Get a Taste on What’s New About Google Docs
Google Docs is a very helpful web application that lets you create, share, and collaborate on documents online. Today, Google Docs just got better with revamped editors for documents, spreadsheets, and drawings for better collaboration producing richer document and increase speed.
What’s new with Google Docs? It now has improved import fidelity making it easier to move your documents into the cloud. You will find tab stops, a ruler to control margins in a document, and improved image layout within documents. You can easily add comments, reply or move comments around in a document with Docs comment system. Another exciting news is that collaboration now happens in real time. You can see what others are typing, character-by-character. There’s no need to refresh the page or wait to see any changes, thus reducing confusion and saving you time.
You can also edit a cell from the formula bar, ease auto fill, drag and drop columns, and navigate easily between sheets. With these significant speed and performance improvements happening, spreadsheets can load faster and scrolling is seamless. With real time collaborations, sidebar chat, and the ability to see which cell each person is editing, what more can you ask for.
A standalone editor for drawings to Google docs is another great addition. Now, you can chat while you collaborate in real time making charts, diagrams, designs, and other schematics for fun or business use.
Upload and Access Your Files from any Computer with Google Docs
Great news everyone! Google Docs will enable a new feature very soon that can support files up to 250 MB. You don’t have to carry around your flash drive to access or share with other people large key files.
In the next few weeks, Google will be rolling out this new feature, which you can upload, store, organize, and access any file type in Google Docs. I know that sometimes it’s really frustrating to send large files using emails because the attachment limit is so limited. Now, you can use your Google account as a system to conveniently store, organize, and collaborate on all types of information online.
Most users will be happy to have 1 GB of free storage for their non-Google Docs files but, if you need more storage space, you can just purchase for additional storage at a reasonable price of $0.25 per gigabyte per year.
Searching for document files that you have uploaded or shared is not a problem because you can certainly do this just like what you have been doing with your Google documents, spreadsheets, presentation, and PDFs. Common file types will be viewable in the Google Docs viewer.
Can’t wait to check out the new and improved Google Docs? Well, you just have to wait for a couple of weeks for the bubble notification to arrive when you sign in to Google Docs to be able to try and give feedbacks.
