Today I created a new home inventory spreadsheet template that works with both Excel and Google Spreadsheets. The template is not in the Google Docs gallery, but it can be downloaded from my website and then uploaded to Google Docs. It is a pretty basic spreadsheet, but hopefully if you're reading this, it will be a reminder for you to complete your inventory, or update it.
I'm not sure whether I'd want to store all my inventory information in Google Docs or not (it being online and all), and I would certainly advise against sharing/publishing your document. :) But, I guess storing the inventory spreadsheet in Google Docs IS one way of protecting your inventory from a home fire.
New Templates for Google Spreadsheets
Google™ launched their new Google Docs Template Gallery today. The gallery contains over 100 spreadsheet templates, some of which were contributed by Vertex42 and TemplateZone.
Check out the official announcement, "Templates bring Docs to life" on the Google Docs Blog.
These templates are a great resource for Google Docs users. If you are familiar with Excel and Google Spreadsheets, you may realize that not all Excel files can be uploaded as a Google Spreadsheet exactly as-is. I have been working on redesigning many of the Vertex42 templates to make them available to Google Docs users. And now, with their new template gallery, Google has made it extremely easy to search for and create new files from existing templates. Bravo!
Enjoy,
