Google Docs Gets One Step Closer To Online Storage Device !

The new interface of Google Docs rolls out all users by getting one step closer to an online storage service. This “Item By Type” menu replaces “PDFs” with “Files” and suggests the users to upload any type of files.
Moreover, Google Docs has added advanced search options that are already available in Gmail:
* exact phrase matching (“todo list”)
* negative matching (summer -trip)
* disjunctive matching (budget OR invoice)
* built-in labels (is:starred, is:hidden)
* collaborators: to find the documents shared by Michael Robinson, you need to search for: from:michaelr@gmail.com, assuming that’s his email address. The problem is that you need to know the email address, since the operator doesn’t support (partial) names.

Besides, the uploaded files can be edited, previewed online while rest of them are only stored online. If for an example, you can say the PDF files, because, they can’t be edited but they can viewed and shared. At the same time, it will be interesting if you see, how Google drive integrates with other Google services that can store files (Gmail, Picasa Web Albums, YouTube) and to find the free quota limits.
