This week on the Google Educast: The new Research Tool in Google Documents gave us a lot to talk about and try out. It’s NEW and available in both Gmail and Google Apps for Education accounts (if enabled by your admin). Also, the Doodle 4 Google winner was announced, and the Google A Day Game is live! We’re all curious about the new Google Search “Knowledge Graph” feature. No one has seen it in action much yet. Have YOU? Chris showed us Mini Calendar, and Sean and Fred tipped us off to Gmail icons for attachments (if you still get those), Little Alchemy the Chrome app (we played for way too long), and custom Chrome themes to delight and amuse your colleagues. Finally, Chris showed us how you can use Gmail’s “Canned Responses” feature to create a type of WebQuest. And more!

Show Hosts:  Fred Delventhal, Sean Williams, Diane Main, and Chris Betcher!
