+Google has added another API to its ever-growing stable of developer tools. The ["Google Documents List Data API"][1] can be used to upload new documents or to grab a list of existing documents from your Google Documents List.
+
+The Documents List Data API builds on the GData framework, but offers some more hooks into the Google Docs and Spreadsheets application. Other improvements include full-text search capabilities for grabbing particular documents.
+
+There's also a separate [Spreadsheets API][2] which offers some impressively fine grained options -- right down to individual spreadsheet cells.
+
+Google offers some code samples for the new API in both Java and Python. The notable absence of PHP -- probably the most popular web-programming language -- seems to indicate that Google seems this as more of a desktop client tool, though at this point the API is too simplistic to build anything really cool like a Microsoft Word or OpenOffice plug-in.
