Google Drive For Ipad

Today we tried out the Google Drive app for ipad. Just like the Blogger app, Google Drive is good...  But not great. The web version is much more easy to use/understand. The app has a way to go before it is as good as the website itself, but it's a good start. I do like how you can access what you did on the website. But that was the only thing I really liked about this app.

Google Drive

Google Drive allows people to work on a document/drawing/presentation on separate computers in separate rooms. Google Drive will allow you to choose how private you want your documents to be. I didn't like good drive that much. It lagged a ton, when I clicked somewhere with the mouse it wouldn't click on the spot I was pointed at (if that makes sense). Google drive is a good idea. But it needs some work.

Google Tricks

Today we learned about google tricks. Google can do many things that we didn't know about.(;

Google do a barrel roll. The results page will do a full spin.

Google the loneliest number. The Google calculator will tell you that this is 1.

Google the answer to life, the universe, and everything. The Google calculator will tell you that this is 42 – a reference to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

Go to google.com/pacman. The Google logo will become a playable Pacman game.

These are just a few tricks that google can do. Search the web and find a few for yourself!

Add-Ons

Today we experimented with add-ons for the browser "firefox". We downloaded as many add-ons as possible. Too many too talk about. So I will show you a few add-ons that I downloaded.

One add on I got was called Awesome Facts. In this add on you get a fact delivered to you on every webpage you visit.

Another add on I downloaded was called Play Drums. In this add you can play drums with your keyboard. Every key you hit plays a different sound.

In my opinion, this is the number 1 add-on of all time. I'm not even going to tell you about it. Just download it. Nyan Cat.

I hope this post was able to show you some cool add-ons that will help/entertain you.
