August has been a really exciting month for everyone of else with the Olympics and we too, are doing our best to bring some excitement to our users. We have made some large scale improvements and added some much requested features in our latest August release.

Updated backend
We have updated our spreadsheet engine. This include new features, enhancements and improvements that were not available in the earlier version.

• Array Formulas
• Named Range
• Support PDF export

Other features
In addition, we are rolling out a few more useful features:

• Cross hair mode - Go to View > Show Crosshair
  
• Vertical alignment - Go to View > Enable Vertical Alignment and it will then appear in the toolbar
  
• Duplicate Sheet
  

Workspace Enhancement
Following the heels of the last month’s release of the new workspace, we have continued to make enhancements to the workspace. There is now a easy access link to Featured Spreadsheets, Inbox and Pagination.

In addition to viewing our featured spreadsheet from our main site, you can now view and copy them from your workspace. The new Inbox view will notify you of all the latest spreadsheet that has been shared to you by your collaborators. With Pagination, your workspace is slightly more organized.

More Data Packs
We have also squeezed several data packs in this release. By utilizing the Google API, you can now get Weather and Patent data in your spreadsheet, as well as adding dictionary functionality in your spreadsheet. There are also data packs which you can use to grab real estate information from Zillow and Trulia.

We’ve got a lot of changes out this month, so be sure to check out our Change Log for a complete list and details of this month’s release.
