Google Docs users are familiar with the file sharing feature of Google Docs and now Google includes a new tweak for its users to collaborate through the shared folders. The shared folder option was the most requested feature by Google Docs users and now it is activated.

Shared folder feature enables users to share the entire contents of a folder with others including the documents and sub folders of that folder. A Google Docs user reserves the rights either he wants to share folder or not and could adjust settings for an individual document or folder.

As Google Says:
“Once you’ve shared a folder, all of the items in the folder will be accessible to the group. You can also add someone to an existing shared folder to give them access to all of the folder’s content. Likewise, each item you add to the folder will be automatically shared. Just like with sharing documents, you can specify edit and view-only access for a folder.”
The shared folder option is live now for every Google Docs user.
