I was looking through the past EdTechTalk web casts and I came across the show EdTech Brainstorm. This show was from September 26th, 2009. It was titled "Google and the Guitar". The featured guest (Adam Contois) was a colleague of the host and he is a Systems Administrator and an avid guitar player. The discussion was centered around the idea of using Google applications in a school environment. They focused on using Gmail in schools, mostly high school and college. The integrated chat feature in Gmail could save teachers and professors a lot of time by making chain emails unnecessary. The other benefits they highlight include Google's use of their own servers instead of the schools, so no network bogging down.
Check out this video if you want to learn more about the benefits of using Gmail as a school email program.
