Google rolled out a new experiment called Social Search , which shows search results based on relevance determined by people in your social circle. Unreal!

You can try Google Social Search out in Google Labs. Here’s a video that explains more…

Google determines your social circle by analyzing the friends in your Google profile, Gmail, and even people following you on Twitter. You must be signed in to your Google account in order for it to work. I’m a huge fan of this feature!

Google Apps for business is an excellent program to use for your small business’s email, shared calendar, and shared documents.

I use Google apps for my domain and absolutely love it. The coolest part is that it allows you to have your domain email address like: luke@lukehubbard.com

And unlike most basic email services that are free with your domain name purchase, Google apps take email to a new level with its Gmail format and functionality. 

If you’re thinking about spending a significant amount on Microsoft Exchange for your small business, think again! Google Apps is free and offers upgrades to follow you as your business grows. If you’re a small business, cut some costs and go with Google Apps excellent services, which I like better than the services for purchase anyway.

Most impressive, Google Apps will work on your SmartPhone, Blackberry, iPhone, etc!
