More features in Google Docs

Looks like adding new features is a way of life at Google. Just seen a flashing message on one of help pages now again they have released some new features. It is really amazing the ease by which they are able to add new features. Just compare this to a PC based application like outlook – you will keep installing packs and not everyone will do. With Google apps everyone is upgraded and they (users) need not make a single click.

Here are new features:

  • Help menu in document toolbar
    Help is really closer now. Google has added a Help menu just to the right of the document Tools menu. Check out especially the “Learn from other Google users” option, which takes you straight to the Google Docs Help Group.

  • Choosing the size for embedded presentations

  • Select multiple objects on a slide
    Now you can select multiple items by holdding the shift key. You can now select multiple objects at once — then move them around, resize them, copy and paste them and more. Learn more.
