Google Apps To Become More Connected

Google says 9 of the top 20 requests from Apps customers are for their accounts to work with more services from Google. Currently, Apps works with Gmail, Docs, Chat, Groups, Video and Calendar. Later this year, Google will roll out functionality with Apps for Picasa, Google Reader, AdWords, News, Finance, and other products. Users won’t need to switch between their personal and work account to interact with these products from within the Apps interface.

What a terrible choice to expand. The only thing I would agree is *Reader*. It was ridiculous not to have it in place before. However, damn, who cares about AdWords, News, Finance and all other crap? What about Analytics instead?

Google releases Reader Play

Did you see the Google Reader Play yet?  As they call it, the fun new way to do something.

Because if you did - I'd need some of your help to understand what is it for.  I'm still struggling.  Besides, it has retried a dozen of times, before it actually displayed something.  Not good.

What's next?  Are they looking into Google TV?  (By the way, the google.tv domain name is owned by Google and redirects to search page.)

P.S. I liked that image that happened to appear in my feed. :)
