Think of it this way. When you view the initial Google Docs file viewer, you are merely browsing and searching your documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, etc... When you click on a PDF, it opens in the PDF viewer. When you click on a spreadsheet, it loads the Google Spreadsheets app. When you click on a presentation, it loads the Google Presentations app. So, it's safe to presume that when you click on a photo album, it will load that album in the Picasa Web Albums app.<BR/><BR/>Think of the Google Docs file viewer as "Windows Explorer"... and Picasa Web is the application that loads for photos... Google Spreadsheets is the application that loads for spreadsheets... Google Docs (the app, not the file viewer) is the application that loads for documents... Google Presentations is the application that loads for presentations... etc...<BR/><BR/>I presume that the future might also allow for videos (which won't need a separate app, but will be embedded... but will likely use the Google Videos system for embedding)... and eventually MP3s which might allow for music, but will also likely be used for voicemails (both through Google Talk voicemails and for Grand Central voicemails)...<BR/><BR/>It would be nice if, eventually, file attachments to emails would automatically show up in some sort of "attachments" folder. Then, you'd be able to search through all of your email attachments using Google Docs and play/view them inline (photos through Picasa Web, spreadsheets through Google Spreadsheets, videos through Google Video, etc...)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-74043216167009965262008-08-13T20:08:00.000-07:002008-08-13T20:08:00.000-07:00There is some more additionA form icon is present ...There is some more addition<BR/>A form icon is present in ITEMS by TYPE<BR/>when we are refreshing the docs home page<BR/>that indicates they are going to put some more additions to Google docs<BR/>Google docs rocksSurendra Kumar Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971989109849579563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-78420471974635260182008-08-12T18:27:00.000-07:002008-08-12T18:27:00.000-07:00Alex Du, thanks for the pointer.

The issues with intellectual property become larger with each step into binary file land (text-based docs are easy to detect plagiarism - they are, after all, Google). Pics, music and video (in that order) seem like ever increasing steps into the IP lawsuit morass and they already have YouTube to cause them trouble for video. If they add music, I wonder if they're ready to (a) be sued by the RIAA, or (b) respond to subpoenas from same so the RIAA can sue Google's users?

I was just thinking yesterday that it would be nice if Google Docs had some kind of repository for uploaded images; occasionally I'll upload an image, but then end up using a different one: unless I record the source of the file and a description of the images, there's really no way reuse images previously uploaded. Even if you haven't deleted it, you'd have to open another doc, find the image source and copy it to the other doc. Photo albums should really improve this part of gDocs!Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16731517910662702905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-26094178379962283412008-08-12T04:17:00.001-07:002008-08-12T04:17:00.001-07:00I found another thing:Google to launch an PDF Edit...I found another thing:<BR/>Google to launch an PDF Editor:<BR/>http://i34.tinypic.com/96m2ie.pngAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14241220168879976250noreply@blogger.com
