Calandar & managing documents

I have been testing out a few different options for us to share calandar appointments and submit documents or spreadsheets for member contribution. At first I was considering a static solution but a more dynamic solution is available called Google apps.

We would all have to have a GMail email account to use it but it seems to be relatively easy to set up. We would each have an email like shane@herdingcats.com

Has anyone ever used Google apps before? It also has built in IM (instant messaging) and free voice conferencing so if we cant make a meeting in person we could set up to talk virtually online.

More to come later ...Shane

Welcome to your new BLOG fellow Brampton Cluster Rotarians

Here it is guys! This is the beginning of your new collaboration platform. It's yours to do with whatever you please. Use it to ask questions of your Area Governor (or was that Assistant Governor -I can't remember) or post your ideas for a new simplified grant project, or just ask questions of your peer Presidents -whatever floats your boat.

I'm here if you have any technical questions about how to use the site. Remember, the BLOG is yours to utilize so the more input you provide the better it becomes.

Good luck and happy blogging!
