As web applications become more robust, they evolve beyond simple compatibility with desktop software and begin to take full advantage of their online nature. In Google Docs Essential Training, David Rivers thoroughly explores Google’s web application suite for creating, managing, and sharing the most common office document types: word processing files, presentations, and spreadsheets. He highlights how the collaboration workflow is improved when many people can revise a document simultaneously on a secure server, from any connected device, without installing or updating anything but a web browser. David covers the features common to the suite and unique to each application, including the use of lists, styles, tables, and objects in word processing documents; sheets, functions, and formulas in spreadsheets; and themes, video, and speaker notes in presentations. Example files accompany the course.
