Are you taking advantage of Google's free tools?

Docs:
You no
longer need desktop publishing applications installed on your computer
to type out documents or create spreadsheets, you can do it entirely
online with Google and they're available on any computer with an
Internet connection. You can also invite others to log-in and edit the
same document you have started.
Calendar: This time-management web application gives you an online calendar. Let your co-workers, family, and friends see your calendar and schedules. Customizable reminders help you stay on schedule. You can choose to be notified by email or get a text message sent to your mobile phone to remind you of appointments.
Analytics
- An excellent free service that generates detailed statistics about visitors to your website. Who goes to your site, and how often? How many viewers go to how
many pages? What's the average length of time per visit? Google
Analytics answers these questions and more for free and is a must to help you buy the right keywords for pay-per-click campaigns. (This feature requires a basic knowledge of html to install tracking code.)
Picasa: Use this online software to organize and manipulate
your digital photographs in online albums. Users can download a photo editing and management program to their
desktops which makes it easy to mail, upload or post photos to a blog.
Trends: This tool allows
users to track searches over city, region or country to see when
certain topics were of more interest to browsers. Users can also take a
look at Hot Trends which displays the most popular searches over the
past hour.
Notebook: When you surf the Web, do you copy text, pictures,
addresses, phone numbers, Web addresses, or other information into a
word processing or e-mail document - only to lose the information when
you need to find it again? As its
name implies, Google Notebook is designed to hold snippets of
information that you collect in your travels around cyberspace.
