1. Google Docs and Spreadsheets

Google Docs is a great tool that is quickly becoming the standard for file sharing and document management. With it you can quickly create a file share structure that is linked to all Google Docs users, with a big abundance of different file sharing options.

You can also create a public Google Docs folder where work is all setup and alphabetically easy to find.

2. Google Search

Just like Bing, Google searches are always changing. You can type any word you want and Google will right away come up with millions of results from webpages. But Google also offers an internal search option that can be used for more specific situations.

For example, if you are looking for "site:ricsheet.com:2008/04/27/ clinching-connect-point-lasers-for-office- Furniture- Integrators-and-Designers-POS Market.html" then you can type "site:ricsheet.com: 2008/04/27/ clinching-connect-point-lasers-for-office- furnaces- integrators-and-designers- POS" into the Google search field and hit enter.

3. Google Picasa

This is a powerful software tool that scans and tags photos. A quick look at Picasa's features helps clarify what this tool is all about.

This software tool is capable of scanning a plain English photo of a surface area of your chosen area and produces an HTML file of the photo with information about the surface area.

The best feature is that the results are integrated into Picasa, making integration of the software easy. This way you can easily find the photos you want to work on whether they are vacation photos or business photos of the office.

How does a plain English photo transform into a Google Document?

essence, photos are stored in the following format:

< html >< head) < /head >< title> < /title >< body > < /body >< /html >

and then saved in the following format:

< html >< head) < /head >< title> < /title >< body > /html >

Now, let's say you have a word document that consists of some photos. You can label them, let's say ' Holiday Clip ' or ' Bruce Lee Restaurant', and add some comments inside the photo labels.

For easy searching, Google offers a search feature that will allow you to enter a keyword and click search. The results will be displayed directly on your web page.

You can also join any Google group with the 'ingroup' command. To do this, you will need to enter the group name in the address bar, and hit enter. To add a new group, you simply type the name of the group in the address bar, and hit enter.

reinstallation of Picasa in Picasa

After you have uploaded a number of photos in Picasa, you may notice that sometimes, they are not showing up in the preview screen. You can 'edit' a photo in Picasa, and select 'restore' it. A dialog box will pop up showing you the photos that you would like to restore. You can delete them, or leave them.

If you do want to keep some photos, you can do so again by selecting add or remove. You can do this a second time in Picasa.

aux Commands in Picasa

There are some commands that you can use when surfing in Picasa. listing is one of them.list will show you a list of all the journals and blogs you have added to your Google reader.

You can check out sms_ exclude option. sms_markert is a command to specify a blog or site you want to be added to your reader, if it is RSS compatible.

4. Corset

Whilst one of the biggest problems for users, who are on a Kindle is that the page doesn't show up, and it is impossible to view your blog on their site. I have tested various Kindle options and I can say that the rivalams of the Kindle show up all the time.

So, if you have decided to buy a Kindle eBook reader, and you have bought other Google products such as Gizmo, or Orkut etc. then you might want to try the following option.

option is a keyword that you can set as your primary keyword. Once you have selected it, all that you have to do is to click on the tag of your choice, and all your old tags screen will be displayed.

Make sure that you select a tag with a low number, so that it will show up with low frequency.

That's it for the article, we will cover other tools in some other articles...
