" Google docs"

Have you ever lost your document somewhere? You cannot find your USB blash drive? You cannot tell which draft is most recent as you have too many drafts? You are not confident in your wrriting? Those troubles will go away by using Google docs. Your documents are stored online. Internet is a virtual hard drive. You can access your document from any computer now. And you can invite your colleagues to review your document. They can also add comments. The Google docs offer the equivalent of Word, Excel, PowerPoint. But how? Let's learn how to do this in the workshop and stop spending time on searching your document.
