Google Forms

blog_bluebird_share.gifAwesome new feature for Google Docs.

Now you set up a form that users can fill out that will populate a spreadsheet in Google Docs. Instead of sharing a spreadsheet, you can just set up the form and people can enter information that way.

Looks pretty cool. I’m already thinking of a few possibilities that this could be used for.

Do you have any ideas?

    Maybe surveys. With the data already in a spreadsheet it would be easy to then see all of the numbers and have instant charts, etc. even if it did involve exporting out of Google Docs into Excel for real manipulation.

    Surveys are a great idea.

    I also thought of things like registrations, etc. We’ve used Zoho Creator a few times for registrations at church, and this could maybe serve as a more simplified version of the same concept.
