After browsing the Google site I found several interesting tools there. I did not know that there were book reviews and working in a library, this will definitely be used. I will point out the Google patents to my husband who seems to have patents in the works all the time. There seem to be lots of useful tools for anyone with lots of time on their hands. That seems to be the case with computers in general. There is plenty out there for those who would like to find it.

Interestingly enough, once I set up a Google account, I no longer could send Google alerts to my alternative email address, one I use more than the Gmail account. Prior to setting up the gmail account, I was able to send alerts to any email address. I still recieve those alerts to that alternative email.
