Google Tools

I've been playing around lately with a couple of cool Google tools, Google Earth and Google Analytics.

Google Earth is a geographic program that enables you to see your destination from a satellite's view. It's a cool program to use for traveling, because you can actually check out to see what your destination looks like before you even get there. It has tilt and "fly-by" features, making you feel like you're Superman!

Google Analytics is another free tool that enables you to track traffic to your website. I was interested to check out the statistics on our webpage. I found out that we get traffic from all over the world and that the most visited page on our site is the Amazing Race audition video site. Go figure. The reports dashboard shows where the hits are coming from and which countries visit the site. Great web management tool.

Other Google resources that I use: Gmail, Blogger, and Picasa. I also use Google Mobile for my wireless enabled PDA.
