Google Docs Adds Over 300 New Templates

Google Docs Templates

Google Docs recently added over 300 templates for a variety of business documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Need templates for a calendar, a letter, a resume, or even Avery-compatible labels? You’re good to go.

My favorites are in the eclectic “Miscellaneous” section, where you’ll find templates for athletes, parents, wedding or event planners, wine nerds, screenwriters – even “animal guardians”.

Cool new resource and a neat idea. Yet another reason for MS Office to keep an eye on its dwindling lunch.

I’m looking forward to spending some time with these, because I’m a huge GDocs nerd. Can’t wait until you can edit Google Documents via your iPhone. That’s when the game really changes.

I have had nothing but problems with Google Docs, and I have tried to love them so much… big, gaping features holes (e.g. not being able to zoom in spreadsheets) and awful support (I have never had a single successful support experience from Google…they ask to be added as collaborators to the doc I am having problems with and then that’s the last I hear from them even after I follow their instructions to a T). I really wish one of the other big companies would come out with a Gdocs alternative, if just to make Google clean up their act.
