When Google Apps first launched in August 2006 it was free and described as โa service available at no cost to organizations of all shapes and sizes.โ
Free for everyone lasted until February 2007, when Google announced a premier edition of the service with more storage and an uptime guarantee. The cost was (and is) $50 per user per year. (read more...)
This is interesting to me, because I have always said (whether true or untrue - just my opinion) "Google could care less about the revenue from SketchUp Pro". Now I wonder if maybe they are thinking about other ways to generate revenue - besides advertising?
