Dear Lifehacker, After spending the last several years in the workforce, next year I’m heading off to university for the first time to study graphic design. I’ve already more or less decided to switch from Office to Google Docs for documents, but I’m also looking for the best Android, iPad and Mac apps to help keep me on top of things. Hoping the Lifehacker community can help me out :) Mature Student

What are you going to do when you don't have internet? I didn't believe google docs had an offline component (yet).
Sure does. You need to install the Google Drive application on your Mac/PC but offline works fine after that. Not sure about tablet version though - Drive on my android phone doesn't let me edit docs, only read.
