In this issue we talk about Google Calendar, New Customers and Mash Ups |

Really Simple Systems now has built in support for Google's new web based Calendar
product, a fully featured calendar that is easily shareable between people both
inside and outside of an organisation.
Nick Hewson, managing director of Hewson Group comments "This is a very interesting example of how Software as a Service is developing. Many smaller companies don't have, or can't afford, the sort of infrastructure that allows the functionality they need. Really Simple Systems have demonstrated with its link to Google's calendar that a low cost alternative is viable"

When we started Really Simple Systems we wanted to offer a CRM system that was the fastest and easiest to use web based CRM and our customers agree:
Mark Mottershead, Managing Director of Information Technology Team Ltd: "We needed to move from an old Goldmine system and wanted something that was simple. Really Simple Systems took the trouble to understand what we wanted to achieve, set the system up and loaded up our old data. The support is excellent!"
Via3Office is a new supplier of ethical office products. John Theaker, Senior Partner & Founder, explained: "We were using Microsoft Outlook and spreadsheets to track customers and prospects but as our business grew we needed something better. Most systems that we looked at were far too complicated, but Really Simple Systems lives up to its name and were really helpful both during and after our evaluation."
Why not take at look at www.reallysimplesystems.com? We offer a fully featured
CRM system that is easy to use, accessible using minimal technology, and all supported by friendly people.
Mash Ups
This is the current and highly fashionable term for any piece of art or product that has been created from a mixture of other works. An example is DJ Danger Mouse’s Grey Album, which features rapper Jay-Z’s lyrics set to the original music from the Beatle’s White Album. All of which is completely illegal, to add to the fun of it. Other people take content from web sites, strip off the ads and represent it. Of course, people have been doing similar crossovers for years, with taxidermy like the Jackalope, movies like Bride and Prejudice which sets Jane Austin’s novel in Bollywood,
and most of rock and roll. Here’s a couple of video examples of the current craft:
They’re Taking the Hobbits to Isengard!
