Hey folks,

The Yale Daily News ran an article today about how there's almost-definite talk about Yale switching to Google Apps for 
Education and using Google servers/software to host our email.

I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts or good literature on the issues with this (re privacy, data, costs, 
security, tech, law, etc.). For the most part, the students are overjoyed about this since our old email system is 
painful to use, so it'd be nice to address usability issues as well.

Thanks a bunch,

-Adi
