A Google version of Evernote looks like it is on the way. I'm excited, since I already live in Google Apps during the day, I would love having all of my notes in Apps too. Currently using Scratchpad (A Chrome Extention) which ties into Drive, but this looks more feature rich.

Excellent FAQs, helps and tutorials for all different Google apps products. The articles for each are very helpful and detailed. There is a separate Google Sites FAQs, etc. too.

This is referring to Apps for business, Ryan. I certainly hope the Google Apps for Education will continue to be free now that many educators and schools are depending on them. If not, there will be some dramatic changes that need to be made.

John Dorn originally shared on G+:   I just tried the Movenote app for the first time and I love it. You can easily take a webcam video of yourself to show and explain documents. The app shows the documents and video side by side. You also have the ability to perform some annotation of your documents during the presentation. Very slick. 

I started this Google Group for participants in my EDT 6801 class through MLC. This group is meant to connect Google users of all kinds in our WELS schools to learn more about how these powerful tools can be used with effective teaching to meet the needs of our students and to preach Christ crucified to a dying world.

Interesting concept for using Google tools to develop online portfolios. Integration with Google apps might be helpful, too.

This document explains how Google docs can be used to help improve writing.
