New Google Maps – Google had a big developers conference this week and one of their big announcements was their new Maps.  We have been working hard on our Google maps integrations so we are excited by what’s coming.

Scientific workout – We all want to be fitter, we’ve all tried any number of programs.  Let’s listen to science and do a 7 minute workout.  Maybe someone will blow that out of the water with a 6 minute workout.

Saasu at CeBIT – One of our Accounting partners Saasu.com, are doing some presentations at CeBIT Sydney at the end of May.  Talking about cloud software and API’s, something very close to our heart.

Our video this week astounded us because 1) Trucks are continually running into tunnels and 2) what a fantastic solution!  Enjoy.

We don’t know the source of this week’s quote, however a good one  -

“All you need to be happy is something to do, something to love and something to hope for.”

Have a great weekend.

We’re big fans of Dropbox here, and we were  excited to released Version 2.0 of Connect2Field because we got to show off our new Dropbox integration.

You’ve long been able to add documents to your jobs, both in the admin and on the mobile app.  These documents have been static files that were on your computer or in the case of the mobile app a photo on your phone.  Now if you use Dropbox, you can attach any Dropbox file to a job.

By linking your Dropbox account with Connect2Field, you can easily link a document with a job.  When you do this, your fieldworker will have access to the latest synced version of that Dropbox file while he is at any job.  So if you make a change to a spreadsheet that you’ve linked then your fieldworker will have access to those changes seamlessly.

Our integration works from the mobile app as well.  So you can upload any Dropbox file directly from the mobile app and your admin will have access to it.

You can learn more about our Dropbox integration by watching the 2 minute video below.

Using Dropbox and Connect2Field from Connect2Field on Vimeo.

Dropbox is a well known leader in cloud syncing technology, and we think our customers are going to have a number of potential uses for this in Connect2Field.  We can’t wait to see how our customers take advantage of this integration.

If you want to know more about Dropbox or need help getting set up, don’t hesitate to give us a call or get in contact through our support site.

Printed Gun – This is awesome and scary at the same time.  What a world we are living in.

Background on Xero – Interesting background story on one of our Accounting partners Xero.

Stats on Social Media – If you are using Social Media in your business you might want to have a look at this article covering some of the demographics around social media use.

A cool video we saw this week, using 10,000 iPhones as domino’s.  Pretty clever how they go up the elevator.

This week’s quote is from Gandhi -

“Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in harmony.”

Have a great weekend.
