= Agenda = toc **Date:** Friday, February 10, 2012 **Topic:** Google Forms and Google Chromebook App Marketplace **Link to this page**: http://oetmanhattan.wikispaces.com/Google+PD Because of it’s speed, low cost, ease in maintentance, and functionality as a great production device, Google Chromebooks are the device I recommend for primary use by students and professionals. > Double-click any word to view its definition in a small pop-up bubble. View the complete definition of any word or phrase using the toolbar dictionary. > Scratchpad lets you take notes while you browse, and syncs notes to Google Docs. Notes are found in your "Scratchpad" folder in Google Docs. Works fully offline, so you can take notes even when you aren't connected. ||
