Last week Google released an update for their Spreadsheet web app, and it shows they’re continuing to improve the product. This is a good thing, as I previously wasn’t too impressed.
Now you can right-click on cells and select basic options from a context menu such as cut, copy and paste, and insert and delete rows and columns in a similar fashion to Excel.
Best of all, Google isn’t trying to re-invent the wheel through the way users interact with the spreadsheet. Tables aren’t a new thing and we’re all comfortable with how they work.
Not so good, however, is that I can see the day when I may have to eat my original words – that this thing wouldn’t catch on. If Google keeps this up, it just might.
I will have to check that out… later, b/c my battery is about to die. :)
Yeah it’s getting a lot easier to use… Which to me it means it’s emulating Excel better!
