Print your documents from the road using by your mobile

Imagine printing an important document from your smartphone on the way to work and finding the printout waiting for you when you walk in the door.

Google has announced that its Cloud Print beta service will be coming to Android and iOS devices within the “next few days”, allowing users to print documents straight from their smartphone.

According to the Google Mobile Blog, the function is not just limited to Android and iPhone users however, as any mobile device that supports HTML5 can take advantage of the feature. As you may expect, the service will allow users to send documents to a printer connected to Google Cloud Print – although will be initially limited to Windows PCs. At launch, the option will only be available on Gmail and Google Docs, but is likely to spread to further sites in the future.

Tyler Odean of Google Cloud Print Team said: “Just open a document in Google Docs or an email in Gmail in your mobile browser and choose Print from the dropdown menu in the top right corner. You can also print certain kinds of email attachments (such as .pdf or .doc) by clicking the Print link that appears next to them.”

 

         

Google Cloud Print is compatible with devices running Android 2.1+ and iOS 3.0+. It will begin rolling out to US customers today and tomorrow, with a UK release to follow.

Bookmark exporter and importer for all web browsers

While installing a new browser, you have an option to import bookmarks and favorites from other browsers but that’s limited to only during installation. Not all browsers help in importing bookmarks from other browsers, so Transmute helps in the best way, as its a multi-browser bookmark converter.

Transmute is a bookmark converter that enables you to import and export your bookmarks and favorites between Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and Chromium. You can export bookmarks to the root or a designated subfolder and also create a backup file.

This is a free software, but restricted to Windows so Safari users would find no luck with it for Mac OS. The browsers which are included are Internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox with the new and older versions, Opera, Google chrome user and developer version.

You can also export the folder and set a time for that, and also overwrite existing saved bookmark folders. Creation of backup file for the bookmarks is also possible with it.
Usage of this software is very easy, with setting up of the source, and target browsers. And you can check the extra options and export the bookmarks/favorites to your computer or directly to the target browser.
