Google has demonstrated new mobile editing capabilities for Google Docs on the Android platform and the iPad. Slated for a broad roll-out in the next few weeks, Google said co-workers around the world will soon be able to co-edit files simultaneously from an even wider array of devices.
 “Only cloud computing is able to deliver the whole package of productivity-enhancing collaboration, superior reliability and virtually unlimited scale at a price that’s affordable for any size organization. Our Atmosphere event is a nice opportunity to step back and fully appreciate the power of the cloud with customers and future customers alike,” Dave Girouard, President, Google Enterprise, said in a blog post.
The Internet giant hosted over 300 CIOs and IT professionals from around the world in Paris at Google Atmosphere, its annual European event dedicated to cloud computing. This year, the central discussion at Atmosphere focused on how companies can benefit from the breakthroughs in productivity and security that cloud-based applications are uniquely capable of delivering.
The event also marked another milestone for Google, with over three million businesses having “gone Google” with Google Apps and 30 million users within businesses, schools and organizations depending on the company's messaging and collaboration tools. |
