Hello hello! We've got some cool new features to announce!
So, let's get to it!
- You can now invite mailing lists as collaborators and viewers.
First, and maybe most exciting: It's now possible to share with
mailing lists! Finally! For more on this option, see our help article,
here: http://docs.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=66343&topic=8628
In addition, document owners can now specify whether or not they'd
like their collaborators to have the ability to add more collaborators
and viewers (this option was already available for spreadsheets).
- Save documents as .txt!
Indeed -- you now have the option to save your documents to your local
computer as .txt files. This is available from the "File" menu in the
"Edit" tab of your document.
- Right-to-left text entry for both documents and spreadsheets
For those of you who write in Hebrew, Arabic, Yiddish, or any other
language written and read from right to left, it's now possible to set
your document or spreadsheet to support right-to-left text entry. For
more on this option, see this help article:
http://docs.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=65166&query=right...
- "Share" replaces "Collaborate"
A minor but nice change -- what used to be called the "Collaborate"
tab is now called the "Share" tab. Shorter, sweeter, and more to the
point, we think :)
As always, if you have any comments, complaints, or praise, please let
us know!
Cheers,
Syd and Regina :)
