Chrome and Google
What happens when we're logged in?
For that reason I have transitioned to using Google Chrome's browser so I can personalize my internet experience and quickly find and create all sorts of wonderful things ranging from Screencasts to Presentations to Classrooms and Avatars- there's just so much!
Next year, the Chromebooks are hitting elementary schools here in DCS.
What does that mean? A whole lot of Chrome time.
So get ahead of the game and start preparing for the new arrival of devices by learning all the things you can do with Chrome and your Google Account. They kind of go hand in hand... ;)
Are you logged into Chrome?
A sure sign that you're logged into Chrome is if you look in the top right corner and see your name in the browser (pictured above). Because I am logged in, all of my bookmarks and apps and extensions are available within my browser- including my browsing history!
That means if I use ANY computer, I would still have this information once I log into Chrome and I like that sense of security. :)
Click the little Hamburger
Settings, please.
Under "Sign in"
When you log into Chrome, you are automatically signed into Google

So, you can be logged into Google and not logged into Chrome- but not the other way around!
