A bright new feature has been added to Google Docs. They call it Insert Drawing because, well, you use it to insert a drawing in a Google Doc.
It works in documents, presentations and spreadsheets and is simple enough for the supremely graphics challenged to use (read me). You create art objects within the drawing made up of free hand scribbles, text labels and shapes that can be resized, rotated and adjusted and then further customized.
You can create a drawing by yourself or collaborate with a friend. The tool is found in the Google doc menu, fittingly, under Insert.
For those of you that keep track of such things, Insert Drawings came from an acquisition Google did in 2007 of a startup called Tonic Systems.
They say more features will be added over time which is the Google way.
