Review for Google Services

Google company has come a long way especially for users.  I'm impressed by all the services they have provided for everyone. Not only with their e-mail service, but how you can communicate with everyone. I like how I can customize the appearance of my Gmail and how you can create labels to manage your e-mail better. I enjoy the fact I can chat with friends, or video chat while checking my e-mail through Google Talk. I also like how you can call for free within the U.S. through Google Talk. I also like using Google Labs within your e-mail such as the Google map preview anytime there's an address found in it. 

I dislike the fact that you have to pay so much to use the full program of Microsoft Office, but with Google they have their own service as Google Docs. You can basically do everything the same as Microsoft Office, but for free. 
The Google Drive is pretty useful when you want to share a file and  even with a group of people. Using the drive helps save all files just like using the cloud and it's so convenient to just simply sign in anywhere always finding your files in there.  I enjoy the use of sharing a file where you can insert pictures, draw, paint, etc. Then with whoever you're sharing it with, can also edit it too. 

The only concern I have with the services is how sometimes it takes awhile to send emails. I noticed even with one file besides huge files, it can take half a day to send. Lately, I haven't had the problem in the last two months. It has only happened to me a handful of times this summer. From the moment Gmail first came out and getting the invite to use it, I was impressed with the amount of storage it had for your e-mail and it just seemed more convenient using it. It became my permanent e-mail over Hotmail and Yahoo.
