There's been a LOT of interest generated by the new Workspace mobile app, so I thought I'd remind you how easy Workspace sharing is. Next time I'll suggest the best place to share.

The new Workspace blogging feature allows you to set up a blog as part of your Workspace website OR send blog posts directly to your Blogger or Wordpress (self hosted) blog.
