Email as a communication tool has been used since the 1960s. Commercial use of email is still relatively young.
Today, email is dominated by one company: Google. Estimates show that over 50% of all people with email use Gmail If you picked up this book, you probably have one or are considering getting one.
For its email service, Gmail is easy enough to use--compose email, send email, done But there's more to Gmail than sending and receiving email. How do you get not-Spam emails to stop showing up as Spam, for example? What on Earth are labels? And how do you get email forwarded to another inbox?
Every tech company wants to be in the business of education. It's a powerful space--there's always a need for people learning.
While companies like Microsoft and Apple have competed in this space with hardware and software, Google took it a step further by creating a cloud-based classroom for teachers. There's hardware (Chromebooks) and software (Google Apps) too, but Google Classroom is a unique environment where teachers can connect in a private space with other teachers, students, and parents.
This short guide will walk you through setting up your first classroom.
How many times do you work on a presentation that you will get absolutely no feedback on and want no help?
Maybe you're the type that likes to whip something up and have no practice or feedback at all? Most of us are the former. Before we stand in front of a group of people, we want to make sure we're as polished as possible.
The problem is PowerPoint wasn't built like that. It was built as a desktop program that one person would use at a time.
Google realized the problem and seized the opportunity when they launched Google Slides over ten years ago.
Google Slides is a cloud-based presentation editor that can replace PowerPoint or Keynote.
If you'd like to get the most out of the software, then let's get started
Note: This book is the Google Slides portion of the larger work: The Ridiculously Simple Guide to Google Apps (G Suite)
Chances are you grew up a Word and Office user. Maybe you were a rebel and committed your herd to OpenOffice, or, dare I say, WordPerfect--but for the majority of people, our lives were loyal to Microsoft.
In 2005, a small little startup named Upstartle developed something unheard of at the time: a web-based word processor called Writely. It pioneered the idea of writing on the "cloud" and changed the way people thought about word processing.
Google noticed the little upstart, and in 2006, they acquired the company. The software was abandoned and turned into what everyone knows today as Google Docs. It disrupted the industry--namely, Microsoft's industry.
Today, Google has a whole suite of productivity apps; from documents to spreadsheets, you can do just about anything from the cloud. Microsoft and Apple have each made big attempts to create cloud-based environments of their own for office productivity, but Google pioneered the idea and its collaborative, online environment make it hard to beat. It's become so feature-rich that many businesses are finding it to be the preferred way to conduct business.
If you are thinking about making the switch to Google, or have already made the switch but want to make sure you are using it correctly, then this guide will walk you through it. It will show you all the basic features to make sure you can get up and running as quickly as possible. It covers Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Sheets, and Google Forms.
For 40-some-odd years, the world of spreadsheets has been ruled by one king: Microsoft Excel. Sure, there were far away challengers that tried to overtake the beast--I'm looking at you, Lotus 1-2-3--but none have come close to dethroning the powerful tool...until Google Sheets.
So what is Google Sheets? It's a cloud-based spreadsheet. Think Excel, but online. "But Excel is online," you say. Yes But Google was there first, and really has the advantage over Excel in this arena. It's quicker and easier to use for collaboration.
Google Sheets is also free; Excel has monthly/yearly subscriptions.

I was in a Startup Accelerator (which is a business program for startups, which usually ends with you pitching your idea to investors), and pivoted very early in the program. Problem was, I was neither a coder nor designer. I was just a guy with an idea for a business.
The idea of sitting in front of an investor--many whom likely wouldn't be the most tech-savvy people--and trying to explain the idea was daunting.
In writing, there's an old phrase: show, don't tell. But how do you show something when you have literally hours before meeting with someone who could potentially give you the funds you need to succeed?
In a word: Sketch
Sketch gave me the ability to quickly mockup my idea so that when I met with investors and advisors, I wasn't telling--I was showing them. And they were impressed. It clicked with them more than words could. Many believed that what they were seeing was already done and working.
If you are a non-coder, non-designer like me, then is book will give you the foundation you need to create your software or app.
You're a young company. You have an idea. You have a dream. Your pitch deck can make or break you As someone who has successfully raised capital from a multi-billion dollar corporation, you can trust me when I tell you this: your pitch deck is not something you want to mess around with. A huge percent of the time you invest in putting your business together should be spent on your pitch.
My experience with pitching came as part of a startup accelerator. In the program, seven teams went through an intensive business bootcamp where we fine-tuned our businesses and talked to investors. At the end of the program, you pitched your business and hoped someone would make you an offer to invest in your company.
There were great companies in the program. In my opinion, all were worthy of an investment. But you know how many got it? Just my team.
There's a number of things that went into this, and everything wasn't completely centered around the pitch. But the pitch played a big part of it.
So how do you create a pitch-perfect pitch? Let's get started
