Google Spreadsheet Added Chart Support

I was missing Charts a lot in Google spreadsheet, a feature that have been added today. Now you are able to create charts easily from Google Spreadsheet with different types Columns, Bars, Lines, Pie, or Scatter with different option in each type. You can add labels : title, horizontal and vertical axis ... Finally you have the choice between selecting data directly from the spreadsheet and hit the Chart button or enter data manually. A chart preview is available before saving, and after save you are always able to edit, delete or save the image (png) for external use. Very simple and neat feature and now I won't need to go back to Excel to create simple charts.

If you need more advanced charts (outside the Google spreadsheet as images), you can also use the free online charting service:

Charts can be created from manually typed data, Google spreadsheets, data linked from url, etc.

Includes basic charts, XY charts, XYZ 3D charts, Gauges, Geographical (mapping / GIS) charts, financial OHLC, and much more.
