1. The Google Docs document list update: from inbox to file system

    The Google Docs document list had an extreme makeover on January 31st, and some of us are still adjusting.

    As we continue to fumble through what we miss, and coo over what we now adore, a theme emerges:

    • The old document list was like an inbox: The who and when was front and center.
    • The new document list is like a file system: The what is front and center. Thumbnails, grid views, type of file is emphasized.
