Gmail grows up with offline e-mail access
Gmail grows up with offline e-mail access
Significantly increasing the utility and competitiveness of its Web-based e-mail service, Google is enabling an experimental ability to read, write, and search Gmail messages even while not connected to the network.
Google believes almost religiously in cloud computing, the idea that computer applications and data live on the Internet rather than on PCs. But there are times when the network is inaccessible, and generally Web-based applications like today's Gmail effectively seize up under those circumstances.
Offline sidesteps that problem, the classic example being a busy executive traveling on a plane. And offline Gmail access begins a new chapter for Google's ambition to appeal to business customers for services such as Google Apps, of which Gmail is a component.
"This is a feature we've heard loud and clear the enterprise wants," said Todd Jackson, Gmail's product manager.
In coming days, Google will let Gmail users test the Web-based e-mail service even when there's no network.
(Credit: Google)Trying to sign up business customers generally means wooing them away from the dominant e-mail products, Microsoft's Exchange server software and Outlook PC software. Google and Microsoft began in separate spheres, but are ever-closer competitive rivals, each with a strong cash-generating business that can be used to subsidize forays into other markets.
There's more, too. Google Apps customers will get another major offline option "soon," too: Google Calendar access, though not initially the ability to create new entries. If the organization's administrator enables the "New Features" option, each person within that organization will get access to the calendar, Google said.
New features help make Gmail more compelling for business customers, but for many, a bigger problem is the fact that Gmail still sports its beta tag, said Gartner analyst David Smith.
"That's one of the biggest stumbling blocks for businesses," Smith said. "You're hard-pressed to find any businesses who decide to go into production with anything that a vendor calls beta, no matter how good it is." Google promises customers will get 99.9 percent availability through a service level agreement for Google Apps, which includes Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Docs.
Cloud vs. PC
And Microsoft, while not turning on a dime, isn't counting on a future that consists exclusively of PC-based Office. It already has a product, Office Live Workspace that lets users share and view--but not edit--Office documents online, and the next version of Office will run in a browser.
Philosophically, though, Microsoft remains firmly tethered to the PC, while Google wants to move as fast as possible to Web-based applications.
"We think the browser is the ideal platform for deploying all kinds of applications. That's where Google is placing its bet," Jackson said. "But people are traditionally limited by the speed and connectivity of the Internet. We want to fill in those gaps."
Google already developed open-source technology called Gears that helps further this cloud computing agenda by storing Web data on PC, and Gmail, used by millions, could help coax more people to install Gears. That, in turn, could help solve the chicken-and-egg problem that currently means it's not worthwhile for most Web application programmers to build in Gears support.
Greater Gears support could help other cloud-computing companies, including Zoho, which already has offline access for its Web-based e-mail application.
It's not as if offline Gmail were completely impossible. People can set up software such as Outlook or Thunderbird to read and write e-mails, for example. But offline Gmail means people won't have to learn a new interface.
Offline Gmail has been in testing for months, though Jackson wouldn't share specifics about exactly how long.
What can offline Gmail do?
"We wanted the user experience to be almost identical to the experience you get when you're online," Jackson said.
Offline Gmail stores a copy of a user's inbox on a personal computer. Most people will have to install it, a process Google walks you through, but it's built into Google's Chrome browser.
Once Gears is installed and offline access is enabled, the software automatically detects when a person's network connection is working. If the network is good, Gmail works as usual. If it's bad, it goes into offline mode, sending unsent messages and retrieving new ones when the connection is restored.
And if the network is dodgy, a person can use the intermediate "flaky connection mode," which for example queues a message to be sent immediately by storing it to the hard drive then actually sends it as soon as it can. Google positions this as useful for coffee shops and poaching a neighbor's weak-signal wireless network, but I think of this as "tech conference mode."
When enabled, offline Gmail begins by downloading, in the background, a copy of a user's archive to the user's personal computer. But the software stores about 10,000 e-mails, so heavy users won't get a complete archive.
Gmail automatically updates the local cache of messages with new and recently read items and with messages associated with a particular label on which a person has clicked, Jackson said.
Imperfect
Not everything works, though.
One big missing piece is the ability to add attachments to new messages, though attachments are visible with existing messages.
Another is the contacts tab, so forget about managing e-mail lists or adding new addresses while offline. The autocomplete option works, though, so there's no need to start remembering e-mail addresses.
English-speaking Gmail users will be able to enable offline access as Google gradually adds the ability over the next "couple" of days, said Gmail engineer Andy Palay in a blog post. "Offline Gmail is still an early experimental feature, so don't be surprised if you run into some kinks that haven't been completely ironed out yet," Palay said.
What kinds of problems occur?
"We've seen issues with the local cache getting out of sync. You have to refresh the browser, and that gets you going again," Jackson said. "In some rare circumstance, it has to be fully flushed, so we ask to disable and re-enable the feature."
But these should be unusual problems, he said: "It's been in testing for awhile on all 20,000 Googlers, so it's gotten some good testing."

Seven worthy Google Notebook replacements
With Thursday's news that Google is discontinuing development on its Notebook service, it may leave a few people looking for a viable replacement. The good news is that there are a handful of really solid products that do the same thing, and in some cases--do it better. Here's a list of seven of our favorites, in no particular order.
1. Evernote
Evernote has a few big things going for it, the main one being its cross-platform architecture which lets you access and add to your Evernotes from multiple devices. It also has optical character recognition, which means any photos you send in will be scanned for text, which gets indexed for searching.
Serious desktop users will most likely want to download the local client, which enables you to create and edit notes even when you don't have an Internet connection. There's also a browser plug-in that lets you clip entire Web pages, or simply bits of them, to save for later.
If you want to get at Evernote on your phone there are clients for both the iPhone and Windows Mobile handsets. Both let you access your notes collection and create new ones right from your device. This includes things like voice messages and snapshots from your phone's built-in camera and microphone.
The service is free to use up to a certain amount of data per month, which you can easily go over if you intend to use it for archiving high-resolution photo scans or for storing large files. However, if you're just using it for quick notes, and a few photos and Web clippings you'll be well under the limit.
Shortly after the news that Google Notebook was ceasing development, Evernote announced it would soon be providing an escape hatch for users to export their stuff over to Evernote free of charge.
2. Zoho Notebook
Zoho's Notebook is probably one of the best services for ex-Google Notebookers to flock to if only for its collaborative features. Several people can work on the same notebook at once, and it combines a handful of Zoho's other Web productivity services into one place. For instance, you can drop in a presentation from Zoho Show, add a video from YouTube, Viddler, Vimeo, or any other site that uses embed code, as well as upload files from your desktop to share or squirrel away on Zoho's servers.
Additionally there's live chat with other Zoho users and collaborators, voice recording, and the capability to link to other notebooks within any notebook.
Its learning curve may be a bit steep for Google Notebook users unfamiliar with other Zoho products, but one thing that might help is the optional browser extension (for IE and Firefox) that lets users clip bits of Web pages to send to specific notebooks.
3. Clipmarks
If you were never really big into Google Notebook's writing feature, you'll probably dig Clipmarks. Once installed in your browser you can start clipping bits and pieces of any page you're on. These get stored in a central archive that you're able to search and browse through from any computer.
Like Google Notebook, Clipmarks lets you team up with other people to create a repository for various clippings. You can group together with these folks and send certain clippings to the shared space right when you're clipping them.
Where Clipmarks trumps Google Notebook is with its sharing, by letting you publish your clipping for the entire Clipmarks community to see and comment on.
4. Ubernote
Ubernote is right up there in both matching and surpassing the utility of Google Notebook. Like Google Notebook you can use it to grab bits and pieces of pages you're on, or simply as a storage space for collaborative writing and bookmarking. It also employs tags to let you sort and search through your content.
Ubernote works in all major browsers, has both an installable toolbar and a bookmarklet that lets you do the clipping. You can access it from the Web or on your mobile phone, and everything you create can be shared with others both in public and private groups.
One thing that makes Ubernote particularly attractive is that it lets you download your notes as an HTML file. This can be squirreled away on your hard drive or as an attachment in an e-mail due to its small size.
5. Springnote
Springnote takes a wiki-like approach to group notebooks. Like Google's effort you can keep a notebook personal or work on it with others. It's also entirely Web-based and employs tags and a quick search engine that lets you browse and sort through your work.
Springnote offers a much richer text editor than Google Notebook does. Like Zoho Notebook it also lets you insert all sorts of random media objects from anywhere on the Web or from your desktop. This includes document files that can be converted into Springnote notebooks. Like Ubernote, notebooks can be exported into HTML files for archiving or sharing.
In addition to its Web editor, there's also a free iPhone application that lets you view and edit your Springnote pages. You can use it to send photos you've taken to any one of your notebooks.
Springnote's one limitation is the 2GB cap per account, which you might run up on quickly if you're using it to store media files.
6. Delicious
If you were using Google Notebook specifically to save and share bookmarks you'll likely be pleased with Yahoo's Delicious service. It's got a huge user base, and a really excellent browser plug-in that lets you access your Web bookmarks just like they were on your local machine.
Like Google Notebook, the power of Delicious revolves around its tagging system. In Delicious' case you get the added benefit of the community, so if you're saving a site that other people have visited and tagged you can see what tags they used, and pick them for yourself.
Two things that Delicious is not able to do that you might have used Google Notebook for is saving bits and pieces of sites you're on, and creating and editing text. For that you're better off with one of the tools above.
7. Magnolia
Magnolia, like Delicious, is focused on communal bookmarking. Magnolia's big claim to fame is that it uses both tags and a five-star system that lets users rate various bookmarks. It also has groups by interest, where users can pool together related groupmarks for others to reference.
If you liked that Google Notebook saved pages you clipped in a "timeless" state, you'll dig that Magnolia does the same thing, except with entire pages at the time you bookmark them. It doesn't work on every site, but is a great way to link to something that may not be up forever.
Again, like with Delicious, you're missing out on the option to make a task list or jot anything down--it's purely for bookmarks.
Got any we missed? Leave them in the comments.
CCleaner sweeps up after Google Chrome
The latest CCleaner update now clears Internet data from Chrome.
At first they tried Google's Chrome browser out of curiosity. Now, the growing ranks of those who have switched to Chrome (or vacillate, like CNET's own Stephen Shankland) will be looking for browser support services and add-ons to complete the transition.
The latest version of the free, solid Internet privacy application CCleaner is one app to oblige. In late December, it added Chrome to its list of supported browsers, along with Internet Explorer, Mozilla/Firefox, Safari, and Opera.
CCleaner actually reaches deeper in Chrome than in Opera and Safari, dumping the download history and saved form information in addition to cookies, Internet history, and Internet cache. Of course, Internet history has become more virtue than vice as a searching time-saver, and any of the cleaning options may be easily skipped from the scan.
We're glad to see the well-regarded CCleaner taking Chrome on board at this relatively early stage, and we hope other developers soon follow suit.
Making sense of Live Mesh - 5GB free space with Sync
On Tuesday, Microsoft officially spilled the beans on its Live Mesh service for synchronizing data and connecting multiple devices. If your eyes are glossing over from all the mentions of seamlessness, synchronization, and software plus services, here's our best attempt at making sense of things.What is Live Mesh?
At its most basic level it combines downloadable software and a cloud-based service to synchronize and share data and applications among different devices.
How does it work?
In large part, it uses the notion of feeds to go beyond a Web site and also to describe both data and devices.
What can it do today?
Basically two main things: It allows folders of files to be synchronized among a number of Windows PCs and to the cloud. It also enables a simple, free way to do a remote desktop with another PC in your mesh.
What's promised but not there right now?
There are a bunch of things being talked about that are not part of the current beta. Chief among that is support for other devices. Although Microsoft is billing the Mesh as a way to connect various devices, right now it only works with Windows PCs. Support for Macs and Windows Mobile devices is due soon.
Live Mesh is also billed as a way of allowing offline applications to synchronize data among multiple users and for online applications to work offline and synchronize data back up to the cloud. However, Microsoft is not providing any Mesh-ed applications as part of this release, nor is it ready with the development tools needed for outsiders to write Mesh-connected applications.
When can I get it?
Microsoft is running a closed beta for about 10,000 people right now, including attendees at the Mix '08 trade show as well as this week's Web 2.0 Expo. A broader beta is planned for around the time of this fall's Professional Developers Conference.
What is the cost?
For now, the service is free, offering 5GB of online storage, with unlimited peer-to-peer data.
So, what is the business model?
Microsoft said it is still sorting that out. Among the models under consideration are subscription-based models, advertising-based approaches, and even micropayments.
Will it work in any browser?
Sort of. Viewing one's Live Mesh can be done from Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari, but the remote desktop feature requires IE and an ActiveX plug-in.
Is this for businesses or just consumers?
The current release is really aimed at consumers, but Microsoft insists the architecture of the service is designed to meet business needs for security and other issues. Down the road, Microsoft plans to offer a way for businesses to have the "cloud" part of the data stored on the company's own servers, probably for a fee.
What services compete with Live Mesh?
For now, Live Mesh competes with a whole host of services that offer either online file storage and sharing, remote PC access, or both. That group includes folks like Box.net, LogMeIn, GoToMyPC, SugarSync, and Microsoft's own FolderShare--to name a few.
Longer term, Microsoft wants Live Mesh to be a platform that developers use to connect both online and offline programs. For that, Microsoft is competing for developers' already fragmented attention with other would-be Web platforms from Facebook, Google, Amazon, Salesforce.com, and others.
EcoMove – Eco Friendly Traveling, i.e. Hire a Cycle
If you travel a lot (using public transport system), and spend whole lot of time on waiting period (say, for bus/train), you might as well want to take cycling as a viable option to cover short distances.
Mumbai based EcoMove is launching rental station network that allows you to hire and return a bicycle.
The project will be first implemented in Mumbai (perfect test bed) and will have 40 locations to start off.
Here is how the system will work:
The EMS system is based on the availability of rental bicycles at key locations. These bicycles will be secured to their bike stands. An EMS registered user can take the bicycle for his use from any of the rental station and can leave the bicycle in the same or any other rental station.
The target market is ofcourse, the office goers/college students/health freaks/short distance travelers; and of course people who want cheaper and faster way to travel.
What's your opinion on Ecomove? Will you use a service like this?

Telecom Roundup: 3G Delayed, 8.1mn GSM subscribers added in Dec, Airtel goes Sri Lanka
Airtel: 2.7 million new subscribers
Vodafone: 2.1 mn
BSNL: 8.7 Lakh
Idea Cellular: 1.49mn
Total # of GSM subscribers - 257.8mn.
3G Delayed
As mentioned earlier, the issue regd base price has resulted in delay of 3G auction.
DoT will put in a new schedule for auctioning which officials said would depend on when the cabinet clears the 3G policy. The original date for the auction of spectrum - radio frequencies that enable wireless communications - was January 16.
DoT has sought its legal advisor’s opinion on whether another change in the reserve price requires the regulator’s approval, under section 11 of the Trai Act, before being presented to the cabinet committee of economic affairs for final clearance. Depending on the legal advice, the matter could then be referred to the law ministry for further consultation. - source
Airtel goes Sri Lanka
Airtel has launched it’s operations in Sri Lanka (3G and 2.5G) - the company is planning to invest $200mn in the ops.
it has entered into a three-year managed network deal with Huawei, partnered with IBM to manage its comprehensive IT infrastructure and application requirements, and selected iSmart Timex as its customer care partner.

DoT rejects proposal to double 3G, BWA base price, says report
The Department of Telecom (DoT), reportedly turned down the proposal by the Finance Ministry to double the base price for 3G and Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) spectrum, says a report from Economic Times.The reason cited for turning down the proposal is that the doubling of base price may lead to reduced interest from industry players to participate in the auction. Also higher base price may lead to increased price of the services for the end-consumer as well.
Earlier last week the finance ministry sought increasing the base price for 3G spectrum to Rs 4040 crore from the current price of Rs 2020 crore and BWA spectrum to be priced Rs 2020 crore from presently priced Rs 1010 crore. Finance Ministry reasoned that in wake of lack of participation from foreign players the auction may not result in expected revenues for the government. Hence by increasing the base price, it will be ensured that the government generates healthy revenues from auction. (Source)

iPhone in India: Nokia Worried? Plans Internet Service in Low Cost Handsets
After Vodafone’s iPhone pre-registration, it’s Airtel’s turn. Now that both the operators have joined the iPhone hype, Nokia has all the reasons to get worried and secure it’s turf.Nokia’s market share in India is ~60% and much of that has been achieved thru’ distribution and operator partnership. iPhone’s entry, expected price point (available for $199 in US, so maybe 10K in India?), and most importantly, the coolness and associated hype-ness can dent Nokia’s market share in India.

3G - Finance Ministry asks DoT to double the reserve price..More Delay?
First there was a delay from foreign bidders, and now finance ministry has asked DoT to double the reserve price for pan-Indian allocation of 3G spectrum to Rs 4,040 crore.
Finance ministry has also asked DoT to double the reserve price for WiMAX services to Rs. 2,000 crores (for pan-India allocation) and has questioned the rationale of limiting the auction of only four slots of spectrum in each circle (source)
If at all the reserve price is increased, expect more delay as companies need to plan for more funds - a vicious cycle that will only benefit state owned BSNL and MTNL.
Govt announces 3G Guidelines – Foreign Players Allowed, Pan India License @ 2240 Crores
Govt. has released 3G guidelines and here is a quick summary:
- Entry of foreign players (need to hold equity of atleast 26%in the JV floated with Indian partner)
- Global auction will be conducted for 3G spectrum and all players having Unified Access Service (UAS) license or those eligible for the license would be allowed to participate.
- 10 slots of spectrum will be available for auction - 3 will be reserved for CDMA (spectrum: 50 MHz, 800 MHz and 1900 MHz frequency band.)
- The spectrum will come with a reserve price of Rs 2,240 crore for a pan-India license.
- The reserve price for a 2×5 Mhz block of spectrum for Mumbai and Delhi (both will have only 2 slots each of 5MHz available for allocation)and category-A shall be Rs160 crore and for Kolkata and category-B Rs80 crore and for category-C Rs30 crore. Spectrum for pan-India license would cost at least Rs2,020 crore.
- BSNL and MTNL have one slot reserved to offer 3G services in their respective circles of operations.
- The operators will be exempt from paying any licence fees for the first year (will be charged one %of AGR (Adjusted Gross Revenue) every year).

Optical Fibre Cut - 19Dec2008
Undersea Cables Cut; 14 Countries Lose Web -- UpdatedReports from the Mediterranean indicate that two of the undersea cables severed and repaired earlier this year have been cut again, disrupting internet access and phone service between the Middle East, Europe, and parts of Asia. An additional third cable is down in the same region.
The cuts are causing traffic to be re-routed through the United States and elsewhere.
Egypt's communications ministry tells the Associated Press that the outage has almost completely killed internet services throughout Egypt.
A second report indicates that the three cables that are out include the SEA-ME-WE 4 cable (also known as SMW4), which went out at 7:28 a.m. local time Friday morning; SEA-ME-WE 3, which went down at 7:33 a.m.; and the FLAG EA cable, which went out at 8:06 a.m. The cables were cut in the region where they run under the sea between Egypt and Italy. They carry an estimated 90 percent of all data traffic between Europe and the Middle East. SMW 3 and SMW 4 are owned by groups of phone companies; FLAG is owned by Reliance Globalcom.
The SMW 4 and FLAG cables were among five undersea cables damaged earlier this year in January and February in the Mediterranean, launching a flurry of conspiracy theories before investigations revealed that at least one of the cuts was caused by a ship's anchor. When those cables went down, SMW 3 was used to re-route traffic. But this time, SMW 3 is reportedly involved in the outage as well.
A France Telecom report listed 14 countries affected by the current problem. The Maldives are 100 percent down, followed by India, which has 82 percent disruption. Qatar, Djibouti and the United Arab Emirates were the next most widely affected areas with about 70 percent service interrupted. Disruptions for Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Pakistan range from 51 percent to 55 percent.
UPDATE: As reader Julian Borg Barthet notes in the comments section, a fourth undersea cable went out Thursday evening in the same region. The cable, the Seabone, is operated by GO and runs between Malta and Sicily. According to the Times of Malta, GO transferred traffic to a second cable operated by Vodafone. It was the second time in four months that the Seabone cable had failed.
Three undersea cables cut: traffic disturbed between Europe and Asia
3 cables cut this morning (Sea Me We3 partly + Sea Me We4 + FLAG)France Telecom Marine cable ship about to depart
PARIS — France Telecom observed today that 3 major underwater cables were cut: “Sea Me We 4” at 7:28am, “Sea Me We3” at 7:33am and FLAG at 8:06am. The causes of the cut, which is located in the Mediterranean between Sicily and Tunisia, on sections linking Sicily to Egypt, remain unclear.
Most of the B to B traffic between Europe and Asia is rerouted through the USA. Traffic from Europe to Algeria and Tunisia is not affected, but traffic from Europe to the Near East and Asia is interrupted to a greater or lesser extent (see country list below).
Part of the internet traffic towards Réunion is affected as well as 50% towards Jordan. A first appraisal at 7:44 am UTC gave an estimate of the following impact on the voice traffic (in percentage of out of service capacity):
· Saudi Arabia: 55% out of service
· Djibouti: 71% out of service
· Egypt: 52% out of service
· United Arab Emirates: 68% out of service
· India: 82% out of service
· Lebanon: 16% out of service
· Malaysia: 42% out of service
· Maldives: 100% out of service
· Pakistan: 51% out of service
· Qatar: 73% out of service
· Syria: 36% out of service
· Taiwan: 39% out of service
· Yemen: 38% out of service
· Zambia: 62% out of service
France Telecom immediately alerted one of the two maintenance boats based in the Mediterranean area, the “Raymond Croze”. This France Telecom Marine cable ship based at Seyne-sur-Mer has received its mobilization order early this afternoon and will cast off tonight at 3:00 am with 20 kilometers spare cable on board. It should be on location on Monday morning for a relief mission.
Priority will be given to the recovery of the Sea Me We4 cable, then on the Sea Me We3.
By December 25th, Sea Me We4 could be operating. By December 31st, the situation should be back to normal.Source: France Telecom
