Chrome - now with awesome printer window

No longer just a pop-up window, the Printer window now has a full preview automatically and tells you the most important piece of information upfront and in bold: 2 sheets of paper.  Now if it could just fix that problem where you print a webpage and one line of text prints on the next page automatically.... then it'd be perfect.  Really though.  more great and amazing work from the google people.  (new chrome start page is also nice.  apple launchpadesque (expect a lawsuit).

adding a Post Title in Blogger doesn't tilt screen, which is nice

For some reason in Blogger I can now type in the post title box and it doesn't bring up a full screen distraction window.  It's quite nice and easy to click on a box and then type in it.... unlike a certain Google Docs application I might mention.....

Tasks in iGoogle edits like a document - Brilliant!

Just using tasks and was surprised to learn that the app treats the tasks like a continuous text document, rather than disconnected tasks.  There's no easy way to explain this in human language, but the idea is absolutely brilliant.  It's so much easier to manage.  Make a big block of text, paste it in.  Separate it into tasks, push enter, recombine tasks, push delete.  So easy and so very very clever.  Well played once again, Google.  Sneaky though.

Google, I love you but you never send me any free stuff

Products you have that I'd love to try and then blog about:

 - Google Book Reader

 - Nexus-S (or any Android smartphone that's contract free)

 - Chromebook

 - Auto-drive car (I hate driving and would be glad to get in on the ground floor of this one)

 - Street view bicycle (okay, so I don't really need to try this one, but it would be fun)

 - Street view car (I think this falls into the same category as the previous)

 - Google Artificial Human Body (pretty sure this is what they have planned for Sergei's brain) (worth it) (also an obvious extension of the "android" project, duhrrr)



PS: I think the new amazing video view that comes up at the end of youtube videos now is long called for and absolutely FANTASTIC!
