For a while now, reading your calendars and see which event was related to which calendar has been a little frustrating within Glasscubes as you've had no control over the colour of the calendar.

As many of you may be aware, we finally launched the new look Glasscubes over the weekend.

This weekend, we are going to be launching a new look Glasscubes designed to make using Glasscubes more intuitive, enjoyable and quicker.

This time last year I would have had to trundle into London, scarf donned, gloves firmly in place and moaning well and truly underway. In fact, in February I did have to and my oh my was it horrific.

Notice: As of April 2016 Glasscubes no longer supports editing Powerpoint/Open Office Document within the web browser unless you subscribe to Office 365.  

Normally my blog posts are about industry, working smarter and online marketing. I'm getting pretty good feedback too, but today I wanted to be a little more self indulgent because we finally cracked a couple of major development features in Glasscubes that I really want to raise the roof about because I'm so happy we have them... and the big one today is that you can now edit Microsoft Word and Excel documents online in Glasscubes (including 2007).

We don't believe in subdirectories. We feel that they actively encourage multiple versions of documents to exist in different locations and force a user to decide where it should go, which may be a different location to where someone else might choose to look or put it.

We've been working really hard behind the scenes to bring our users the features they asked for and we've recently made some changes to tasks and how they are managed to enable to you to collaborate with your colleague better. You can now categorise and comment on tasks in Glasscubes...

I work from home a lot. I encourage working from home a lot too. I actively encourage employers and employees to work from home when they can because of the benefits from increased productivity, cost savings and potentially reducing their carbon footprint.

I've blogged a few times on how allowing your employees to work from home can help your business overcome potential problems such as swine flu and other business continuity threats, however there is also another prominant threat to everybody. Global warming.
