Google Spreadsheets now lets users create functions that continuously query Google.com for information, like pulling real-time stock quotes from a company's stock symbol. Users can also complete lists using Google Sets. For example, if you know the first ten states in the US, Google Spreadsheets will help you fill in the other 40 states. Google Spreadsheets also now supports new text formats, like strikethrough.
