Google Docs, Create And Share Your Work Online

Google Docs is a free way to store your documents online. The easiest way I can explain this is with an example using a Newsletter. A Newsletter is often created and converted by a group of people. The information for a newsletter also comes from a number of places local, nation or even international. Just think of it the number of phone calls and emails back and forth and the effort to keep all the different pieces of data together, correct and up to date. You would normally have to have someone organise all of the information into one document and then make changes every time a new bit of information comes to light, not a good position to be in.


So this is where Google Docs chip in, you can upload existing files so you do not need to start a project from scratch. The file formats that are accepted are commonly found within an office setup they include DOC, XLS, ODT, ODS, RTF, CSV, PPT, etc. You may create basic documents from scratch of by using a template. You will get all the standard editing features you are well-known with such as altering fonts, adding images, adding tables, comments and bullet lists. You will be up and running in no time. A similar theme from what you are used to offers you toolbar buttons so you can easily adjust the common elements you would expect when you work offline.
