I have used Google Drive on occasions for documents and sharing photos.  I find it similar to dropbox and prefer it to drop box as it runs off the google platform and has more features from what I can see.

I had fun using the drawing tool. I delved into my creative side and created a colourful abstract and sent it to a friend for their comments.

I probably still prefer the old email attachment for sensitive documents, I'm not 100% certain how secure Drive is. I can see it working for students and academics though, a different way to submit assignments or group work

Google is the main product I use for emails, photo sharing, youtube and google maps for a very rough guide (but never rely on the maps). I never explored the news tab though and did that today, can't say that I'll use it again though.

looking forward to Thing 7 & 8 after a week's holiday.

  1. Drive is great. The thing, however with Dropbox is that it syncs quite nicely with apps on my iPad like Goodreader where you can view your your docs offline. I still use Dropbox for most of my files in the cloud, but may investigate Drive again. Cheers, Vicki

  2. We do look at DropBox a little later (I personally love Dropbox).
    One thing I did like about Drive was creating the form that everyone used to register their blogs...it was so easy!
    Good to know what is out there....
