Short description
There are no uninteresting facts; only uninterested people. View and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files with Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides
Full summary

An extension that is aptly named - it will provide you with facts, nothing else. Fascinating facts from all areas of human knowledge, a new one each day, guaranteed to educate, amuse and inspire office conversations.

If you are looking for mere factoids or random statistics, this is not for you.

Upon installation, the extension will add a small browser button. Clicking it will produce your daily fact. It will never offer its knowledge unless you click the button.

You can click the button as often as you like, but a new fact will only appear overnight. Each day has its own fact, like a calendar.

View and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files -- without needing Office installed on your computer.

Once the extension is installed, Office files that you drag into Chrome, open in Gmail, Google Drive, and more, will be opened in Docs, Sheets, and Slides for viewing and editing.

You can save each file back to its original Office format, or convert it to Docs, Sheets, or Slides to unlock more features, like inviting others to edit with you, commenting, chat, and more.

Please note that Office files cannot be edited in the classic version of Drive. The new Google Drive is gradually rolling out to all users via the Settings menu. If you don't see the option to try the new look, check back again shortly. Learn more here: https://support.google.com/drive/?p=new_drive.
