Various Google tools are available
which can make our life more convenient.
We all possess Smartphones and
with technological networking evolutions,
most of us have 24*7 internet connection as well.
So we can use online tools like maps.
All Google Tools are Multi-platform and
can be accessed both from PC as well as
Mobile.
Various Google products are trying to
automate our lives
and enhance inter-connectivity
between natural habits and software
executing them with the help of the Internet.
We can use:
- Google Drive:
- Google Calendar:
- Google Keep:
- Google Assistant:
- Google Docs:
- Google Sheets:
- Google Slides:
- Google Contacts:
- Google Maps:
Google DRIVE:
- We can upload all our Media as well as
- Doc files on Drive and access them
- anywhere, anytime.
- We can share a link to that file/folder
- to peoples so that they can either access
- or edit files.
- Drive files upload limit is 15 GB for
- General account and it can be increased
- to 10.1 TB using unlimited storage.
Google Docs, Sheets, Slides:
- Nowadays we are connected to internet 24*7.
- So we can use Docs, Sheets, and Slides.
- Docs, Sheets, Slides are used to create
- a word document, Excel sheets, and
- PowerPoint presentations.
- These are efficient as changes are saved
- directly to Google Drive so we can access
- files virtually from any PC, mobile or
- any other remote PC through Gmail login.
- Also, we need not transfer files from
- one pc to another pc with pen drives.
- Tools available in Docs, Sheets, Slides
- are similar to Microsoft Word.
- The main advantage of these is that
- multiple people can edit, view and
- comment on a single file at same time.
- So I think it’s time to shift from
- traditional word to Docs.
- There are 3 modes (editing, suggesting,
- viewing)
- GOOGLE DOCS:
- We can get word file in 7 different
- formats viz.word, pdf, etc.
- Various pre-defined template sets are
- available for eg.Resume,Letters,Reports,etc.
- Various Add-ons are available which
- are updated regularly.
- So Google Docs is new generation tool
- which we should adopt as early as
- possible.
- GOOGLE SHEETS:
- Sheets has many templates as like:
- Weekly time sheet, calendar, attendance
- report, to-do list, etc.
- Also, We can get excel file in 6 different
- formats viz.excel, pdf, etc.
- GOOGLE SLIDES:
- Slides possess many templates like a
- case study , photo album, yearbook, etc.
- We can get the file in 7 formats eg.pdf,
- ppt, JPEG images, PNG images, etc.
GOOGLE CALENDAR, KEEP:
- Google calendar and keep are
- multi-platform, convenient to use tools
- which can be very useful to prepare
- a schedule and to get notified about the
- schedule.
- We can add notes both on PC and mobile
- and access to them on both platforms.
- Also Google Assistant can notify us
- about our daily briefings, so we need
- not to open the calendar to see details
- about today’s schedule.
GOOGLE MAPS:
- Google Maps is a most efficient way to
- navigate to different places.
- Maps use mobile tower location for
- location and for the precise location it
- uses GPS(Global Positioning System).
- While navigating it gives us
- approximate remaining time and
- remaining distance to our destination.
- Also, information about Restaurants,
- Hotels and Petrol pumps, etc. on our
- route is provided.
- A new feature of ‘Location Sharing’ is
- available.With the help of which we
- can share our location “live” during our journey.
GOOGLE ASSISTANT:
- Assistant is basically voice interface in
- between mobile and us.
- Assistant can help us to do some
- activities through voice instructions:
- Calling a number
- Massaging a number
- Schedule a task
- Schedule alarms
- Set timers
- Assistant can tell us about all of our
- events in that day.You just need to say
(”Good Morning”).
- You can activate Assistant simply by
- saying “OK Google!”
- You can also have fun games like snake
- and Lucky Trivia.
- You can ask any query to assistant to
- find the answer as well.
CONCLUSION:
- Overall Google has provided us with
- many tools which can make our life
- more efficient.
- We can improve our work efficiency
- with help of these tools.
- Finally, I would say “It’s must to have knowledge of these tools in this Digital World”.
