PE4_Google Docs, Learning to Create a New Doc

Here I am learning to use Google Docs.  Lynda.com tutorials have help me to understand even the most basic concepts of google docs.  I started out by learning how to create a new document load it into a folder and label everything.

On the main Goggle Doc interface select the Create New Tab on the left side of the screen.  This is a drop down menu.  Here you can select any type of document that you like.  For example, blank word documents, spreed sheets, presentations, drawings and even a folder for organizing.

Here I have created a new doc.  The range of tools to edit your document is quite extensive.







Next,  I will create a folder to place all my unshared documents in.

Select Create New File.


Name the File.


Save

Here you can see the list of folders that I have. There is only one, but it is a folder.




Google Docs enables multiple people in different locations to collaborate simultaneously on the same doc from any computer with Internet access.  And better than the software you’d have on your desktop, you can access them from anywhere you access your Gmail – so no worries about computer crashes or leaving a paper at home.
