I decided to read an article about google hangouts since its the most I use from google.Google hangout article is all about ways to utilizing hangouts to create and connect on there. They used the video chat aspect to have chats and also do interviews through hangouts. You can hold meetings especially if everyone is scattered about and can't be in the same room, and also can offer assessment feedback online. What i found interesting was that it would make for a really great customer support on any product and you can host a launch party too, a great way to expand your product simple, quick, and effortless. I found that the 2 most helpful are students who live far from school or cant make it to class can chat with their professor with online hours and perform presentations wherever you have your computer or laptop.
I loved reading the article "How I learned to say, Hi Google docs, Goodbye MS word," because I am switching over to google docs. With all the things I learned in class about the endless wonders of google docs how could I not be sold on giving up MS word. Of course the author gave props to MS word for being reliable and having great features( even though they didn't use all of them). At first they were not sold on Google since he wasn't satisfied but once all the updates were done it turned into a whole different story. He liked the fact that it was simple, free and did not confuse you and you have the added bonus of the cloud, which required no download. hello google docs, goodbye MS word
Quick sheet for Google Drive, this article gives you pictures and step by step instructions on how to navigate through google drive. It is literally like the Google Drive for dummies guide, starting from how to upload files to how to sort your files. This is worth taking a look into especially if you have never used drive before. You don't have to take my word for it but I am sure if you click on the link you'll have everything you need to make your way through drive like a pro on your first time.
Google can give you many things, such as a scientific calculator, check flights, and even movie times! You can go on google docs add quotes and even have google cite your work instantly, I know this would have saved me so much time if I would have known this sooner. You can even search for articles from 1 specific site and say you want sites similar to (example) history.com it will find sites close to it! #amazing. You can even create surveys, forms, drawings, and maps.

Stephanie you did a nice job recapping what we covered in class. I agree google is amazing and I am stunned that it has all these amazing features.
ReplyDeleteStephanie, you did a great job at summarizing your articles. I also read the same article by Charles Cooper and realized that I had done the same thing by switching to Google software. It makes it so much easier as a commuter to communicate with other students, just like this! Great job!
