Module 3.3 - Focus on Google Drive

 Focus on Google Drive

Google Drive is Google's solution to cloud storage. By default, you get 15 gb of storage when you create your account, which sounds like a lot, but you share that storage with Gmail, which may use up that space pretty quickly. Documents that are created in Google Docs are not counted against your Google Drive storage space, but the documents that you upload are. You can selectively decide what you need to sync to your computer or the Drive app.
