Thanks to Mr. Mayo's 8th graders, who made the suggestion, and Mark Wagner's prompting to create a wiki -- here is a wiki for interested people to start dreaming about a Google school in connectioin with Google's 10 to the 100th project. The deadline is Oct. 20. Basic guidelines are: * Reach: How many people would this idea affect? * Depth: How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need? * Attainability: Can this idea be implemented within a year or two? * Efficiency: How simple and cost-effective is your idea? * Longevity: How long will the idea's impact last?

Google Inc. is releasing its own Web browser in a long-anticipated move aimed at countering the dominance of Microsoft Corp.'s Internet Explorer and ensuring easy access to its market-leading search engine. The Mountain View-based company took the unusual step of announcing its latest product on the Labor Day holiday after it prematurely sent out a comic book drawn up to herald the new browser's arrival. The free browser, called "Chrome," is supposed to be available for downloading Tuesday in more than 100 countries for computers running on Microsoft's Windows operating system. Google said it's still working on versions compatible with Apple Inc.'s Mac computer and the Linux operating system.

Firefox only (Windows/Mac/Linux): The Send to Google Docs Firefox extension adds an entry to your right-click menu to send supported filetypes directly to Google Docs. The new entry is context sensitive, so it only appears when you right click supported filetypes, which include Word docs, PDFs, PowerPoint, Excel, and every Open Document format. You've been able to open Gmail attachments in Google Docs for quite a while now, but this extension bridges the gap and makes Google Docs that much more of a viable, web-based Microsoft Office replacement. Send to Google Docs is free, works wherever Firefox does.
