Just started playing around with the Google apps that are available (many for free, and many not requiring a log in).
VERY COOL!
If you use Chrome as your browser click the + sign as shown in the picture below.
You can see the following page pop-up. Well…..these are MY apps, yours will look slightly different. 🙂
Click on the Chrome Web Store app icon in the top left. This will bring you to a new world of apps that you can access on your computer.
You can see the categories on the left. Anything from Education to Extensions and everything in between. Sweeeeet.
I grabbed a few preparing for this blog entry.
“Angry Birds” wanted access to my Google information…..NOPE…I ain’t gonna do that.
“NY Times” gives me the “Top News” of the day for free in a very newspaper like format. COOL.
Summary
I have a feeling I will be searching for more apps and using them during the day (when I am on my computer…at night I am still a child of TV).
Give them a try!
Oh yeah….if you are not using Chrome as your web browser, you should use it! Super FAST, secure, and now you can get all sorts of cool apps. IE is crap (the interface is sooo confusing, and it is sooooo slow….)
