Before I talk about Google Docs, I want to be clear that I get nothing in return from Google; I am simply sharing the possibilities that Google provides, to try and be a web mentor. I find Google Docs incredibly useful. The video below explains how Google docs can be a useful web tool.
There are other uses for Google docs, as mentioned at the end of the video, and I’ll introduce you to how you can use the spreadsheet as a survey tool in a future blog post.

Looks like a useful tool but what about confidentiality and privacy?
