How to: Change owner in Google Docs

Quick tip for Beginners.

Google Docs is improving at a steady pace by frequently putting in useful features. One of the latest feature enables you to change the owner of the document. This comes handy when you are working in a group on a document and you have to assign the ownership of the document to some other member. Moreover, Google has made it easily accessible by putting the option in the ‘More actions’ menu.

Change the owner of a document in Google Docs:

» Open Google Docs and select the document whose ownership you want to assign to someone else.

» Click ‘More actions’ > ‘Change Owner’.

» A window appears which makes the whole process even more intuitive. Just type in the name or email in the ‘New owner:’ field. Or you can very well choose from contacts by clicking its link beside.

» Click ‘Change owner’ and you are done. To me, this came in pretty handy recently and thanks to Google for pushing this feature right in time when I actually needed it. Enjoy!
