27. Google Accounts
• A Google account is any email address connected to
Google service, such as blogger or shared docs. It does
not have to be a gmail address. It is simply an account
with a password that you select. This will allow you to
access Google resources such as shared documents.
• If you are invited to share resources, you must use the
email address where you received the invitation to set
up your account. If you prefer to use a separate email
address, you must ask the person who invited you to
share their content to your other email address.

28. Google Accounts
• If you are not sure whether you have a Google
account tied to your email address, try the
below.
• Go to https://accounts.google.com and you’ll
see the next screen.
• Below the sign in button, click “can’t access
your account?”
28
30. Google Accounts
• Choose the option “I don’t know my password”, enter
your email address, and continue. If you already have
a Google account tied to the email address where you
received the invitation, you will receive a password
reminder in your inbox so you can reset your password
and you can stop here.
• If you do not have a Google account with the email
address where you received the invitation, you’ll see
the message “No account found with that email
address” and will need to go to the next step.

If you don’t have an account with the email address
where you received the invitation, you’ll need to
create a new Google account. (Note: A new account
is not a new email address.)
To create your account, go to
https://accounts.google.com/SignUp and select “I
prefer to use my current email address”

Enter your existing email address in the “Your current email
address” box and continue to fill out the rest of the box. Once
that’s done, you can then connect to shared resources using the
email address where you received the invitation
35. Wrapping Up
• Consider using sites as an internal website for
boards or committees
• At the very least, share docs/drive with
remote groups
• Install analytics. It’s not retroactive
• Sign up for an AdWords account.
• Tell everyone you finally understand Google
accounts…
