The TODAY and NOW functions in Google Sheets are useful for keeping track of dates and times in your spreadsheets.

The TODAY function returns the current date in your local time zone, while the NOW function returns the current date and time.

To use the TODAY function, simply type '=TODAY()' in the cell where you want the date to appear. The date will automatically update each day.

To use the NOW function, type '=NOW()' in the cell where you want the date and time to appear. The date and time will update every time the sheet is refreshed.

Both functions can be used in formulas and combined with other functions to perform calculations based on the current date and time.
