New Google Apps Script - Limited test available

We're excited to announce a limited test of a new feature which lets people add customization and automation to Google Apps, starting with spreadsheets in Google Docs. We call this feature Google Apps Script.

Google Apps Script provides the ability to automate a variety of spreadsheet actions, such as reading and changing values in cells and ranges, changing formats and formulas, and creating custom functions. It also reaches outside of spreadsheets to allow you to send email or create calendar entries.

You can check out the Google Apps Script overview and watch our example of sending email from Google Spreadsheets. Also, you can get involved in Google Apps Script now by applying to join this limited test phase.
