New features for Google Spreadsheets

Every time Google launches (or buys) a cool new product, I'm a little nervous that that's the last thing we'll hear about it., i.e. Google will just leave it to gather dust. That was definitely my fear after the launch of Google Spreadsheets, but I'm happy to report that those fear appear to be unfounded. ZDNet blogger Garett Rogers is reporting that Google has rolled out a new version of Spreadsheets. The change in version numbers is almost so small as to be imperceptible (1.1.4b to 1.1.4d), and this is by no means a large update, but some nice new features have been added. Most useful, perhaps, is the addition of right-click context menus for faster access to cell and row functions. Also new is improved cell formatting, including borders and the ability to copy and paste formatting only. Like I said, nothing huge, but these features will definitely be welcomed by anyone who uses Google Spreadsheets.
