    For someone who has hearing problems and often have difficulty with UA-cam clips, I find you are very clear and precise. So thank you for that and your very useful tips.

    It's really Coool to have a guy like you out there that spends a lot of time just making good information videos about the computer services and programs we all use. I just found out that if I clicked at the bottom of most of your pages it takes me to a page that lists all of your videos how great is that. Keep up the good work.

    Hey Steve,
    Just found your vid. As a fellow techie I have to say this is soooo awesome! Your breakdown was so on point and simple to understand but at the same time made me think of other cool things I could start doing with this in my workflows or just other nerdy things I do on the side. Thanks again and I look forward to more vids and will check out your past content :). Have a great one!

    Steve, Thank-You for the pods. For us out here in the world who are not computer savvy it helps. It helps because it make me look into the different things you cast and learn what they are for and how to use them. I have been watching you for a couple years now and have used many of the things you show us.I wasn't aloud to good back to college I had to go to work. It did hurt but I aguested to it. Again keep them coming I look forward to them. For all you out there that had the training and college bare with us who didn't. Thanks

    As a projectmanager I have used revision history extensively for the past few years. My preferred Drive functionality. I do have the apps on my phone, but this is pure for review. I have them also on my iPad where I can do some basic editing.

    @jtstevenson81 6 років тому +8

    My favorite Google Drive feature is the ability to share links to your files for anyone to see. That saves SO MUCH trouble. If I create a video, rather than having to send it as a file in an email and wait FOREVER while it attaches to an email, I can create a link out of it from Google Drive and just send people to that. I use that feature constantly.

    For google docs sync so you can use off line, google only syncs google docs, google spreadsheets, google whatever etc not ALL your GDrive files, so if you have say pictures or videos in your GDrive these will ALSO show in the indicator of how much space your GDrive files are using in the GDrive cloud storage but these will not be sync'd to your local drive so dottotech was a little wrong there I think.. most google docs etc will use up very little local hard drive space - it is videos that take up the vast majority of storage these days, followed by photos... text takes up almost no storage when we are talking about gigabytes! btw I am a fan of dottotech, he's got some really clear well informed and very useful videos - I find I always learn something from them.

I am wondering more about your #4, “Publishing to the Web”. Do you have links to other tutorials for this, specifically? I currently pay for webpage hosting and a website (multiple actually) but am always looking for new methods and modes, especially if they save me time and money! Again, thank you so much! Great job on the presentation! You have a great look to your videos and excellent oration! Much appreciated to find informative and smooth-talking tech tutorials!
