Chromebooks are not that much fun if you are offline. But if you prepare for it, you are going to have a nice time with your Chromebook even without an internet connection.

You can enable offline access to Google Docs from your Chromebook. You need to be connected to the internet to set this up. Once ready, you can view and edit your Docs without internet connection and view your Google Spreadsheets as well.

You will be surprised to see how easy it is to enable offline access on Google docs from your Chromebook. All you have to do is, access Google Docs while you are connected and it will automatically start syncing your docs for offline access.  To open Google docs, press the Search key and from the menu, click Google Drive.

To disable offline access to Google Docs, click the Gear icon on the top right corner and select Stop Using Offline Docs.
