Our friends at Google have just released a new free tool Called Google Calendar. Here’s the basic run down of features from the horses mouth:

 

• Seeing the big picture
  With Google Calendar, you can see your friends’ and family’s schedules right next to your own; quickly add events mentioned in Gmail conversations or saved in other calendar applications; and add other interesting events that you find online.

• Sharing events and calendars
  You decide who can see your calendar and which details they can view. Planning an event? You can create invitations, send reminders and keep track of RSVPs right inside Google Calendar. Organizations can promote events, too.
• Staying on schedule
  You can set up automatic event reminders, including SMS notifications, and instantly bring up anything on your calendar with the built-in search tool.

 I may well use this for business purposes as it’s a great way to schedule work with employees.

I came across this nifty little tool today by a company called Griffin Technology. Basically their software called Ifill, fills up your ipod for you with your favourite streaming radio stations while you sleep!

The description of their software is:

“iFill streams mp3 files from thousands of free radio stations directly to your iPod. You can choose several stations at once and select from many different genres. And since iFill goes directly to your iPod, it won’t clutter up your hard drive with extra files.

iFill is a great fit for your active lifestyle. With iFill, you can go to bed while charging your iPod, and wake up to an iPod full of new music, ready to go jogging with you, and without having to search through your record collection, browse the iTunes Store, or rip any CDs.”

I’ve yet to try it out but thats because I don’t have an Ipod - Yet!

Google have launched a free software tool you can use to manage your Adwords campaign from your desktop, although you need to apply to use it at the moment as it is in BETA:

Personally I use Adwords Dominator as it provides some great features above and beyond anything else out there. For example you can see ads you previously deleted so you don’t go and try the same ad text again when your split testing!
