Get into the driving seat for Google Drive

So Google Drive, I actually wrote the instructions for this "Thing" which before starting 23 Things I hadn't even heard of. I for one really like this tool, I now have it on my smartphone as an app as I like to save recipes and it's so easy to get access to these whilst cooking, and then through my phone I'm able to have my documents available offline - don't ask me how I did this as I'm not totally sure.

Here's an image of my recipe file on Google Drive, a lot of these recipes I've snipped from the Slimming World page on Facebook and then saved them so I can use them when I'm at home!!



However since starting this and being really pleased with it I have read others post where they were stating it wasn't as good and there are as ever other tools out there which can do the same thing. Even after reading other people's comments I will continue to use this as I really like it. I do a monthly budget and to be able to work on that document wherever I am is really handy rather than saving everything onto a memory stick! However I guess I wouldn't put any confidential items on there - so recipes and pictures of my cats it is...

23 Things Launch

We just had our 23 things launch which we're running at the University of Southampton and it went with a bang with a real good vibe going. I think everyone enjoyed the intro to our 23 things and the nibbles we had seemed to go down a treat too!

We just need to keep this momentum going. I took some fab pictures of the launch and I'll post these on our blog tomorrow (I hope) - I've just got to figure out how to get the pictures off my phone, and sadly I'm quite excited at the thought that I can use Google Drive for this. Google Drive is one of the 23 things we're looking at here at the University of Southampton and it's the one I'm writing instructions for, so I guess it's good to actually use it!
