Not only is viewing files in your browser far more secure than downloading and opening them locally, but it also saves time and doesn't clutter up your hard-drive with unwanted files...Today we're excited to launch support for 12 new file types."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//wpt/auto/1298344220.usr14226.png" /></em></p><p>I've never had occasion to use Google Docs - now I'm curious enough to try it out, especially with the new support for PSD and AI files. Including in today's update to Docs is compatibility with:</p><ul><li>Microsoft Excel (.XLS and .XLSX)</li><li>Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 / 2010 (.PPTX)</li><li>Apple Pages (.PAGES)</li><li>Adobe Illustrator (.AI)</li><li>Adobe Photoshop (.PSD)</li><li>Autodesk AutoCad (.DXF)</li><li>Scalable Vector Graphics (.SVG)</li><li>PostScript (.EPS, .PS)</li><li>TrueType (.TTF)</li><li>XML Paper Specification (.XPS)</li></ul><p>That's a pretty strong line-up to add to the file formats already supported.</p>
