Thing 18

I took a look at the site for our online productivity (word processing, spreadsheet) tools--Google Docs & Spreadsheets. I used "Help" to get an overview of what this is all about, and then scanned some of the "Top 5 Questions" and the "Getting Started" section.

Some advantages to using this resource are:

• Documents are online and can be shared and edited by others.
• Documents are saved off-site so they are not lost in case of a local hard drive crash.
• Documents can easily be accessed by users who frequently travel or are in the field and not at a stationary workplace.
