What else can developers do for Google Apps?
A open, flexible Facebook-style API for Apps would be awesome. Imagine the community building the next generation office platform.
Right now, developers outside of Google can write Gadgets that live on the outside layout areas of GMail. Google developers have done some interesting things with Labs – I use the easy to find "Mark as Read" button / gadget. However, if trusted development teams in the community, and developers at companies adopting Google Apps, had complete access to everything – including the interface, Apps would meet the challenge set forth to it by Microsoft Office (and its powerful friend, VBA). A fully programmable cloud-based office suite.
