Microsoft Office with Google Cloud Connect is a deadly combination for collective multiple users’ experience. The feature highlight is users can simultaneously edit Microsoft Office documents, users can also share and backup too.

The main features are:

1. Collaborative Editing – At the same time multiple persons can edit the same document. The person is added as editor. The document is then shared using Gmail. The other persons’ have to download the document for editing. Any change made by one person will be reflected in all of the collaborators.
2. Revision History – This is a very useful feature that avoids cluttering of the same document in multiple names to keep earlier versions. It tracks, manages and synchronizes all the changes made in a document. You can view it from the Settings. You can easily restore to a previous version without changing windows or opening new documents.
3. Share a Document – You can share your document with any number of people. You can specify the access level for each person. You can make it public or restricted to a group of people by changing the visibility options.
4. Resolving Overlapping Edits – You can easily resolve overlapping edits. If one user has made edits which have not been synchronized, when another user edited the same object, a pop up windows will appear indicating the same.
5. Edit Offline – You can make the required changes and synchronize later. This is helpful when you don’t have an internet connection or access to internet.
6. Syncing to the Cloud – You can synchronize changes from or to the cloud. You can set it at automatic or manual.

Download Google Connect and enhance your Microsoft Office user experience.

On August 25th 2011, it was a big day for all Linux users. It’s 20th birthday, a major milestone for the Linux family.

20 years ago on 25th August 1991, Linux Torvalds wrote to ‘comp.os.minix‘ a UseNet newsgroup using Minix – a UNIX Operating System.

“I’m doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I’d like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things).

I’ve currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to work. This implies that I’ll get something practical within a few months, and I’d like to know what features most people would want. Any suggestions are welcome, but I won’t promise I’ll implement them

Linus (torvalds@kruuna.helsinki.fi)

PS. Yes – it’s free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs. It is NOT portable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never will support anything other than AT-harddisks, as that’s all I have .”

He just started it has his hobby, but Linux has grown from what it was then back in 1991. From big and small hosting companies, ATM’s, smart phones and even the common desktop/laptop users, you can see Linux almost everywhere. It’s an “apple of an eye” equally for a so called techie or geek, developers and common computer users. Now days laptops too come with preinstalled Linux OS.

Just like picking a ice cream flavor of your choice, you can pick your favorite Linux distro – RedHat, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, Mandriva, Puppy Linux and the list goes on. These have further custom spins of Linux. You’ll have a version of Linux even to support on computer with the lowest specifications.

People have lost the fear of using Linux. It’s no longer just a command line window without graphical user interface. You can have anything with just a click faster than on Windows. Bug fixes and updates are much faster. Common release cycles happen on between a 6 months to 1 year which keeps its upto date.

Linux has hope for the future to come, a sun shining far away. One day we can hope to see Linux along with the top industry players like Apple and Microsoft.
Best wishes for the future. Belated birthday wishes Linux.
