Google Docs now allows folder sharing, batch uploading

Google Docs has always been a decent solution for collaborating on individual documents, but users have been frustrated for some time by the lack of support for sharing multiple files at once. Google recently heard their demands - delivered via the Google Docs product ideas page - and added folder sharing. Now you can not only set the same sharing permissions for a whole folder full of docs at once, but also upload multiple files simulataneously.

To organize you docs quickly, there's a new "folders" dialogue at the top of your docs screen. You can check items and then click on "folders" to set which folder they're in, even as a batch. Google also brought back an old favorite feature: "Items Not In Folders," because feedback told them that a lot of people used it for drafts or to queue items to work on.
