Thing 6: Creating & Editing Docs

For this thing, I decided to play around with Quickoffice.  I don't have a tablet, so I was relegated to exploring this app on my phone.  Using this app also gave me my first experience taking advantage of my GoogleDrive account.

I've not really used my iPhone to create any sizeable documents... only short notes like a shopping list or a reminder.  In my limited use of Quickoffice so far, I've been impressed with its ability to import and edit Microsoft Office documents.  The documents are easily navigated and the manipulation tools are substantial.  However, it just so difficult to add large amounts of text on small phone screen - at least it is for me.  I see it more as a nice way to access documents I might need, such as some speaking notes and slides for a presentation, but I just don't see myself creating a lot of documents inside the app.

Still, even just as a repository, I think the app does have some usefulness and I will likely keep it on my phone.
