gmail-soapIf you haven’t had a chance yet to take Gmail offline. You need to. I migrated to completely Google from native apps on my PowerBook about four months ago: Gmail, Calendar, Reader, Docs, and Google Apps for Ridgepoint’s stuff. SIDE NOTE: Churches, you need to make the move to Google Apps for all your email, communication, and intranet needs! Free for Non-Profits and Google will beat whatever system you probably using.

The one downside to Gmail was that it was online and only online. I don’t have internet at home and it’s a pain to plugin my AT&T internet card for something simple like looking up an email. Now I have the FULL power of Gmail online and offline. Check it out:

Churches, want to hear about my experience with Google Apps and the setup process? Let me know. I would love to help. Contact me.
