Have you checked out Google Docs?

| December 7, 2008 | 0 Comments

Google Docs – a useful and free web-based word processor and spreadsheet, which allows you to share and collaborate online. It can also be used for presentations and creating forms.

A big plus with Google Docs is that not only is it searchable, but you can access your documents from any computer. (Do be careful with public computers by the way). Documents can be shared, published as a web page, emailed as an attachment or downloaded in a number of formats, including PDF, Word and OpenOffice. Some documents are useful for webmasters – see the templates section.

Google Docs makes online collaboration easy – no more sending document revisions back and forth, or having to rely on your own servers, IT department or expensive software/web collaboration suites.

Google Docs is a key example of the current trend towards  cloud computing – simply speaking: working on, and storing, data online. Check out Google Docs here.

Check out the Google Docs tour here. And the What’s New page here.

Wikipedia has an article on Google Docs here.

Google Docs has a useful and wide range of templates which you can view here. Includes some Christmas stuff.

Finally, did you know that you can use Google Docs in conjunction with Google Apps for business? I use it everyday and even run my email through it (Google Apps) too.
