Google Docs Usage

As a student I can say that USB memory sticks are a popular thing, but with GoogleDocs, they are a thing of the past! GoogleDocs has become a worthy application! I have always struggled with compatability between computers. On many occasions I have forgotten my USB memory stick or have lost it once or twice and felt as if everything was falling apart because I could not access a paper or a presentation. Now with GoogleDocs, I am able to create a paper or a presentation or a spreadsheet on the internet, save it, and access it later from a different computer via the internet. It's a wonderful feeling to be able to do this!!!
Just recently, I had the opportunity to put GoogleDocs to use outside CEP 416. I was working in a group project for my ENG 210 course and we needed to create a lesson plan, presentation, and worksheets for an actual lesson in ENG 210. There was two other students in my group and all three of us had a busy week in front of us. After a few suggestions from myself, we ended up collaborating all three (lesson plan, presentation, and worksheets) from GoogleDocs! They both had a Google account for e-mail purposes, but neither of them were familiar with GoogleDocs. So I was able to direct them to the page and they explored the application and we began collaborating! When it came time to execute our lesson plan, I logged into my Google account on the classroom's computer and pulled up our presentation! The other members in my group were fascinated with the collaborative-enabling features and the easy accessibility. They have told me that they are going to keep this application in mind for future use. :)

Here's the first slide to our presentation:
