Did anyone else see the half page ad in the State News today (bottom
half, page 7A)? Google is asking students to take a survey at
http://www.google.com/studentsurvey
In the interest of science, I'm posting the questions asked below.
How satisfied are you with your school's current email system, compared
to other systems you've used (like your personal mail)?
What would you like to change about your school's current email system?
(choose up to three)
I would prefer to use Gmail, Google Talk and Google Calendar instead of
my school's current systems?
What's the primary way that Gmail, Google Talk and Google Calendar could
be better than your school's current systems?
Do you have a Gmail account?
How satisfied are you with Gmail?
Once you've completed the short survey, it says you can click through to
see how the other students voted.
Is this something the university asked Google to do, or is Google trying
to do an end run around the University?
Also, is there any plans to increase quota/space and speed with MSU, or
is this the first step into having Google host MSU email?
What do other NAGers think of the prospect of Google hosting MSU email?
Would MSU consider letting students migrate their accounts over (but
maintain the current system for those who want to stay with MSU run
equipment?)
