Discover how to use Google Docs, the free cloud-based word processing program.
- [Jess] With our busy lifestyles, we need to be able to work anywhere, on any device or computer. Google Docs is a free product from Google that gives you a complete word processing package online that you can access through any web browser or mobile device. This means that you can write a novel while commuting to your day job. Or read and improve attachments that other people send you while at the dentist. In my LinkedIn learning course, we'll build a doc together and add images and tables. I'll show you how to work with revisions, publish your doc to the web, and how to collaborate simultaneously with other users. Finally, I'll show you how to translate your doc to another language and use the Google Docs app in a tablet to work anywhere. My name is Jess Stratton and I use Google Docs to run both my business and my personal life. Let's get started!
