We can embed Excel, too!

Here's an imgur of how to embed an excel spreadsheet into a tool wiki: It's slightly more complicated than using docs but enables you to preserve your formatting from excel (sometimes importing an excel doc to drive can cause wonky formatting). You have to create a Microsoft acct and upload the sheet to their cloud platform, OneDrive. All in all, pretty easy!

Added % tip to imgur-weakness of using this to document

Hey, I added that to the imgur. One weakness of using imgur to document is that then a portion of the documentation becomes more static and not readily editable by any contributor. Benefits probably outweigh cost but just something to be aware of. Daniel

Don't know--perhaps we should add tracking tool prof. changes

Do you have any sense of how easy/difficult it would be to track these changes? Or, alternatively, why the site is set up this way?

Tool and wiki decoupled

Hey there Dorn, Looks like the tool template is still showing up as the farm bike (in the url and on the tool profile itself). I figured that before I also start messing around with fixing this, I might just ask you to sort it out since it seems you already have your brain on it. Thanks, Daniel

How to

I put together a quick how to for embedding google docs into tool profiles or wikis, etc. You may want to click the gear (top right), and view in imgur to better see the screenshots.
