Google Docs

I just used Google Docs for the first time this week, and although I still have very little knowledge about it, I do know that it is very easy to use and that it is handy for creating all sorts of presentations. I just developed an organized resume using Google Docs and I am very pleased with the way it turned out. A big advantage to using Google Docs over other applications like Microsoft Word is that you can invite peers and colleagues to view your work produced through Google Docs by using your gmail account (instead of sending an attachment in an email and downloading files in order to view them). Google Docs also makes it very easy to upload files that you have already created elsewhere, and organize them in an easy-to-access order. I want to make an effort to introduce Google Docs to my students in the future, and have them create some assignments using Google Docs instead of other methods of presenting.
