More proof of Google’s eventual world domination: Google now has its own URL shortener. Released with the newest version of Google Toolbar, “http://goo.gl” type addresses are now available. Read more about it at Google’s blog. Although a free service (through Google Toolbar or Feedburner), this isn’t the freebie I wanted to mention.
Still spirited by the holidays, Google is wrapping presents for you to freely gift away. Just visit Google’s Chrome for Christmas site to personalize the budding browser with your choice of gift wrap and your own greeting. Send each individual a different personalization or save time by sending a generic one to everyone.
Granted, Google Chrome is already free… But the added wrapping paper and greeting specially catered to the recipient – that surely rings in the holiday spirit, doesn’t it? What better way to economically gift away? No postage. Free. Brand name product. Personalized. Useful and practical.
