Google Products

For the past couple of weeks we have been exploring Google Products. We explored Google Maps, which is used for finding places that you may not know the address for, or getting road maps to go somewhere when you really aren't sure how to get there. We also explored Google Trends. It is a sight that shows what kind of things are trending or were trending recently. Another cool app we used was Google Drive. Google Drive is a very helpful way to store documents, and still be able to get them on another computer. We practiced using spreadsheets, presentations, and just blank documents on there. We also learned how to share a document so that other people will be able to view and edit it. We also used Panoramio. It is just like Google Maps, but it adds more pictures of the place yo are looking for. We also learned about Google Books and Google News. Google Books is an easy way to find a book you want to read and be able to read it instantly. Google News is just like a news website, but its all different websites put into one. We also learned about Google+. Google+ is a social media site kind of like Facebook. You can share pictures with your circles of friends, and you can instant message people if you need to. Learning about all of these was very fun and educational.
