We saw how you can upload files at Google Drive using various methods including Manual Uploading from website using Google Chrome and other browsers, Drag n Drop methodusing Google Drive software and we also discussed how things gets different and a bit difficult when you use any other browser than Google Chrome.
 
Note: I have noticed that any service which belongs to Google works perfectly if you use Google Chrome and that's why I recommend Google Chrome web browser to everyone (well there are many other reasons as well)
 
Once you are done with the uploading of files, the first thing which you have to do is to view them. Google Drive supports number of file formats which you can view them online without even installing any kind of software.
