Social business platform Nimble has added its customer relationship management (CRM) app to the Google Chrome Web Store, allowing businesses to more effectively leverage the speed and functionality of Google’s popular Web browser.

Nimble’s social CRM is built for businesses that want to transform their social media followers into lifelong customers by helping them manage all of their business contacts, email, social communications, activities and sales in a single platform.

Businesses that utilize Google Chrome can now implement Nimble functionality right into the powerful browser by downloading the app from the Chrome Web Store, installing it and adding a shortcut to their app pages.

“Our immediate availability in the Google Chrome Web Store makes it even easier for the millions of small businesses who are leveraging social media and cloud computing to more effectively engage with their customers and grow their business,” says Nimble co-founder Gilles Marchand.

Google is taking steps towards offering offline access to its web apps, by offering Gmail offline starting today— and offline Google Calendar and Docs over the next week.

Gmail offline, a Chrome Web Store app, will allow users to read, respond, organize and archive email without an Internet connection. The app is powered by HTML5, and is based on the Gmail web app for tablets, which was also made to function with or without Internet access.

As for Google’s other offline apps— Google Calendar allows users to view events and RSVP to appointments without an Internet connection, while Google Docs allows users to view documents and spreadsheets. Although offline editing isn’t available yet with Google Docs, it may be in the future.

To use Google Calendar or Docs offline, simply click on the gear icon that appears in the top right corner of the web app and choose the offline access option.

Google also stated in their blog that they are working on more offline app features, as well as making offline access available on more browsers.
