Why I prefer Microsoft Word over Google Docs!

    Google Docs is very similar to Microsoft word in a couple of ways. Google Docs has the ability to change the font but it doesn't have as many choices as Microsoft word does. I like to have many font choices especially if I am writing a paper because when I stress a certain point I use a different font. Google Docs has the ability to do spell check like Microsoft word does. Google Docs' spell check is different than Microsoft Words spell check because in Microsoft word if you spell the word "the" wrong then it automatically changes it rather than letting you change when you are done.

    Google Docs has a feature where you can check the spelling of another language. In Microsoft word you have to change the language to check the spelling. Google Docs automatically saves your work for you; this is helpful because you don't have to worry about stopping to save your work, it automatically saves it. In Microsoft word you have to click the save button or control + save. Microsoft word offers clip art and word art and Google Docs doesn't offer it; I like this feature especially if I am working on a poster and I want to change the style of the heading.

    Google Docs has its' advantages and disadvantages. The one advantage that Google Docs has is that it automatically saves your work for you. Another advantage is it that it allows you to view your documents everywhere you go. Google Docs also offers language spell check without having to change the language; this is good because if you are typing a paper and you are quoting something from another language you don't have to change the language to check the spelling. One disadvantage to using Google Docs is that in order to access your documents you have to have an internet connection whether it is by computer or on a cell phone. For me the biggest disadvantage is the font; I don't like to be limited in the types of fonts that I can use.

    I personally prefer to use Microsoft word because I am used to the program and I like the program. I like the fonts that are available. I like the features that it offers such as different word art and clip art. These are just a few things that I like about Microsoft word.
