I like the idea of using Google docs. I've used similar document share-things before and they are very handy when a group is working on one large project. But I have yet to use it for all the documents I have on my flash drive. Something about having my drive as one place for all my things. Logic tells me that Google docs would be much more convenient, but emotionally, I want to have things on a drive. Why is that? Is it because I'm afraid of the possibility of things getting lost on the Internet? (I'm one that doesn't worry too much about hackers.) Things I used to depend on being there on the Internet seem to disappear with regularity, though that seems more about people redesigning their web pages than the thing actually disappearing. I'll try to get the courage to take that emotional step to start my next project on Google docs. Help me!

Hi Leereer,
I wouldn't give up my flash drive completely, either. It's a great backup tool - just in case you can't access the internet. Just remember to have the most current version saved on your flash drive.
I was thinking about this the other day. Google also has a presentation package - like PowerPoint. I thought about using that exclusively for my presentations. Then, I thought about the times that I've gone to do a presentation and not had the internet - or had a bad connection. It's good to have a backup that's not internet related. Just in case...
Keep on playing!
Jean
