Education mailbox sizes are growing
Google is increasing Gmail storage for our Google Apps for Education users from 7 GB to 25 GB.
Starting next week, new schools that migrate to Google Apps for Education will receive 25 GB mailboxes. Existing accounts will see their storage size increase over the next few weeks.
Automatic mobile rendering for Google Sites
As the dramatic growth of the mobile web changes the way people consume content, it’s becoming increasingly important for publishers to provide a good mobile experience. With this in mind, Google just added automatic mobile rendering in Google Sites for iOS 3.0+ and Android 2.2+ devices, and a mobile version of the Google Sites lists.
By going to General settings under More actions > Manage site and clicking on Automatically adjust site for mobile phones, your Google site will be automatically adjusted whenever it’s viewed from an iOS or Android 2.2+ device:
The most noticeable automatic adjustments include:
- Aligning the header layout and top bar
- Fitting the width of the site to match the device’s width
- Smart handling of sidebars, horizontal navigation, and dropdown links
After you’ve enabled this feature, you can preview the page from your computer as a mobile viewer using More actions > Preview as viewer then select Mobile from the yellow Preview page as viewer (Mobile | Desktop) box at the top of the page.
You can also choose to hide some of the links in your site’s footer to save vertical space.
It’s also important for you to be able to access and search your own sites on the go, which is why we’ve also added mobile versions of the site list, sites search, and browse sites categories.
Just navigate to http://sites.google.com from any iOS 3.0+ or Android 2.2+ device for quick access to your sites.
