Google is extending its offerings to users with Google IMAP, updates to Google Finance, related tabs on iGoogle and a gadget API for market data.
“When I joined Google a little over a year ago, I’d been working in the same field for several years and I wanted to do “something different.” It seems I got my wish: together with an excellent team, I helped develop IMAP for Gmail. And today, we’re starting to roll it out on every device, for free,” said Germano Caronni, a Software Engineer at Google.
The IMAP technology assists to keep your email in sync says Google, and is supported by an array of devices.
“Plenty of devices you use every day can take advantage of IMAP, a technology that lets you keep all your email in sync automatically as you read and sort it. Your smart phone most likely supports it, as does your PDA, laptop, desktop computer,” says Caronni
Google further announced that they are releasing Google Finance tabs on iGoogle.
“This new tab is a dashboard of financial gadgets which enable you to add, customize and share your Google Finance experience. But here’s what’s extra cool about these gadgets — they now have communication skills and can “talk” to each other. When you make an update in one gadget, it automatically syncs with the other gadgets in the tab,” said Google Finance Engineer Matt Gundersen.
Gundersen further said that gadget developers are in for a treat with the company’s release of a gadget API for market data.
“If you’re a gadget developer, we’ve made it a lot easier to make a gadget with market data. We’re releasing a gadget API for market data which provides a framework for developers to display stock market information from the American, Nasdaq and New York stock exchanges within a gadget on Google properties.”
