Google Docs to get Audio Playback, Playlists and Preview Pane
Better Service for Storing Media Content
Some recently discovered code in Google Docs suggests that add an audio player with playlist management will be added to the service, as well as a preview pane that will let users quickly preview files without opening them. The code has been posted on Google Operating System, and it contains references to previewpane, mediapreview-audioplayer, and addtomediaqueue.
You'll be able to create playlists
From the looks of it, the preview pane will be able to play audio files, as well as previewing your text documents and spreadsheets.
The code also refers to "collections," which will allow you to create a group files from multiple folders. Even more exciting, the "open with" option is the first big step toward third-party apps in Google Docs. There's no ETA for the new and improved Google Docs, but it appears that it's already being used internally at Google, so we may not have to wait long.
