[Mobile] Google Docs Mobile Released
Oct 1, 2007 | Category: Google Docs, Google Mobile
Google ha lanciato una versione mobile per consultare i documenti creati con le applicazioni online di Google Documents.
Google Documents Mobile si compone di un box di ricerca e di una lista degli ultimi documenti e delle cartelle: selezionando uno dei documenti è possibile visualizzarne una anteprima in formato html, ad esclusione delle presentazioni che attualmente non sono visualizzabili.
I documenti creati con Google Spreadsheets (i fogli di lavoro) verranno visualizzati a colonne, rendendone possibile la visualizzazione su schermi piccoli.
Naturalmente non è possibile apportare alcuna modifica ai file.
Dobbiamo inserire anche questa novità tra quelle che ruotano tutte attorno ad un fantomatico GPhone?
English Version
Google Docs Mobile went live now, after traces of it were spotted a month ago. It’s a minimalist reformatting of the “Google Office suite” for cellphone display. What you will see is a search box as well as recent documents – word processing, spreadsheets, or presentations – below it. You can also navigate through your different folders in this stripped-down version of Docs (which might make a decent Google gadget, too).
What you specifically can’t do at this point is view every file type. Next to presentations that are listed you’ll see the text “Not available for view.” (The sparse Google help file on the subject says you can view them on the iPhone, though.) However, spreadsheets and word processing documents are listed for mobile view. Opening a text document results in the page being displayed normally. Try to open a spreadsheet, and you are offered to view it as HTML or download it as XLS (Excel).

The HTML view of spreadsheets is a specially formatted display mode, shown above. By default it only lists a single column, but then allows you to click through to the next column or jump straight to a specific cell (if you know its coordinates). You can also list the contents of just a single row, which is then displayed vertically instead of horizontally. As is the case with the word processing docs view, actual editing of content does not seem possible.
