Some cool Gmail features today:
1) Vacation Auto Responder
2) Create Mailing Groups
3) Check your gmail via mobile phone
BTW: Checking gmail via mobile phone is cool, but ideally I'd love to be notified on my cell when I receive an email. Ideally, via SMS, but I don't think that's available.
Do you know if current mobile phones have built-in RSS feed readers ? Cause Google offers an RSS feed of your Gmail account, and so if your phone has RSS reader you could get notified upon receival of an email. Long live RSS :)
Damn.. I seriously love RSS feeds. :eyes: |

What is Google Scholar?
Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, abstracts and articles, from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and other scholarly organizations. Google Scholar helps you identify the most relevant research across the world of scholarly research. |

Q4 Financial Summary
Google reported revenues of $1.919 billion for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, an increase of 86% compared to the fourth quarter of 2004 and an increase of 22% compared to the third quarter of 2005. Google reports its revenues, consistent with GAAP, on a gross basis without deducting traffic acquisition costs, or TAC. In the fourth quarter, TAC totaled $629 million, or 33% percent of advertising revenues.
Fiscal Year 2005 Financial Highlights
Revenue -- For the year ended December 31, 2005, Google reported total revenues of $6.139 billion, an increase of 92.5% over revenues of $3.189 billion in 2004. Revenue growth was attributable to both Google sites and Google network sites.
Google Sites Revenues -- Revenue from Google sites increased 112.5% in 2005 to $3.377 billion as traffic to Google sites continued to grow and monetization improved.
Google Network Revenues -- Revenue from the Google network increased 72.9% in 2005 to $2.688 billion due primarily to increased contribution from existing partners as well as the addition of many new partners to the AdSense for Search and AdSense for Content programs.
International Revenues -- Revenues from outside of the United States contributed 39% to total revenues for the year compared to 34% in 2004. |

Although GOOG is down (After Hours (RT-ECN): 381.10 51.5601 (11.92%)) - 2005 results are amazingly good.
One has to keep in mind that GOOG is now the biggest VC in the valley. Once some of these investments start to reach the market and drive revenues earnings are going to go through the roof.
IMO - GOOG will re-test the $350-$360 floor range, which sould signal a good time to enter. A $360 entry should easily produce a 20% return within 6 months. |
