    Google Drive & Docs In 30 Minutes

    Google Drive & Docs In 30 Minutes by Ian Lamont My rating: 4 of 5 stars Thank you to the publisher, i30 Media Corp., and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of Google Drive & Docs In 30 Minutes in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. The Gist I never gave much thought to things like online drives and being able to access files across various computers.

While I was reading I kept asking myself how much of the information contained in this book and how much of the techniques that describe coping and healing methods to tackle anxiety that was part of the “old world problems”, so to speak, will…
