I cannot say enough about your teaching skills. So rarely do you find an individual who is a master at a topic able to teach at the kindergartner level. Thank you.

[junktube]

His videos feel like they’re the most productive to watch. Great stuff.

[sheilaevans]

I’ve used google for a long time, but I appreciate the refresher. Thank you

[peteroker]

Great Video Steve. Really look forward to the remaining four videos of this series!

[lydialauro]

OMG!!! You are the best teacher for solving problems... I thank you so much for your knowledge, and step by step information..

[snh_lname]

Thank you for a clear and coherent intro. I look forward to the rest of the series. Being a complete Apple house, this will be a good way to learn if the Google apps are more useful to to than the native Apple apps.

I like to consider myself an old hand at Google and its ecosystem and it's easy to succumb to hubris and feel like I have nothing new to learn. And, indeed, this video did not cover new ground for me, but it is a refreshing review of how well-laid out Google is and reminds me of some aspects that I haven't considered in some time. This is an excellent introduction (and refresher course) to all things Google. Great job, Mr. Dotto! I look forward to the upcoming videos in this series.

A fine introduction. I use Gmail but I long to learn more about the opportunities the system offers. This series should be long and very useful.
Thanks for the great work.

OMG. I remember watching your show on "Access TV" in the early 90's ?

[commtom]

Thank you Steve for presenting the info simply. I’ve been using Google and it’s various apps for years but always seemed to get lost in its ecosystem.

[khillable]

Thanks, Steve for a very informative video on Google. Can't wait for the rest of your videos on this subject.

Hello Steve
Ohhh my I remember watching your program on TV every weekend and then you disappeared, I was always wondering what happened to you???
Anyways I'm so glad I came across your youtube channel completely by accident and boy did you surprise me with your new?? appearance. LOL
I still remember your clean shaved appearance and today I just was shocked but in a good way.
very good to see you again and right away subscribed to your channel so I won't loose you again, thank you very much and take care

Great content. What are the benefits of signing up into different sites using my Google account?

[jeffr]

I've recently switch to Google for everything I can. I really appreciate your videos

[KarenLMagno]

Great video. Looking forward to learning more about the Accounts settings...

New subscriber and new fan here. I see part of a dog in the background; you should introduce him/her!

[johnblackledge]

Thanks for a great video, Steve. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.
I realised when watching that I have become a Google convert.
Slowly I have moved over and left Windows behind.
I use Google Drive with Docs (instead of Word/Excel, because they are just as good and easier to use), Gmail (thanks, Steve for your video on labels, so that I can emulate Outlook's folders), Google Maps (of course), Calendar synced across 3 devices, and Drive for secure storage.
I can't believe that they give this stuff away for free!
I keep expecting to wake up and find it was all a dream, and I'm still in the nightmare of fighting with Windows.
Thanks you, Steve, for your excellent tutorials which convinced me to move all of my work (even the new novel I'm writing) over to Google Docs and Apps.
Finally (personal opinion), Google - unlike MS and Apple - actually appear to be listening to what people need and want.
