Google Docs and Spreadsheets updates
This morning our friends over at Google announced some updates to Docs and Spreadsheets. Most of the changes are purely visual with the introduction of new icons and a new layout for the main document list page. The most exciting new feature is the introduction of folders. Until now, Google has been a hard line supporter of the tagging method of organization and has not included folders in any of its apps. It seems they may be giving a nod to the users and bloggers out in the cloud that have long whined for folders in GMail and other apps. I have to say, in the short time that I’ve spent with the new Docs and Spreadsheets, I’m a fan. Finally we have an alternative method of organization to the old “Active Documents” hoo-ha that came with the old Docs and Spreadsheets app. I do wish that Google could give us the best of both worlds, folders for organization and tags for searching, but I’m not here to complain or make demands. Overall, thumbs up to this most recent update. Keep up the good work, Goog!
