What's new @ Google? Tips and tools for agencies
This Week in Product Updates, September 13, 2010
Monday, September 13, 2010
Every week we’ll be providing a brief update on the latest Google product and feature updates relevant to our agency partners. To see past updates, look for the “
This Week in Product Updates
” label.
With the school year now in full swing, nothing makes the transition easier and more fun than back-to-school supplies. This week’s update does just that - provides some great resources and updates to add to your digital pencil case, such as Google Instant, a new version of AdWords Editor, global research, and statistics in Blogger.
And if a teacher (or client) happens to stump you, just submit the question to Elmo - he’s always happy to help!
