Keith - Google Gmail/Documents/Calendar - 3/6/12

Bron,

I'm not sure what you find attractive about DropBox.

Since you have a Google Gmail account, you also

have easy access to Google Documents which sync

without the need for any client software such as

DropBox.

I use Google Chrome as my standard browser, so

I suppose I feel like everybody else does that too.

I like the fact that a single Chrome window allows

tabs to Gmail, Documents, etc. with a single login

to my Google account.


Bron,

I've never found it very useful to do any online shared

calendar stuff.  I do keep some stuff like appointments

in my Google Calendar with automatic sync between

my computers and my phone, but mainly I live off a

paper calendar.  I guess my approach stems from the

fact that a lot of my events have only vague times like

"tomorrow afternoon." which doesn't exactly fit into an

electronic calendar.

Bron,

After trying it, I see that a Google+ Hangout has the

screen share stuff as well.  It looks to me like this

is the way to go.  When you are signed in to Google+

and when you are looking at the Stream, there is a

thing at the upper right where you can start a hangout.

This will invite the users you choose to join the hangout.
