    I actually use Google Forms a bit too. My local group runs courses for Beginners etc and I use forms to get feedback from participants to make our course better. We sometimes have to nag a bit via email to get people to respond but they can be anonymous on their comments so I'm sure that helps.

    Lisa, Thank you for sharing your passion about genealogy. I too love learning about ancestors and all of the stories. I had never heard of Google Keep so thank you for that tip.

    I'm in a Mac, I use Google a lot. It has a "google drive" app to download to my Mac. iPhones have the same to launch as an app. I don't use their photo section of "the waffle" (the 9 dots in upper right of google on my Mac). I mainly use "Sheets" (like Excel). I don't necessarily sync to an app on my computer but if you Google It 😂 I'm sure the how to is there.

      As I'm do not have a Mac, it's nice to hear how a Mac user does it. Thanks !

    Is there any major difference between Google Sheets and Excel?

    • @LisaLissonAYMC

      They are very similar to work with. Excel is part of the microsoft office tools which must be purchased. Not everyone has that.

      I use Google sheets, drive and docs on my Mac all the time.

      @@PatriciaColeman-tn3zg Thanks. I’ve never used any of them. I use Pages for my word processing. Don’t know what the drive, docs, or sheets are. I do fine as, but who knows what’s down the road. If I need to send a document out, I just make it a pdf. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

    Google Drive automatically OCRs all files and makes them searchable - I have many thousands of images of German Catholic Church records written in the old script - Google Drive allows me to search these images by Surname, Location, etc - I have photos of local cemeteries, I use Google Drive to search for names, etc on these markers

    Being only a MAC user, I’m not familiar with those you’ve mentioned.

      Google access really has nothing to do with you having a Mac.

    • @LisaLissonAYMC
      @LisaLissonAYMC  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Exactly, it's not a Mac vs PC thing. Access to Google tools is web based and not dependent upon your system.
