Google, you are on the list!

I use a pretty big set of Google products but my favorites are G-Mail, Reader, Calendar, Groups, and Docs & Spreadsheets. What I can't understand is why these aren't integrated better!

Lets get right to the rant, or rather list. Yes that is correct, Google you are on the list.

Google

  • When I am logged into Google, I shouldn't have to log in to Google Analytics or any other Google Service. Come on Google, lets get the Single Sign On (SSO) working already!
  • Why is the breadcrumb only in G-Mail?
  • If I have read the New Features page of a product, then make the link go away.
G-Mail
  • If I am already forwarding my email to a different account, I don't need to see a message on how to forward my email.
  • If I already have G-mail on my personalized Google homepage then I don't need to be asked if I would like to do that.
  • In G-Mail, how about making my little bread crumb what I actually use most often and not what you think I use. I rarely goto photos but I goto Reader, Blogger and Google Analytics a lot.
Docs & Spreadsheets
  • Why can't we upload PDF's?
  • Where is my G-Mail bread crumb?
  • Where is the chat between the collaborators?
Google Groups
  • Why is there a cap on what you can upload?
  • Why isn't there a Google Page Site for the Group?
  • Why can't we use the Docs & Spreadsheets for our group easier?
  • Why isn't G-Mail the message editor? I'd like to spell check and use a rich editor.
  • Where is my G-Mail bread crumb?
  • Where is the group calendar?
I feel as if Google has a lot of super smart chickens running around with their heads cut off. If they had complete integration between all of their services... ah, now that would be Nirvana.
