Chromebook laptop rental program
It will be great if we can have a Chromebook laptop renting out program, similar to Palo Alto library renting out Google Chromebook laptop.
http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/08/palo-alto-library-pioneers-chromebooks.html
These Google Chromebook laptops are much cheaper than Windows laptops, and more secure.
Thanking you.

Starbucks: can help reduce plastic usage etc
Please forward to corporate headquarters:
Starbucks can help reduce plastic usage etc. When I visit starbucks and order chai latte, the chai comes with a plastic top (on top of the paper cup), which I throw away all the time. Starbucks can provide plastic top as optional, which itself will help save the planet.

Wrote to Hilton, Marriott and other hotel chains to come up with Google TV or Apple TV in hotel rooms, instead of cable
Please forward to corporate headquarters:
In hotel room, it is much better to have Google TV or Apple TV (which have youtube, netflix apps), instead of cable TV which has boring channels, and very limited choices. For example, I prefer watching Indian movies from youtube or netflix, etc on TV.
Thanking you.

Wrote to smartphone and tablet companies to come up with tablet/phone with multiple logins
Please forward to corporate headquarters:
Need a family phone/tablet with multiple profiles : If handset maker can introduce a family phone/tablet, ie one which supports multiple profiles (similar to chrome browser, maybe even a Chrome OS based phone), that anyone can login into using their own gmail accounts, and have their own set of personalized apps, contacts, photos etc, it will be much cheaper for the family, and they will not have to buy individual phones, or keep logging into and out of various apps on Android/iphone which leads to a confusing experience if there are multiple people using the same android/iphone phone/tablet.

Wrote: mobilesupport@concur.com , https://www.concur.com/en-us/contact, Androidmobilefeedback@concur.com
- On mobile app : while saving expense and uploading receipt images, the user has to wait till the receipt image has uploaded completely which can take quite a while for each image upload, leading to wasted time. Please provide ability for receipt image to upload in the background, so user can quickly add in all expenses.
- On mobile app : Please personalize experience of app by using info from the account profile for suggesting location for expense item, people interacted with, dates etc, since most users will tend to constantly use the same locations, people etc as they do on the laptop website.
- On mobile app : Please provide speech input for individual expense item fields, since typing on mobile is tedious, so that after scanning receipt, the speech input can be used.
- On mobile app : Please provide expense receipt scanning and character recognition, so that receipt amounts etc can be automatically entered in
- On laptop website : Please provide speech input for individual expense item fields, and ability to scan items using the laptop's webcam. Maybe google chrome webRTC can be used for this
- On mobile app and laptop website: Fields like "business purpose" etc should remember previously entered entries, so they don't need to be tediously entered in, again and again, but instead chosen from dropdown of previously entered entries

Ability to view Hindi comics .cbr and pdf files in browser
Ability to view Hindi comics .cbr and pdf files : I have many Hindi comic books in .cbr and .pdf file format , and there many online(http://www.google.com/images?q=hindi+comics). Is there a way that they can be quickly converted to graphicly format in google chrome webstore and made available for as many folks, to view, as possible via browser (with no download necessary, of pdf or cbr) ?
For ex: goto http://downloads4allu.blogspot.com/2009/07/hindi-comics.html and click "Download" to download a pdf.

California EDD site enhancements
Please forward to California EDD web-cert department the following suggestions for enhancing the California EDD website :
https://askedd.edd.ca.gov/asp/frmEDDCOMM.aspx
- Please provide ability to have direct deposit (into online bank account) of California EDD biweekly claim checks.Currently I can receive biweekly claim checks only by paper checks, which is inconvenient
- Please provide ability to have alerts or email notifications sent to me, when I need to submit online claim form at EDD web-cert (ie claim is ready-to-file), or when a check has been sent out etc. Currently, there are no alerts, and one has to keep logging into the site numeous times to check on status.
- Please provide link between original EDD application for benefits(apply4UI) and the EDD web-cert for biweekly submissions of claim forms. Currently, I had to create new login and password for EDD web-cert for biweekly submissions of claim forms after filing at apply4UI. Also after doing apply4UI, there is no online way of checking for application status, and one has to spend hours and hours on phone with EDD, which is inconvenient.
- Please provide link between original EDD application for benefits (eApply4UI) and the EDD web-cert, currently, the two are completely independent, and when one submits for benefits (eApply4UI), then there is not much info at EDD web-cert website on the details and profile created for checking of follow-on status. Also, one needs to create two different accounts : one for original EDD application for benefits (eApply4UI) and another for the EDD web-cert, with different passwords, ie after filling out eApply4UI, one needs to create new login and password for EDD web-cert, which is inconvenient. The more information that is available online, the less time the claimant needs to try to call up EDD on phone, for hours.
- Currently, there is no visibility into the process for a new person and person can have questions like : "how come the first check received has only one week of benefits instead of two weeks ?" The letter should provide the explanation that this was a "waiting week" etc, instead of user trying to call up EDD on phone, for hours. Also, there should be a way for claimant to flag to EDD, online, via web-cert that the person has found a job and will not be requesting more claim checks, etc

Online portal for companies and new hires, to manage new hire Offer letters and new hire process
Please foward to corporate headquarters:
Online portal for companies and new hires, to manage complete new hire Offer process, letters etc, is needed : from interviews, to offer letters and acceptance, to getting an employee number, setting up W4, I9, direct deposit etc, in an online portal (instead of many back-and-forth email and documents.) Currently, my friend got a new job offer letter with a company, and he got some 10 pdf files in email that he needed to edit with his information (like Offer acceptance, W4 withholding info, I9, direct deposit info, date-of-birth/social sec info, etc). And he had to spend almost a day to recreate a pdf that had the completed information (since he had to convert the pdf file to Word document , then images, then type in the info into the images, re-create Word document and since he could not email those back because of size limitation, generate a pdf file etc, from various internet resources that do file conversion) And he was not expert in those things. It would have been much simpler if the company had offered an online website where he could securely fill out that info, and hit "Submit" and it would have taken at most half hour.
Can your company provide such a solution ? It will be a huge productivity enhancer.
Also, for background check, instead of user manually filling in the "employment history"and "education history" , it will be great if user can simply upload their resume(in Word doc), and your service can automatically fill in the "employment history"and "education history" from the uploaded resume. That way, user does not need to spend lot of time to fill in the information manually, and it should take only a minute for the user to fill in the "employment history"and "education history".

a) Include sections for fixing not just mac products, but all kinds of laptops, electronic gadgets etc too
b) Go Social: provide a place for folks where other local folks can help fix gadgets for a small price. My digitical camera is not working, and I wouldnt mind getting it repaired for ten bucks
Thanks, Avinash

Fedex, UPS, DHL, USPS etc: Using internet communications (email, instant message, phone) to successfully deliver parcels at first delivery attempt
Please forward to corporate headquarters:
DHL, Fedex, UPS, USPS etc: Using internet communications (email, instant message, phone) to successfully deliver parcels to recipient at first delivery attempt
By collecting the email address and phone number of the parcel recipient, at the point at which the parcel is being shipped by the sender, your shipping company can co-ordinate via email and phone, with the recipient, as to the recipient's availability, and can co-ordinate routine and recipient can ensure that he will be at home to receive the parcel when it arrives. This will ensure that at the first delivery attempt itself, the recipient will receive the parcel, and save time, fuel and money for the shipping company and the parcel recipient.
A lot of times when I come home, I see, at the apartment complex door, stickers for undelivered parcels since the recipient was not home, and notices for 2nd, 3rd delivery attempt etc. Arranging for redelivery, for the recipient, is very tedious.

Dailygraphs : browser support
Please have Dailygraphs software be working on ALL browsers like Google chrome browser, Firefox etc , and not dependent on Windows computers or ActiveX etc. Also please make it all browser based, so I never have to download ANY software. Otherwise it becomes TOO tedious to use, especially on my different computers, some of which are Google Chrome-based. And hoping it will work on new Apple iPad/iPhone/google phone etc via html5 or other browser technology.

Lala enhancements
Please forward to Corporate headquarters:
Hello, Lala.com music is great.
a) If I upload some of my mp3s to Lala, since I own them, lets say in a year if I decide to move out of Lala. Can I then download these again (and my songs purchased at Lala ) again to my local desktop then ?
b) It will be great if you have more Indian songs and the Indian bollywood hit songs. For example , there are many at www.raaga.com etc
c) I would like to invite more friends etc to Lala , but the importing contacts from yahoo/gmail etc is not working. I tried this multiple times.

Actionable news
News sites can make news items more actionable, not passive.
Wrote to Economic times:
Dear Sir, We do not see hyperlinks in your articles for example at http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/infotech/internet/Google-unveils-new-look-for-Orkut/articleshow/5181314.cms
for example it has a statement "The new version would be initially available through invitation only ". This should hyperlink to http://en.blog.orkut.com/ on how to get the invitation etc that has details on that. Also more hyperlinks are needed in general in news sites, so that news is actionable, not passive.

Here's how Google could increase Google voice and Android adoption
Please forward to HTC/Motorola/Palm headquarters:
Here's how Google could increase Google voice and Android adoption : Can google voice work with HTC/Motorola to provide user's Google voice number as default HTC/Motorola/Palm mobile number and a cheaper Android smartphone in the process ? Currently, lots of my friends have Google voice number and if they can have an HTC/Motorola phone that is using their Google voice number, it would be more cost effective for everyone.

Internet-based kiosks for web Photo printing etc
Dear Sir, Visiting a Walmart/Walgreen yesterday to print out some color photos, they have kiosks, but such kiosks do not have Internet capability to print photos directly from Flickr or Google Picasaweb account, etc. Instead the kiosks use flash drive etc, which is inconvenient. Please provide at Walmart/Walgreen etc, such Internet-based kiosks fr web Photo printing etc.
Thanking you.

Click-to-call from Internet/netbook/iphone or other smartphone: enhancements
Click to call, from computer/netbook/iphone : enhancements:
Please forward to corporate headquarters:
Please enhance Click 2 call so that:
a) Click-to-call should provide productivity over phone calls for menu navigation: If I go to site like bankofamerica.com, and press Click 2 call, I should see, listed on my netbook/iphone screen, the different menu options, like "Press 1 for banking", "Press 2 for credit card", "Press 3 for mortgage", etc. Since this can be minutes of time wasted waiting on the phone listening to the menu options, such push-button menu choices will save huge time, if Click2call is done from netbook/smartphone, etc. Also, the time savings are even more, when a selection from a choice menu, leads to new menus, for example "If I press mortgate", then new menu options would be "Press 1 for new mortgage","Press 2 for existing mortgage", etc.
b) Click-to-call should take the callback phone number (and other information like name, email , etc) saved in my google chrome/facebook profile, and not keep asking me for this information or a callback phone number every time one presses Click2call. In fact, there should be no need for a callback phone number, as Click-to-call should connect directly from the computer/netbook/iphone that has been used to make the call request. Similarly, On smartphone, like iphone, etc, If someone would like to book a flight or taxi using iphone, or even open a new bank account, then they should not have to enter their home address/email address etc when voice chatting with customer service representative; the customer service representative on other side should be able to read-in automatically suggested address/email address , etc from my click2call client.
c) If I use Click-to-call for someone frequently, like a pizza store etc, to order a specific item or set of items mostly, then Click-2-call should remember those menu choices etc and automatically make those orders for me. "When you order with Click-to-call automatic ordering and online choice selection, you never have to hear that impatient, irritated tone of a teen-ager taking your order who doesn't understand the specials and just wants to be somewhere else, talking with anyone else but you. And the constant ringing of the phones in the background."
d) LivePerson online chat should include voice chat, besides text chat: I logged into Bank of America and was doing LivePerson chat with banking specialist, and wrote in text about my credit card request, and explained in detail, they then asked me to call up separate 1-800 number for credit card. So this is painful process, and timeconsuming. Please have LivePerson to accept voice calls using LivePerson, besides text chat. Then Bank of America should be able to transfer my voice call to appropriate department, online, without customer having to worry about calling another 1-800 number for a different department.
Here is chat transcript:
You: yes, I wanted to do transaction X on my credit card
Bank of America : I will be happy to assist you!
You: I wanted to do transaction X on my credit card
Bank of America: This needs to be done by department Z Please give us a call at 800.XXX.YYYY
e) Not needing to re-verify customer, and authentication : Right now, when we call up a customer service representation(CSR) using the click2call after logging in to their online account, then the CSR has to re-verify all the information about the customer, especially if the click2call happens after the customer has logged in. This is a big time-waste for CSR and also the customer. for example, if I call up HSBC bank after logging in to my online HSBC account, I should not have to reverify all my personal information with HSBC CSR ; they should know that I have already been authenticated and should be able to get on with the task at hand
f) After logging in at say above online bank account etc, click2call should provide me ability to leave a secure voicemail also (besides options to call up CSR , etc) : that way, as customer, I should be able to leave voice instructions on what is needed. This helps avoid the waiting process when the bank has to locate a CSR to answer me and I am put on hold. Leaving voicemail, I can simply leave instructions knowing that they will be answered.
g) When I call up Bank of America using the Click2call, after logging onto Bank of America account, it asks me, before connection to enter my name, phone number etc. These should be auto-saved so I dont have to re-enter this info again and again. Also preferably, Click2call should pick up these fields like name, phone number, etc from my online Bank of America account.
