There are still a lot of folks out there that are not taking advantage of the simple technology that could make their life so much easier. How about The Cloud. Heard of it? I have 3 simple steps for you to follow with me. To be clear, here is a WIKI definition ; Cloud storage is a model of networked online storage where data is stored in virtualized pools of storage which are generally hosted by third parties. Did I lose you? Try this example.
My husband and I work together in the same room, on different computers. On a daily basis, we need to share, edit and collaborate office files. I have tried a few different “cloud’ storage files, but there is one that I REALLY LIKE! Google Drive, see below the simple steps to share and edit your files online.
If you don’t have one yet, get a google email address. Believe me I didn’t want to either when I first was approached with the idea. I was so happy with my Yahoo! But you don’t have to use your google email, just think of it like a login, so you can use world-class FREE services with wild abandon.
- This is a very simple process, go here… and sign up.
- ***Now that you have a way to login. You can use the Google Drive right through your browser.
- Go to Google.com, look at the top menu bar, click on Drive
You can share and simultaneously edit all different kinds of files with your co-workers or anyone for that matter. From documents to spread sheets to presentations, Google gives you 5 MB of space for free (which is quite a bit). Think of the ways our community leaders could benefit from something like this…and thus our community benefits as well!
