Google Docs Updated With Plethora of Features

If you have a computer, chances are likely that you use a word processor in one form or another. Whether you use Microsoft Word, or even try to find your way around Apple’s Pages, there’s an option for you. Even in the freeware area, if you like to download things. But one of the better options out there is Google’s Docs, the free service from Google. Though, since its inception, many people said that it’s missing a few features that prevent hardcore users from actually ticking to it, or using it on a normal day-to-day basis. Looks like all of that is about to change though with Google revamping their software.



As always, Google has pinned an informative video to their announcement, which you can see above. Of the new features for the word processing unit of Docs, you can expect a margin ruler, a new system for implementing numbered and bulleted lists, real time collaboration with up to 50 people, tab-stops, and comments. As for Spreadsheets, you’ll get the option to edit cells from the formula bar, the ability to drag-and-drop columns, along with an auto fill for good measure. There’s a lot more and if you are a fan of Google Docs, then you’ll definitely need to check out the alterations that Google has implemented.
