How many changes can you spot in this screenshot of an internal version of Gmail from the Chromium OS bug tracker?

Here’s what I noticed: there are three links for “mail”, “contacts” and “tasks” below Gmail’s logo, there’s a new button for composing messages, a “call phone” option in Gmail Chat, a drop-down for switching between Google accounts and the options that let you select unread or starred messages use less space.

Google Operating System

In late 2009, the Enterprise team here at Google launched a new tool, Google Commerce Search, to help online retailers improve site usability and raise conversions. We’re excited to see results and metrics coming in that show the impact this new product is having. One company, DiscountOfficeItems.com, decided to switch to Google Commerce Search from a sluggish homegrown solution and almost immediately saw sizable lifts in revenue, traffic, transactions, and average order size.

Tim Horton, CEO, will join Nitin Mangtani, Senior Product Manager at Google Enterprise on a live webcast Thursday, March 4 at 10:00 a.m. PST / 1:00 p.m. EST to share his experience and answer questions about their decision to switch to Google Commerce Search.

You can read more from Tim Horton on the Google Enterprise blog. Event details:
