Turn services on/off for certain users

Watch a video

Which Google Apps services are available to user is determined by which organizational unit the user belongs to. As the administrator, you assign users to organizational units, and you specify which Google Apps services are available to users in each organizational unit. (To control service access for a single user, create an organizational unit containing just that user.)

By default, an organizational unit inherits the services settings of its parent in the organizational tree. However, you can override the inherited setting. The new setting applies to users in that organizational unit, and any children of that organizational unit inherit the new setting.

You can turn a core Google Apps service on or off for an organizational unit only when the service is enabled at the account level. Disabled core services do not appear in the list on this page. Non-core services, such as Google Blogger, Reader, Google Voice, Picasa Web Albums, AdWords, and iGoogle, are active or inactive based solely on the settings for the organizational unit.

To select which services are available to users:

Log in to the Google Apps administrator control panel.

The URL is https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/primary-domain-name, where primary-domain-name is the domain name you used to sign up for Google Apps.

Click the Organization & users tab.

In the organizational tree on the left, select the organizational unit for which you want to set the available services.

Click the Services tab.

For each Google Apps service, the Services tab shows whether the service is currently ON or OFF for users in the selected organizational unit. It also shows whether the current setting was Inherited from a parent organizational unit or has been Overridden for this organizational unit. (The root organizational unit does not have inherited settings.)

To override an inherited services setting, click the Override this setting link to the right of the ON / OFF control, then click ON or OFF to change the setting.

If the setting is already Overridden, just click ON or OFF to change the setting.

To return a setting to inheriting from the parent organization unit, click Use inherited.

Click Save changes.

Notes:

Changing the availability of the service for an organizational unit also affects any organizational units that are its children in the organizational tree. The children organizational units inherit the new setting unless they override it.

It may take up to 24 hours for a service on/off change to take effect.

Dropbox vs. the Alternatives: Which Online Syncing Service Is Right for You?

2011-12-08T22:40:00.001-08:00

There are advantages and disadvantages of all of these services. Here are some of the unique features each offers:

Amplify’d from lifehacker.com

What These Services All Do

These five services offer free online space for storing/backing up your files, sharing them with others, and keeping them in sync across multiple computers and/or mobile devices. They all work with Macs and PCs, and in some cases Linux and many mobile platforms as well.

If you're in a hurry, here's a quick comparison chart of the five services by platform, storage space, and pricing for additional space.

If you're a Linux user, your choices from the above five services are limited to Dropbox, SpiderOak, and Wuala. If your phone runs Window Mobile or Symbian, SugarSync will likely be your service of choice.

There are advantages and disadvantages of all of these services. Here are some of the unique features each offers:

Full size

Dropbox: Besides its ease of use and great performance, especially when syncing over a local network, Dropbox has the best third-party integration so you get access to a ton of tools like SideCLOUDload, Dropbox Screen Grabber, Dropbox Linker, and a whole lot more. Syncing email clients (Outlook or Thunderbird) across multiple computers works with Dropbox but not other syncing solutions because of its unique syncing technology. Plus, there are a great many ways to gain more storage space in Dropbox.

Full size

Live Mesh: Microsoft's file syncing tool works really well in the background (so well, you probably won't even notice it). You can use Live Mesh just for local syncing and/or 5GB of SkyDrive's online storage space (out of SkyDrive's 25GB max). As you might expect, Live Mesh has some unique benefits for Windows users: you can remote control your Live Sync connected Windows computer (similar to Remote Desktop Connection) and sync Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer program settings. SkyDrive is also where Office Web Apps online documents are stored, so you get that integration as well.

Full size

SpiderOak: Besides its really strong "zero knowledge" security features (see below), SpiderOak is very versatile: it can sync not only your desktop or mobile device but your external drive or network volume as well—so you can use it to keep your desktop, laptop, and USB thumb drive in sync, for example. SpiderOak offers a lot of information about your backups, uploads, and syncs, so you always feel in control of your data. Refer a friend and you get an additional 1GB more free space (up to 50GB max for the free referral space).

Full size

SugarSync: SugarSync does what Dropbox does, but lacks the LAN sync and strong API support. It makes up for that in more features for media streaming, mobile syncing (including auto syncing photos and folders from Android devices), and folders selection and permissions/passwords settings. SugarSync's web interface has a bit more functionality than Dropbox, with its separation of photos from files and also a very useful direct editing feature where you can edit files from within the webapp. You get a generous 5GB free to start with and can earn 500MB more space for each referral.

Full size

Wuala: From Swiss storage manufacturer LaCie, Wuala, like SpiderOak, offers locally encrypted data backup and syncing. Although the 1GB of free storage space is on the low end to start with, Wuala has a unique way to earn additional storage: you can buy more space or exchange unused storage on your computer (e.g., empty space on an external drive) for more storage on Wuala.

Ease of Use

Drag n' Drop to one folder. When it comes to simplicity, Dropbox wins hands down. You have a Dropbox folder, drag files into it, and magically the files appear in identically named folders on your other computers. Sharing files for collaboration on Dropbox is also just as easy: from the website, go to the sharing tab, select the folder/files and enter the email addresses of people you want to share the files or folders with.

Like Dropbox, but with multiple folders support. SugarSync has similar functionality, with its Magic Briefcase folder, but because you can sync multiple folders on more than one computer, managing your synced folders and shares can get more confusing.

Easy visual clues. Both Dropbox and SugarSync have handy tray icons and integrate well with Mac and Windows. There's a visual clue over folders to show whether they've been uploaded or not, and you'll be notified if you get near or go over your file storage limit.

Traditional file management interfaces. SpiderOak and Wuala have folder management user interfaces that aren't really difficult to understand or navigate, but they do require just a bit more thought and planning than simply dumping everything in a catchall folder. Live Mesh asks you to select each folder you wish to sync individually. By allowing you to select which folders to backup/sync, however, you get more control (a good tradeoff between simplicity and power. We've previously posted a workaround using a symlink and a small Windows app for syncing files and folders outside of the dropbox folder, if you prefer more control over Dropbox's simple "one folder" access).

Full size

Backup separate from syncing. Of the five services, SpiderOak's interface/system may be the most awkward and confusing to set up. With the other services, you select the folders you want to backup/sync and the app starts to make that happen. With SpiderOak, you first have to choose your folders/files to back up and wait for those files to be uploaded. Then, in another screen, you have to choose the folders you wish to sync between devices. This might be good in corner cases where you want to backup files to the cloud but not sync them to another computer, and it also eliminates some overhead by separating the backup and sync function. From a user standpoint, however, it may feel like an unnecessary step. Wuala also separates the backup and syncing function (though you don't have to first backup in order to sync), so clearly these two services are designed for people who may want more options than just syncing.

All of the services make sharing files with others very easy. Just right-click or select the files/folders and enter the email addresses of your recipients.

With Wuala and SpiderOak, you create groups or "share rooms" (SpiderOak's comes with its own RSS feed) to distribute to more people at a time, so it feels more of a collaborative environment.

In addition to this folder sharing for collaboration or to give others access to your files, all of the services also let you create public links to your files so you can post a link on Facebook to a document, for example. SugarSync has direct posting to Facebook Photos.

As we've mentioned before, you can use multiple online cloud storage services to make the most of the available free space. For your work documents, for example, you might select SpiderOak or Wuala; for streaming music on your mobile phone, SugarSync; to backup files from one computer to another over your local network, Live Mesh; and for everyday files, Dropbox.

If that's too much overhead, however, the decision for which online syncing service is right for you will depend on your priorities: simplicity and third-party support (Dropbox), security (SpiderOak/Wuala), Windows advantages(Live Mesh), or most features and platforms support (SugarSync).

List of Chromium Command Line Switches

There are lots of command lines which can be used with the Chromium browser. Some change behavior of features, others are for debugging or experimenting. This page lists the available switches including their conditions and descriptions. Last automated update occurred on 2011-11-19.

Condition Explanation

--allow-cross-origin-auth-prompt ⊗ Allow third party content included on a page to prompt for a HTTP basic auth username/password pair. ↪

--allow-file-access ⊗ On ChromeOS, file:// access is disabled except for certain whitelisted directories. This switch re-enables file:// for testing. ↪

--allow-http-background-page ⊗ Allow non-https URL for background_page for hosted apps. ↪

--allow-outdated-plugins ⊗ Don't block outdated plugins. ↪

--allow-running-insecure-content ⊗ By default, an https page cannot run JavaScript, CSS or plug-ins from http URLs. This provides an override to get the old insecure behavior. ↪

--allow-sandbox-debugging ⊗ Allows debugging of sandboxed processes (see zygote_main_linux.cc). ↪

--allow-scripting-gallery ⊗ Allows injecting extensions and user scripts on the extensions gallery site. Normally prevented for security reasons, but can be useful for automation testing of the gallery. ↪

--sync-try-ssltcp-first-for-xmpp ⊗ Try to connect to XMPP using SSLTCP first (for testing). ↪

--sync-url ⊗ Override the default server used for profile sync. ↪

--syncer-thread-timed-stop ⊗ Use the SyncerThread implementation that matches up with the old pthread impl semantics, but using Chrome synchronization primitives. The only difference between this and the default is that we now have no timeout on Stop(). Should only use if you experience problems with the default. ↪

--test-child-process ⊗ When running certain tests that spawn child processes, this switch indicates to the test framework that the current process is a child process. ↪

--test-load-libcros^[3] ⊗ Attempts to load libcros and validate it, then exits. A nonzero return code means the library could not be loaded correctly. ↪

--test-nacl-sandbox ⊗ Runs the security test for the NaCl loader sandbox. ↪

--trace-startup ⊗ Causes TRACE_EVENT flags to be recorded from startup. Optionally, can specify the specific trace categories to include (e.g. --trace-startup=base,net) otherwise, all events are recorded. Setting this flag results in the first call to BeginTracing() to receive all trace events since startup. In Chrome, you may find --trace-startup-file and --trace-startup-duration to control the auto-saving of the trace (not supported in the base-only TraceLog component). ↪

--trace-startup-duration ⊗ Sets the time in seconds until startup tracing ends. If omitted a default of 5 seconds is used. Has no effect without --trace-startup, or if --startup-trace-file=none was supplied. ↪

--trace-startup-file ⊗ If supplied, sets the file which startup tracing will be stored into, if omitted the default will be used "chrometrace.log" in the current directory. Has no effect unless --trace-startup is also supplied. Example: --trace-startup --trace-startup-file=/tmp/trace_event.log As a special case, can be set to 'none' - this disables automatically saving the result to a file and the first manually recorded trace will then receive all events since startup. ↪

--try-chrome-again ⊗ Experimental. Shows a dialog asking the user to try chrome. This flag is to be used only by the upgrade process. ↪

--type ⊗ The value of this switch determines whether the process is started as a renderer or plugin host. If it's empty, it's the browser. ↪

--uninstall ⊗ Runs un-installation steps that were done by chrome first-run. ↪

--uninstall-extension ⊗ Uninstall an extension with the specified extension id. ↪

--use-gl ⊗ Select which implementation of GL the GPU process should use. Options are: desktop: whatever desktop OpenGL the user has installed (Linux and Mac default). egl: whatever EGL / GLES2 the user has installed (Windows default - actually ANGLE). osmesa: The OSMesa software renderer. ↪

--use-mock-keychain^[8] ⊗ Use mock keychain for testing purposes, which prevents blocking dialogs from causing timeouts. ↪

--use-more-webui ⊗ Use WebUI versions of dialogs when available (rather than platform native implementations). ↪

--use-pulseaudio ⊗ Use PulseAudio instead of ALSA on Linux. ↪

--use-pure-views ⊗ Use a pure Views implementation when available (rather rather than platform native implementation such as GTK). ↪

--use-spdy ⊗ Use Spdy for the transport protocol instead of HTTP. This is a temporary testing flag. ↪

--use-system-ssl^[14] ⊗ Use the system SSL library (Secure Transport on Mac, SChannel on Windows) instead of NSS for SSL. ↪

--user-agent ⊗ A string used to override the default user agent with a custom one. ↪

--user-data-dir ⊗ Specifies the user data directory, which is where the browser will look for all of its state. ↪

--utility ⊗ Causes the process to run as a utility subprocess. ↪

--utility-allowed-dir ⊗ The utility process is sandboxed, with access to one directory. This flag specifies the directory that can be accessed. ↪

--utility-cmd-prefix ⊗ On POSIX only: the contents of this flag are prepended to the utility process command line. Useful values might be "valgrind" or "xterm -e gdb --args". ↪

--v ⊗ Gives the default maximal active V-logging level; 0 is the default. Normally positive values are used for V-logging levels. ↪

--version ⊗ Print version information and quit. ↪

--video-threads ⊗ Set number of threads to use for video decoding. ↪

--vmodule ⊗ Gives the per-module maximal V-logging levels to override the value given by --v. E.g. "my_module=2,foo*=3" would change the logging level for all code in source files "my_module.*" and "foo*.*" ("-inl" suffixes are also disregarded for this matching). Any pattern containing a forward or backward slash will be tested against the whole pathname and not just the module. E.g., "*/foo/bar/*=2" would change the logging level for all code in source files under a "foo/bar" directory. ↪

--wait-for-debugger ⊗ Will wait for 60 seconds for a debugger to come to attach to the process. ↪

--wait-for-debugger-children ⊗ Will add kWaitForDebugger to every child processes. If a value is passed, it will be used as a filter to determine if the child process should have the kWaitForDebugger flag passed on or not. ↪

--web-worker-process-per-core ⊗ Causes the worker process allocation to use as many processes as cores. ↪

--web-worker-share-processes ⊗ Causes workers to run together in one process, depending on their domains. Note this is duplicated in webworkerclient_impl.cc ↪

--webcore-log-channels ⊗ Choose which logging channels in WebCore to activate. See Logging.cpp in WebKit's WebCore for a list of available channels. ↪

--websocket-live-experiment-host^[2] ⊗ Debug only switch to specify which websocket live experiment host to be used. If host is specified, it also makes initial delay shorter (5 min to 5 sec) to make it faster to test websocket live experiment code. ↪

--webui-lock-screen^[3] ⊗ Enable WebUI based lock screen. ↪

--webui-login^[3] ⊗ Enable WebUI based login screens. ↪

--winhttp-proxy-resolver ⊗ Use WinHTTP to fetch and evaluate PAC scripts. Otherwise the default is to use Chromium's network stack to fetch, and V8 to evaluate. ↪

--worker ⊗ Causes the process to run as a worker subprocess. ↪

--zygote ⊗ Causes the process to run as a renderer zygote. ↪

Making ideas real with SketchUp

11/02/2011 09:01:00 AM
For the past decade, legions of Google SketchUp users have been quietly shaping the world around us. Two million professionals and hobbyists use this 3D modeling tool every week to design everything under the sun, including houses, room layouts, movie sets, aquariums, bridges, robots and furniture. They even rebuild cities. Chances are, even if you haven’t tried SketchUp yourself, you’ve witnessed, touched or walked inside something created by a SketchUp user.

We think it’s time these behind-the-scenes heroes get a well-deserved round of applause, so we’re starting the Make Ideas Real project. Make Ideas Real is about showcasing the intrepid inventors, designers and dreamers using SketchUp to bring their ideas to life.

Newbies: How to Start Your First Website

2011-10-05T17:56:00.001-07:00

This tutorial is specifically designed as step-by-step overview of how to build your 1st website.

Amplify’d from www.stevescottsite.com

You’ll need to purchase web hosting for your website. This means there is a monetary investment. Now you might be wondering:

My advice? Pay a little money to get a quality web hosting service.

The only requirement is to pick a hosting service that offers the cPanel feature. cPanel is a browser based control panel that provides automation tools. These are designed to simplify the process of hosting a web site. cPanel does many things like: Tracking, setting up a blog, and manage email.

Without going into a long-winded explanation of its features and benefits, I recommend one site for your hosting needs:

Why?

It’s affordable, has CPanel, and includes the tools you need for a small website.

All of my money sites use Host Gator. In my 6 years of doing business with this company, I’ve never had a problem. Also, they’ve always helped out whenever I had a technical question.

They have an excellent support section that’s filled with video tutorials. These are great for figuring out those weird things that happen when you run an online business.

Newbies: How to Start Your First Website

Starting your first website might seem a bit intimidating. Sometimes it can be downright scary. Many people wonder if they have the technical expertise to do it.

The good news is not that hard to get a website up and running. In fact, it can be done in less than 10 minutes. Even better – Do it a few times and the process will be come brain-dead simple!

This tutorial is specifically designed as step-by-step overview of how to build your 1st website.

You’ll notice this tutorial specifically talks about installing a Word Press blog. Don’t let the word blog scare you. Installing Word Press doesn’t mean you have to become a blogger.

Simply put, Word Press is the perfect platform for creating any website. What’s great is this platform they make it easy to tweak and customize your website. This is a vast improvement over the static HTML websites that once populated the Internet.

(In the past, I’ve had to change hundreds of pages on my static websites. Trust me, this is NOT a fun experience.)

My point is Word Press is a great tool for ANY website you hope to create. Not just a blog. So follow along the rest of this tutorial to learn how to get one up and running…

The first thing you need to do is register a domain name. Basically this is the online address people will use to locate your first website. Like my blog: SteveScottSite.com.

Now…a lot has been written on the subject of picking domain names. My suggestion is to pick what’s called a “brandable domain name.” This is an address that’s short and to the point.

I suggest Name.com simply because it’s the same service I’ve used six years. On this site, you can literally register a domain and have it live in a few minutes. It’s easy to understand and I know what I’m getting with Name.com.

Now, there are hundreds of places to register a domain name. Some even spend millions on Super Bowl advertisements. The really isn’t any difference between the domain sites. Most of it comes down to personal preference.

Get started on Name.com by typing in your potential web address

If it’s available, you can immediately register it
