New Larger Display for the iPhone 5?
9to5mac has found the above image on the website of a Apple parts reseller. It looks like the iPhone 5 may gain a 4in screen and a razor thin bezel surrounding it if this is for real. After all the issues with the antenna in the media, it would not be surprising to see Apple completely redesign the next iPhone.

Google Cloud Connect Keeps Microsoft Docs Synced in the Cloud
Google has opened up their document syncing service, Cloud Connect, to the public. This service lets you sync Microsoft office documents with Google Docs and changes made tot he files are synced across. This is a great way for people to collaborate on projects, or keep a back up of your files in the cloud. You can make changes in either Office or Google Docs and those changes will appear in both places.
To get your sync on you will need Microsoft Office running on a Windows PC, and to download THIS plugin.
As of right now, Mac is not supported. Google gave the following reasoning for this:
“Many of you have also asked about availability for Macs. Unfortunately due to the lack of support for open APIs on Microsoft Office for Mac, we are unable to make Google Cloud Connect available on Macs at this time. We look forward to when that time comes so we can provide this feature to our Mac customers as well.”
