CREATING A GMAIL ACCOUNT / MODULE 1

Creating the Gmail Account

THE EASY PART.

The task was given to create a Gmail account, I found this to be easy at first because this was my primary emailing account, so the steps seemed easy and familiar.

Google made it easy for me to create and account by providing a slide show tutorial (which I found interesting). The link below leads to a YouTube video displaying the steps (all credits to the video goes to the maker). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGsSCKwRZSA

CREATING THE CONTACT LIST.

THE CHALLENGING PART!!!!!

After creating the Gmail account the task was given to create a contact list. However first I had to find the contacts tab. this activity started in class but was difficult for me as I was using my android devise to create my contacts. I quickly learned that some of the features of Gmail is not available on the app (this took place after endless attempts by my classmates).

This then spilled over into homework as what seemed as endless research was done. Alas!!!! I found the contacts tab. now the new challenge is to add the email addresses to the contacts was left to be conquered. For this I enabled the help of my classmate. Currently still having a bit of trouble getting it done but let’s see what’s going to happen in my update.
