You can now rotate the text in a cell in Sheets (Format > Text rotation). This is especially useful when you need to fit long header names into thin columns, or when you simply want to fit more text on a single screen.

Link to cell ranges in Google Sheets

Link to cell ranges in Google Sheets

Because it can be difficult to navigate large and complex spreadsheets,  you now have the ability to link to specific cell ranges in Google Sheets. With this new functionality, you can create a "table of contents" for your spreadsheet, direct others to specific content within your sheet, and retain links to cells when you import spreadsheets to other applications.

Go to "Insert link" > "Select a range of cells to link" and type or highlight the desired range.
