11 Jan 07 Google Apps for your domain

Last year when I worked for my previous employer I was looking into mail server replacements. During this period a colleague jokingly said that Google was accepting applications to have your personal (or company) domain’s email and calendar functions through Google, coined “Google Apps for Your Domain” and that we should just switch everyone over to that. At the time I signed up and never heard anything until last week.

Apparently my application was accepted. Today I finally went ahead and activated my account, changed my MX records and added some CNAMEs to my zone file at dnsexit.com.

It basically is gmail, calendar and chat for your domain. Having seen that no one has really reviewed this (at least not on digg), I might write a small review in the future. If I am up to it.

So as of this moment all @disgruntled-dutch.com email is being handled by Google.
