Google Docs
Google docs is a new and very convenient website for storing files online. You can store different types of files such as word documents and other text documents, and you can also edit them right on the site.It is free and also allows you to do spreadsheets and PowerPoint's. Not only are these files accessible to the person who uploaded them, but if there is someone else that needs to use that same document, they can go on and edit it as well.Google docs can be very helpful for business use too. Companies that work on projects and multiple employees are sending different files in emails each time that are correcting something or adding on, it can get confusing. With google docs, this is much easier. Instead of email attachments one person can start the project on google docs and just let everyone edit it on the site. Once it is started, you can invite whoever else you need to work on it as well, all in the same document. This is a lot more efficient and there is lees room for error because it eliminates all of the attachments and tons of copies of the same document. Google docs can also makes storage of documents much easier. Instead of carrying around thumb drive and other portable devices, you can just save files to google docs. Then you can access the file from any computer over the Internet. Google docs is more of a file storage website then a social networking site, there are no real social, news or entertainment functions.
