Tip #81 - Google docs
g on to your Google account, use the Drive option along the top left of the screen to access the Google docs area. Click the Create button to choose the type of document you would like to start. The new document opens in a new tab in your browser.

But not only do you have a complete cloud-based office at your disposal, you can also upload your creations and share them with people online, using real time chat to communicate and collaborate back and forth. I recently invited a class to make changes to a document. The participants were able to see on the projected screen, all of the changes that were being made simultaneously by everyone in the room!
As you can see, Google docs gives Microsoft a real run for the money, and Google docs is FREE. And this also works on iPads and other tablets, allowing you to use them to create documents, spreadsheets and presentations and email and share them – without turning on your laptop or computer.
Happy Computing!
