Google Apps team Edition is out ..

Google has come out with another of its 'bundled' suites. This time they have bound Google Docs, Google Calendar, Google talk and a Start Search page for the members of teams - and they have called it Google Apps Team Edition. All the users have to do is to sign up with a domain (like abcd.gef@creekwood.com where creekwood.com becomes your domain) and you will get a mail sent to this address. After clicking the confirmation link you are all set and ready to access these apps. You could invite other members of the same domain and then the collaborative effort kicks off with messaging, document sharing and Calendar scheduling. We even saw the collaborative effort in the case of Google Docs when they introduced the Forms in Spreadsheets. The Google Docs have been revamped and the UI looks great !

Anyway this seems to be a great way of collaboration but still it is under Google. Major organizations may consider this as threat full ( I feel so). Small companies with a distributed workforce may consider this as a blessing in disguise. Anyway Google Rocks yet again. Heres the Video.
