Some new ways to get stuff done in Google Drive
Wednesday, November 14, 2012
In case you haven’t noticed them already, here are a handful of small updates that will make it easier to find, organize, and view stuff on Drive.
Search by person
: Can't remember the name of a file but know who shared it with you? Now Drive search auto-completes people’s names making it easier to find the stuff you’re looking for.
View Google Earth map files
: You can now open, preview, and interact with Google Earth files (.kml and .kmz) right inside Google Drive on the web.
Create new folders while organizing files
: Now when you select files in your Drive list, in addition to adding them to an existing folder, you can add them directly to a new folder.
Drag and drop folders in Chrome
: If you’re using
Chrome
, you can drag and drop entire folders from your desktop to Drive on the web.
Search includes your trash
: Sometimes files you are looking for accidentally ended up in your trash, so now search results include files there too.
