Google Drive Tutorial - Tips and Extensions

hi Jamie Keat here and today I want to take a look at in Google Drive um a tip and a few extensions you can add on to uh just make your Google Drive experience a little easier so my first

tip is uh is the bookmark tip so if you have a folder that you tend to go to U Back and Forth Lots what you can do is I'm going to use this example one as an example let's say this is the folder and I go inside it all I have to do is hit the uh bookmark up here uh I'm going to hit done and you can see now I have it on my um on my uh on my bookmark menu up here so at any time if I wanted to go to it I could just click uh the menu and it will bring me right to there so it's a little uh shortcut way I find if there's a folder uh that I am going back and forth to uh having the bookmark there just speeds it up now some extensions I

want to show you are um these three uh this one right here and looks the same as the other one beside it but I'll hold my mouse over it says Google Docs quick uh quick create and if I select it you can see it uh links um if I need to go to a quick document it opens it up uh right away without uh logging anything in so I find that's a nice uh handy one to have um just have easy access to create uh my files uh very quickly uh the other one is uh this one I'll just hover over and save to Google Drive Extension I'll put a link to all these drives uh down below uh in the description of this video here but uh how it works is uh so let's say I'm on this uh popular science uh website I can uh when I select this what I can do is U it will actually uh take a take an image of the whole page it goes through and it will save um it just takes a second here and it it's going to save this picture and here it's working on it uh to my Google Drive here it'll just take a second here hopefully it doesn't get hung up all right so I'll close this up here um I'm just going to go to my uh Google drive here and uh you can see right here it took a uh kind of a image of the whole U of the uh web page that I was on but I don't really use it for that as much what I like to do is if I'm looking for a specific picture if I right click on the picture I can um I

can just uh save the image right to uh my Google Drive so that's kind of how I like to use a little bit more but if you like to save your web sites uh um like the previous way you can go ahead and do that so I'll just go to my Google Drive and you can see um there's the image of uh that I just signed of as that I just saved of Einstein the uh third extension what I like is um it's called Uh omnid drive and I have it added in so if I type the word uh Drive uh and then give it a space uh now I can search my entire drive without going into it so if I was looking for uh let's say uh something report cards and uh then what you notice what will happen it brings me right to uh my uh folder of report cards or anything that has report cards uh written into it so those are three little extensions and a tip that I would that I use for uh Google Drive and I'd recommend uh to you too so if you like what you see please subscribe to my channel uh so you can get further updates on Google Drive
