AwayFind is all about saving you time.   And with our new Google Apps Marketplace version, it’s now even easier, and faster, for our Google Apps users to create alerts…

1.  Instant status reporting for alerts

If you already have an alert setup for a topic or sender, not only can you see that there’s an alert created but also how you’ll be notified and when it will expire.

Right within your email view you can see that you’ll be notified by an iPhone push notification if the author of this email emails you again in the next week:

2.  1-click settings for alerts

Instead of having to click several  times every time you create an alert…it now takes just one click (“Follow this Person” or “Follow this Topic”).  We even store your most frequent settings. But of course, you can always modify the settings for each alert you create.

For instance, you might generally want to be notified by iPhone for one week from now if a person writes or a topic is updated.  You can set [iPhone, one week] as the 1-click preference for your account.  To set your 1-click preferences, click the Settings link right from the gadget.

3.  Faster, more fun setup for new users (pardon me, but I think saving time is fun)

While existing users don’t need to worry about this (since their account’s already configured!), we’re pretty excited about our new setup process, which takes place entirely within the AwayFind gadget that appears right at the bottom of your emails.  You can finish the setup right there, or even with your phone over SMS.  This is pretty much the entire setup:
