Now you can access your Google Drive documents directly from Microsoft Office

If you store your files on Google Drive but use Microsoft Office to get work done, here is some good news: the search giant has launched a new plug-in that lets you access your Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents stored in the company's cloud storage service directly from within Microsoft's apps.

In addition, you can also save a locally-stored document, spreadsheet, or presentation to Drive, directly from the Office apps (see image below).

"With this plug-in, you can use the apps you’re already comfortable with, while benefitting from the security and convenience of Google Drive," the Mountain View, California-based company said in a blog post. It's worth mentioning that the plug-in is currently only available for Office for Windows.
