Taking Microsoft Office Into Office 2.0

by Randy Tuggle

The latest and greatest thing online is known as Office 2.0.  I use a free service from Google called Google Docs & Spreadsheets to save my important files to the web. Simply put, Google Docs & Spreadsheets allows you to create Word docs and Excel spreadsheets free - as long as you have a Google ID to login and save your files.

The real nifty thing about “GD&S” is that if you have an MS Office file on your computer that you’d like to store online, you simply upload it to “GD&S” - and wallah! Your files are safe and backed up.

Another cool thing you can do is this; create your own PDF files for free WITHOUT Adobe Acrobat software! Just select a file in your list, and choose SAVE AS PDF! The Word file is downloaded to your PC as a PDF instantly! This IS COOL! You can create your own e-book by just writing in Word, uploading the file to GD&S, and downloading the PDF format of the file.

Excel spreadsheets are just as cool. Another feature of GD&S is to download files as OpenOffice 2.o files. For those that don’t know about OpenOffice, stay tuned. I’ll be back tomorrow with some more FREEBIE advice!
