Did a fair bit of exploring of Google Docs today.
This is a really fantastic tool - you can edit your documents (word docs, spreadsheets or slides) anywhere, anytime and the documents are stored online. A very powerful tool for collaboration. There's no need for copies of email flying all over the shop with everyone not knowing which the latest version is. And yes, it is another free web tool by Google.
Here's a little powerpoint presentation I have created using Google Docs. In it I have listed down all the interesting features of Google Docs. It's really easy to do - after you have created your presentation, one click on the "publish" button and voila! - the URL willbe created. You can then just cut and paste the link here in your blog to publish it.
Managed to do a little e-chat(yet another useful feature in Google Docs) while running through the presentation online with hubby :) Tested out the "Start presentation" button and then the "Take control of presentation" - you can view your document online with other people whom you have invited as collaborators and then chat with them like you are discussing work online and make the necessary amendments.
I like this tool :) Definitely a great idea for students to know how to use this tool for projects.
