Google is a pretty awesome thing. There is no need for me to link to Google, or explain what Google is. It’s basically even become a verb - don’t tell me you don’t Google your potential clients!
The number of tools Google has available are amazing. I thought it would be interesting to hear what other VAs use Google for. Here’s my list:
- Google Docs - Connie McVicker and I use this to collaboratively write our ebooks.
- Google Reader - This is where I get my favorite RSS feeds.
- Gmail - Does anyone not have a gmail account? It’s wonderful.
- Google Calendar - Note to self - sync calendar with Outlook calendar. Great tool.
- iGoogle - Customized homepage, where I can get my local weather, news of choice (based on topic) and even find out what time the sun will set.
- Google Analytics - To find out how many visitors I’m getting to my site.
- Google Search - Kind of goes without saying.
So, what do you use Google for?
I use Google when my kids ask me a dumb question… LOL I tell them to go Google it and let me know the answer. And I often find myself saying, how on earth did I ever survive with out Google?
