Now You Can Edit Google Spreadsheets On Android and iPhones

http://www.techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/mobile-spreadshseet.jpgGoogle Spreadsheets can now be edited on Android mobile phones and iPhones. Up until now, all Google Docs (http://docs.google.com/) (online docs, spreadsheets, and presentations) could only be viewed on mobile phones. Editable spreadsheets work inside the mobile browser, which for both Android and iPhone is based on Webkit (http://webkit.org/). Jonathan Rochelle, the senior product manager in charge of Google Spreadsheets, showed me the app on his Android G1 a couple weeks ago. As he added rows, edited, sorted, and filtered on his phone, the changes would automatically be reflected in the same spreadsheet on his desktop. (I took a photo of him doing this—with my iPhone, naturally). Each row can be edited by clicking on an "edit" link, and columns can be sorted via a box at the top of each one which then pops open an overlay screen that allows you to select each name or other variable you want to view in that column.
