10 things I can do in the cloud today, that I couldn’t do a year ago. Keynote by head of the enterprise applications team, Matthew Glotzbach. He’s drunk from the Kool-Aid big time! It was a very Google centric presentation - but cool nonetheless.

• Everything on the go - iPhone
• Search through all my email - Gmail search
• Chat with customers and partners - in any language- very cool live demo of inline translation of chat!
• Collaborate simply with sites and docs
• Organise travel - (the first non Google product today TripIt)
• Easily collect data from co-workers and customers using forms
• Build a scalable business application on the cloud platform
• Use online templates for docs, spreadsheets and presentations
• Run fast, secure and stable web apps (Chrome)
• Securely share video in apps
