My last post introduced you to Skydrive (a free online tool for storing and sharing) files, pictures, etc. To continue with this theme, I want to look at some more online tools. These days, more and more tasks can be accomplished via web tools/services. It is becoming easier to create, store, and share information via the web. The major advantage of this is that the computer is becoming less ... necessary. As long as you can get on the internet, you can do a lot of what you need regardless of what computer you are using.
Today, I want to look at Google docs. Like Skydrive, you can store docs at google docs, but unlike Skydrive, you can create new docs/spreadsheets/presentations or edit existing ones. Google docs also allows you to share the files so people can view them or even help edit them. Again, this reduces the need to work at the same computer to create files or even to carry your documents with you. Even if you use Google docs for some personal tasks, it is worth taking the time to look at it and try it out.
