A thumbnail is worth about one hundred words
January 26th, 2010 | Published in Google Docs
Earlier today, we added a new view option to your Documents List: thumbnail view.
While the standard "list view" displays the item title and information like sharing state, the thumbnail view displays small previews of your files. We generate thumbnails for all Google Docs types and most common files (photos, PDFs, etc). You can toggle between the two using new buttons on the top right of the toolbar.
When combined with search by relevance, the thumbnail view makes it really easy to find the file you're looking for.
And for all us spelling-challenged and typo-prone folks, we added spelling correction in search. Never again will you need to wonder how your search for "agedna" (agenda) came up with zero results. :-)
Finally, we recently finished rolling out the upload and store any file feature, so everyone should now be able to upload, store, and share any file in Google Docs. We also increased the maximum file size based on your feedback, so you can now uploads files up to 1 GB in size.
