allows you to display maps on you own pages, and do things like add routes, icons, and information tabs. This is actually pretty easy to use, and all you need to do is apply for your own API key, and copy the example api code into any html page. If you need to see a working example, check the very bottom of this page, and you will see it at work(and where I work)REMOVED–Check the Google site. Pretty nifty trick. And if you are a blogger on blogspot, it is as easy as pasting the correct code into your template.

Click here for the API goodness!
