Use Google’s Cache to retrieve code [Hack Your Day]
As I was happily updating my theme on Hack Your Day I managed to overwrite the index.php file of my website danielpataki.com instead of the one for Hack Your Day. I only noticed now, so I had no undo option and no local copy, since I just made that page 2 days ago and hadn’t [...]
Gmail is hiring [Hack Your Day]
I am not really into showing people job opportunities, but this is too good to miss! Gmail is hiring people for four different positions in seven locations including Europe, so all you European computer wizzes take a look!
Although I’m perfectly happy doing what I do, I would love to work with Google, I’m really sorry [...]
Google Docs offline being rolled out [Hack Your Day]
Google is implementing Google Gears into Google Docs, a feature long awaited by many in the online community. This means that you will be able to use Google Docs without internet access, and when you do manage to go online your stuff will be synchronized automatically.
Offline access will probably mean that you will loose [...]
Google’s April Fools [Hack Your Day]
Google really does come up with the best pranks on April 1st. Most pranks I see around the web and in real life are either quite dull, or are quite evil and over the top. Google manages to balance this somehow and provide us with more charm than we are used to. Last year they [...]
Google code university [Hack Your Day]
I’m probably a little late with this info, but Google has released Google Code University, a page simply built around teaching people code. It already features some AJAX and CSS stuff plus some more and I bet they’ll expand a lot on this.
Knowing Google, in a year this will all be integrated with Google Maps, [...]
Google reaches for the stars [Hack Your Day]
I bet everyone’s familiar with Google Maps by now, it has become a standard application in our daily lives, giving us location information, scenery viewing capability and driving directions. In fact, I use it to look up all the addresses I need, and I even use Google Earth as a sort of photo album.
It is [...]
Customize the logo in Google Apps [Hack Your Day]
If you have a Google Apps account you can change the default Google logos to your own, putting all your stuff in company colors. Whatever I work with I always customize to give it the smooth Hack Your Day feel, so I needed to put my own logo on there, no question about it.
It can [...]
Google Calendar Sync [Hack Your Day]
Google released a neat tool for syncing Google Calandar and the Outlook Calendar. It works both ways, and this is probably the reason I am going back to Outlook again. I love Google Calendar, but Outlook gives you a whole lot more tools.
Just to be a Google fan I have been using Google Calendar, so [...]
Google Docs Sidebar for Firefox [Hack Your Day]
If you use Google Docs a lot, I found an extension for you that not only helps you in organization, but also lets you upload and view any document in the blink of an eye. Apart from being beautifully done, you can work with added productivity, since you don’t have to have the Google Docs [...]
Better Gmail 2 update [Hack Your Day]
A while ago Lifehacker put together a cool batch of tools for your Gmail and named it better Gmail. Then along came Google and made some awesome improvements, ruining these scripts along the way. The Lifehacker team kept up though, and have released yet another version of Gmail 2.
Google Reader integration is now (finally) included [...]
