How to: Add an RSS Feed to your iGoogle Home Page

I have been using Google Apps now for close on 3 years and have been accessing it via a web browser the whole time.  My home page has always been Google but I recently changed it to iGoogle so that I can configure some handy Gadgets for easy access to my most used items.

In my management of keeping stuff out of the Inbox I set up some RSS Feeds instead of subscribing to some newsletters.  The great thing is you can add RSS Feeds right onto your iGoogle page.

Heres how:

1. Open iGoogle
2. Press the Add Gadgets button
3. On the top right look for the 'Search for gadgets' box and type RSS and press 'Search' button
4. The first entry should be Google Reader.  Press 'Add it now' button.
5. Now configure the RSS feed in Google Reader by adding the relevant link.

How to: Add an Image to Google Apps Signature

I was recently asked, "How do you add an image to your Google Apps Signature?"  Rather than try and write how to do it I have recorded a short video.  I hope it helps!

A great way to keep your event organised

Are you looking for a great way to keep your event organised?

It all starts with the right 'Invitation' and ends when you send the 'Thank You for Attending' notes.

But how can you keep track of who is or isn't coming? Who is bringing someone with them and who maybe able to make it if nothing more spectacular comes up?

Gone are the days when your only option was to get a printer to send out your invites or for you to go to the shop and buy a pad of 25 daggy looking invites and then have to wait by the phone for the RSVP. Whether your event is an intimate dinner or a large scale conference, why not harness the power of the internet to keep it all organised.

Ok so I send out an email to everyone...Wrong you can create great looking invites that suit your style by choosing from exclusive galleries or upload your favorite image (even a pdf will work), you’ll find a design so uniquely yours, your guests will think it’s custom made (oh wait, it is).

Remember all those times you sent an invite or ecard and thought, “but I had so much more to say”? Well, now you can say exactly what you want. You can even post pictures, videos, add a google map and collect money or add gift/charity registries. If you want to go Ad Free (by removing the Pingg.com logo) you can for a small fee.

And to top it all off you don't have to be the organisation genie Pingg.com make it easy to manage your guests, sort your guest lists, send reminders, thank-you notes and more. And all from one place.
