But now, Google Mobile has upped the ante by offering mobile editing in Google Docs. Very, very groovy—that feature has been a long time coming, and I love it, even though it’s fairly rudimentary for the time being. Combine all of that with OffiSync—a free Microsoft Office Add-In that lets you open and save files directly to Google Docs—and you’ve got a real winning combination. Now, you can: Use Microsoft Word when you’re at home or work....

We previously looked at the free utility Advanced IP Scanner that you run on your PC. It will scan your network and provide a list of all connected devices and their network name and IP address. The Fing app is similar because it shows you everything connected — from printers to smart plugs — down to the device type and manufacturer. It’s a robust networking tool that works straight from the palm of your hand....

I avoided tangling with the RC too much, because I really wanted the final version to surprise me (if there were reasons for that). And so it did. First of all, because its portable version was available right away – in the case of older versions the portable version was delayed several days. I’m a big fan of portable apps, so imagine my surprise when I’ve hit “Check for updates” and saw that it was already available....

1. Netflix – 1 Month of Free Streaming TV and Movies I first signed up for Netflix about five years ago, back when their main bag was shipping physical discs.

There’s a Netflix app for practically every mobile platform, which lets you watch full TV episodes, movies, documentaries and more on any screen you own....

Step 1 Log in to Google+ and create a new circle called “VIP” or “Favorites.” Step 2 Add people to your Favorites circle. You can also do this in Step 1. For me, my Favorites circle is a combination of the colleagues, friends and family whom I’m most interested in. For this reason, a simple Family, or Friends circle doesn’t really suffice. Step 3 Pull up your Favorites circle in your stream....

Google recently released an early access preview to Android Studio, the next iteration of the Android SDK. A lot of changes are still being put in, and while the project is being finished users are encouraged to continue using the current version for the time being, but be prepared to migrate soon. What’s new so far? Good question! The best piece of news is that Eclipse is being left in the dust and the entire development environment is being moved over to IntelliJ....

If you’re interested in working on an Google endorsed open-source project, this summer you could take advantage of the Google Summer of Code (GSoC). For the last 6+ years Google has brought together over 4,500 students from 85+ countries to work on open-source software development projects over the summer. Participants who do well, could net $5,000 in cash. The official signup page can be found here. But, before you go gung-ho – you should take a look at the proposal writing guide....

What’s that, you ask? Well, imagine the fact that Google founder Sergey Brin (who was in the event hall with the attendees), was having a live Google Hangout with a few skydivers. All of them were wearing Glass devices while they jumped off a plane and were followed by bikers doing stunts on the roof and, eventually, getting into the hall. The groovy part was that everyone could see the whole thing through their eyes, using the Google glasses....

With the announcement from the Windows Live team on Friday (6/11/2010) I was hoping to see the change already implemented. However, it looks like this is a larger initiative based on the “New Hotmail” and Office 2010 Online launches. Still, in search of a possible date, I went back to the original blog post. About 3/4 the way through, it pretty much says “With our next release.” So for now, the Ad Removal date is TBD until we hear something new....

Now, you can enable Google Docs voice typing and simply speak your entire paper, article, report, or whatever else you need to create. How Google Docs Voice Typing Works? Google integrated voice recognition technology into its Android platform long before they introduced it into Google Docs. Many people prefer speaking out their thoughts rather than typing them. So, it only makes sense Google would enhance the usability of Google Docs by integrating its current voice recognition technology....

If that’s the case, you’ll need to look at how the content of your presentation is presented. Too much text, for instance, can be difficult for your audience to follow. An excellent way to break this down is to use tables, especially for statistics and mathematical data. Google Slides allows you to add tables to your presentation to do just that. If you want to know how to add and edit tables in Google Slides, follow the steps below....
