Free In-flight Wi-fi on Virgin America by Google
November 19, 2009
Yesterday, I was invited by Virgin America to the opening flight San Francisco-Fort Lauderdale and I tested the free in-flight wi-fi, courtesy of Google during the Holiday season (ends January 15th, sigh). It worked very well: the login day is very fast unlike when I had to go through the payment process on Gogo Inflight Net website, the user interface was terrible and it often returned error messages. The most impressive technology feature is the capability plugs provided for every seat in economy class, Virgin America is a true 21st century airline! I was able to post articles, the Microsoft Office 2010 post was published from the sky...
Check out the photo gallery, I shot some really nice pictures of the inaugural flight event, Virgin America CEO David Cush cut the ribbon in SFO and Sir Richard Branson himself welcomed us at our arrival in Fort Lauderdale.

Today, Kurt DelBene, Senior Vice President of the Office Business Productivity Group, announced the release of the public betas of Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, Microsoft Visio 2010, Microsoft Project 2010, Microsoft Office Mobile 2010 (for Windows Mobile 6.5), and Office Web Apps. The betas can be downloaded at: www.microsoft.com/2010.
Microsoft Office gets a new logo and the key new features include:
- Outlook Social Connector: nowadays everything has to looks like Twitter and Microsoft could not resist, users can view a person’s social networking feeds and newsletter history inside Outlook, in a small window at the lower right corner of the application. The Social Connector SDK is available today for developers to build third party social networks. LinkedIn will be the first to develop a Social Connector by early next year. Since Microsoft is providing the coding guideline with the SDK, hopefully that moment the LinkedIn add-on will not crash my Outlook!
- An improved user interface, a new customizable ribbon, the ability to perform basic photo editing inside most of the Office applications, a better notes visualization and manipulation in Excel, an improved Business Contact Manager and more…
- Now the Office Web Applications can be edit files (the files could previously only be viewed).
