Contacts

Contacts are also part of the GAFE domain; because it's all stored online, you can access your contacts from any Internet-connected computer. And because it's a Google product, once you're logged in to your Chrome account, you will automatically sign in to Contacts when you visit their web site (contacts.google.com) within Chrome; if you're not signed in already, you will be asked to sign in to the Holmdel GAFE domain.

• How to get to them - click "Contacts" in the black Google bar at the top of your Gmail screen
• How to add a new contact - in "Contacts", click on the little person-with-a-plus-sign button
• How to create a new distribution group - in the left side pane, click "New Group..."; give the group a name; search for a person to add to your group in the search bar toward the top of the window; once you've chosen your contact, click the "Groups" button (the multi-headed person button) and select the group to which you'd like to add the contact.
• "Crash Course" "notes" on Gmail & Contacts

**Any contact you have set up in Google is available to you when sharing files in Docs; so if you set up a distribution list, it will allow you to share a file with multiple users at once.

Here are some notes on how to create contacts and add contacts to distribution lists. Use the scroll bar on the side of the notes pane to scroll up or down to browse the notes.
