100% web technologies have many advantages for customers over legacy software and server technologies, but the ability to access improvements without doing any work is particularly important. By simply refreshing the browser, new features just show up without any complex software patching or hardware upgrades. This is how software should “just work”, and the power of the cloud makes it possible.

Because of this rapid acceleration of innovation, we wanted to make it easier for customers to keep up-to-date with what’s new in Google Apps. For nearly real-time information, administrators and users can follow along through RSS, email alerts or Twitter. This year, we also began hosting periodic “quarter in review” webinars to sum up what recently launched. If you’d like a refresher on previous quarters’ developments, you’re welcome to watch the replays on YouTube.

Next Wednesday I’ll be hosting the Q4 2010 recap where you’ll hear about powerful new features like mobile document editing, automatic email prioritization in Gmail, new mobile device security capabilities, granular application policy controls, the addition of more than 60 additional applications from Google and much, much more. I hope you’ll be able to join me next week.

Register to attend the live webinar on December 22, 10am PST / 1pm EST / 6pm GMT.
