Finding that file in your Google Drive just got a little easier with the addition of a new preview feature. Right-clicking on any file will bring up an option to preview it without needing to open, and you can scroll through other files with arrows imposed on the left and right of your screen. It works with several types of file including videos, text, and images, and the previews let you copy text, print, or download the document right away. Google says the feature will roll out over the next few days, and we're seeing it on our own Drives already.
