I have been using Google Docs for the better part of a year now. Why? I can create documents (word, excel and powerpoint look-alikes) anywhere and google saves these for me for easy retrival from anywhere. Plus, it is free, and there is no need to update my computer with seemingly never ending software changes.
Using the word document interface is very easy. It is just like using Microsoft’s Word program–you just use your browser to do it. You can also easily share it with co-authors who have a Gmail account.
I am waiting for Microsoft to come out with their own model of this, but that would necessitate them cannabalizing their very profitable Office suite.
