Business news tv: Google reveals their inhouse products

More expert business advice from inside the offices of Google, as European Enterprise Director Roberto Solimene, reveals the tech tools they use, as well as the thinking that’s behind it and how they are able to work much smarter:

“We use exactly the same products and this was one of the points of Larry and Sergey and Eric before we even launched the Google Apps they wanted to be sure that they were using as a company exactly the same kind of products.

Somewhat interesting although I didn't really take anything away from this video

I found this really interesting. I'm not up to speed with these sorts of developments but it sounds like these latest ones are really easy-to-use consumer applications that will continue to make communicating on all sorts of levels very simple. Yay!
