Welcome to InstantGoogle Drive Starter . This book has been especially created to provide you with all the information that you need to get up to speed with Google Drive, a web-based application that allows you to store, edit, and share your files online using the Internet.

This book is broken down into the following sections:
So, what is Google Drive? : Learn about cloud-based storage, how to access your files from anywhere, and why it's so much more convenient than being tied down to using files on just one computer.
The Google Drive user interface : Get a high-level overview of all the pieces of the Google Drive user interface. Learn about the files list, Navigation panel, toolbars, search bar, and more.
Quick start creating documents and uploading files : Learn how to create new documents, spreadsheets, and presentations using the built-in programs that come with Google Drive, and how to upload files from your hard drive directly into Google Drive.
Top 7 features you need to know about : Learn how to perform tasks with the most important features of Google Drive. By the end of this section you will be able to organize your files, search and filter files, share files with other people, discover and use add-on programs, automatically keep files in sync with your hard drive, and use Google Drive on your phone or tablet computer.
People and places you should get to know : Discover the community around Google Drive. This section provides you with many useful links to the project page and forums, as well as a number of helpful articles, tutorials, blogs, and Google+ pages for Google Drive.
Google Drive is a place where you can safely store your files online and access them from anywhere. When you use Google Drive, your files are stored remotely on the Web instead of your computer's hard drive. This is the main idea behind "cloud computing".
Once your files are online and "in the cloud", you can access and edit them from wherever you are using any standard web browser. You can even use your smartphone or tablet computer to access your files on the go. You can also share your files with people that you choose, making it easier than ever to collaborate with others and get stuff done.
