Google Docs & Google Drive
Today I worked on a project trying to understand the relationship between Google Docs and Google Drive.
Here's the way I see it.
- Google Docs is an application where you can create and save documents.
- Google Drive is where files created in the various Google applications are stored.
Files stored in Google Drive count against your allocated "free" storage.
Creating folders in Google Drive can be a big help later on when you need to find a file. There are several ways to create folders and to move files into folders.
If you also use Google Sites you can create a special folder in Google Drive that will be accessible in Google Sites. That is to say, files stored in the special folder can be viewed via Google Sites in a Folder page that you create on Google Sites.
