More Google Docs and Spreadsheet News

Yesterday I pointed to the announcement that presentations are going to be added to . Today, Google announces new features have been added to the Spreadsheet function.

Here are a few of the new spreadsheet features:

  • Charts
  • Named ranges: you can define a name for a range of cells, and use this name in formulas to refer to cells, for example write =sum(expenses) instead of =sum(c12:e17). This helps make calculation logic clearer to write and understand. Check it out under the “Formulas” tab.
  • Cell comments: Attach comments to individual cells, great for additional information or for collaboration on a single cell.
  • Bi-directional text: The ability to properly view and edit text in right-to-left languages like Hebrew. This is very important for our local community here in Israel.
  • A quick way to duplicate a sheet.
  • A new right-click option to search the web for the text in a cell.

    Опять-таки достаточно побочная проблема. Вряд ли она кому-нибудь мешает, мне вот лично как то пофиг :)
