Fons Tuinstra's home » Why comparing Google+, Twitter and Facebook becomes irrelevant (updated) | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it

Announcing Google Drive Site Publishing - Google Apps Developer Blog

Announcing Google Drive Site Publishing - Google Apps Developer Blog | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it

Would you like to programmatically publish some web content? Or let your users do so in the context of your Drive app?

This is possible now with Google Drive. Your app can now insert static web assets in a publicly shared folder, and then serve those files directly to users via file names in a relative path. Google Drive site publishing supports JavaScript, so it's even possible to run a JavaScript Drive app directly from Drive.

Could Google Become The New Microsoft Of Cloud IT? | CloudTweaks

Could Google Become The New Microsoft Of Cloud IT? | CloudTweaks | GooglePlus Expertise | Scoop.it
Could Google Become The New Microsoft Of Cloud IT?

For the past 15 years, Microsoft has been the unquestionable king of business IT. As the market leader in both workstation and server operating systems, Microsoft set the standard and controlled the experience for a generation of both IT professionals and general computer users. Today, even with explosive growth of tech companies like Apple, Citrix, Red Hat, IBM, and VMware, Microsoft maintains a ridiculously large share of the worldwide PC OS market (92%), approximately four fifths of the enterprise office productivity market, and a healthy plurality of server OS sales (48%).

No other company has ever come close to achieving the level of overall IT dominance that Microsoft has, and it’s unlikely that any new company will in the foreseeable future.
