FRIDAY FINDS: Google
Welcome to your Friday Finds... here I will share a new product or service that I think is helpful, practical and a good use of organization!!! Today's focus is Google!
I know I have told you that I love to drink the Google Kool-Aid, and I do... I really do, but I have to ask, do you really take advantage of all the great things Google has to offer? It seems like everyday (litterally) Google, adds more and more programs to it's arsinel of helpful tools. It's like they suck us in so that someday we will say..."I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU." Here are just a few that I use... everyday!
IT'S THE BEST ORGANIZATION TOOL!!!
Blogger - create your own blog!
Analytics - track who visits your website or blog
Reader - track all blogs you want to read... in one page!
Calendar - use as a community family calendar or for your personal usage
Gmail - create a free email account (okay this one I personally don't use, but I know lots of people who do).
iGoogle - put all your favorite applications right on your desktop
Earth - pictures of the earth (in 3-D) can't explain it... you have to see it!!! Very, very cool (even my kids love it).
The list is VERY LONG, and oh, did I mention that Google services are FREE? What's not to love about FREE?
Do you Google?
