“Were pretty serious about that mission, including the universally accessible part,” Knaster and Yao wrote about Googles policy. “It means making products that everyone can use—including Mac users.”

The new blog and the Mac versions of some of Googles applications come a little more than a month after Google CEO Eric Schmidt was elected to Apples board of directors.
