> Google provide you with some unique data that you then upload to your

> Google verify you own the account.
> You create users in google for your domain eg, rocky.smolin at bchacc.com, or
> max.smolin at bchacc.com
> Optional step, You assign nicknames to the users, eg, Rocky, info, sales,
> support, papa, themainman

> Also, you have shared calendars and groups and a whole lot more.
