“Google Docs” and “Google Drive”
Google Docs is used in school environments to help increase
teacher efficiency, student engagement, and school wide collaboration. Now
Google Docs is referred to as Google Drive because it not only holds documents,
but can hold video files, pictures, spread sheets, and upload documents. You can quickly share documents with any of
your contacts, and edit spread sheets with support for text formatting,
multiple sheets and sorting. It can also be used for presentations, being that
it has full animations and speaker notes. Google Drive is a user friendly collaborative
tool that allows you to connect with others, and share your information quickly
and easily. This open source program can
be used anywhere that one has internet access.
Google Drive is a useful tool for businesses because instead
of spending money on downloading programs such as Microsoft word, they can use
Google Drive as a free and efficient way to keep document and files. It is a
tool that can be used to keep a business organized, and to share information
with different sectors of the business. Instead
of spending hundreds of dollars on software licenses, they can use Google Drive, which contains a fully featured word
processor, spreadsheet and presentation application. The Google Drive service
is a great opportunity for small businesses wanting to reduce their startup
costs. Also, as the business grows, they can add more features to their Google
account, for only 5 dollars a month. Also, with the use of Google Drive, you no
longer need to worry about data storage or backup, being that this is all
handled by Google. Lastly, Google Drive is easy to access, and can be used from
a computer, smart phone, or tablet.
Socially, Google Drive can be used for collaboration between
people. A feature on Google Drive is a chat that allows you to speak to others.
While
working on a file in Google Drive, you can communicate with others working on
the same file, and you can all collaborate on the file in real time. If you and
a partner are drafting a document with Google Docs, you can chat about your
progress and edit to the document at the same time.
Google Drive can also be used as a
source of entertainment. Although the main use is not for entertainment
purposes, one can upload videos and pictures on the site and can share them
with others. Although the site does not
have many entertainment sources, it can be used to create presentations, and
has full animation.
Similar to entertainment, Google
Drive is not necessarily used for recreational purposes. Although it can be
used to store images and videos, it is not used in the same way as a site such
as Facebook or Twitter which are used during lesuire time. The main purpose of Gooel Drive is to write and store documents,
spreadsheets, and presentations.
