Google Drive is a personal cloud storage service from Google that lets users store and synchronize digital content across computers and many other devices such as smart phones and tablets. Business Review,  Google drive can be very helpful in the world of business. This personal cloud storage service can help make presentation and papers much easier for the user. Google Drive offers a finance page, a written document page, and even a new feature called "Google My Business", these many different features can help your business prosper in many ways. A downfall to the business aspect of Google drive is that there is no app for it so you can not easily access documents from your phone with out using the internet. Another downfall is that incase you ever loose your Gmail password you won't be able to access your drive account because it is all connected through your email account. Social Review, Google drive offers a chat feature that allows you to talk to others and even share documents, presentations, etc. Google Drive also offers a feature called blogger which is used to create blogs where people can communicate with others. Lastly there is a feature called Groups which lets you create groups that can be used to talk about a certain topic or situation that needs discussion. Google drive was not created for social and communication purposes but mainly for work related subjects. News Review, Google Drive offers a feature called News. This feature is a great way to find out daily news. It also has a feature where you can like a topic whether it be science, religion, or even political and this liked topic will then be the majority of news that your feed shows. The news page also shows sports scores and even weather updates in the region that you live in. The only downfall to this news aspect of Google Drive is that there is only one application for it and there isn't any other features in Google Drive that updates you on the daily news.
