Google docs allows editors to manage stories, updates on graphs, and information to be shared in a presentation to be stored online instead of in our computers. We can invite others to look at, edit and supply new information without adding clutter to our personal computers.
Google is easily accessible and instructs new users on how to use, and the advantages of using google docs. Creation and collaboration with others is done quick and easy. Charts can be added, deleted, or changed by authorized people.
Information can be organized and is available to import, export, and published, all from one place. Different people can be authorized access to different areas of expertise. Editors can all go to one place and edit the articles that will be published. Deadlines can be met easily.
Google would like to make people believe that they will replace Microsoft with their Google docs; however, interviews with users and speculators have indicated that most computers are set up for use with Microsoft products and changing would be expensive and involve learning all over again. Not to mention the fact that it is futuristic and not now.
Currently businesses do not use Google docs on a regular basis. They do use Microsoft for the operating systems. I can see benefits for the business and the private party, but most of us are still learning the dangers of internet sources not being secure. Anything on the web is available to anyone who knows how to find it.
