Google Docs & Spreadsheets

[woolf]

I don't know if this has been posted before or not, but I just noticed the other day that Google has a new "Doc & Spreadsheet" service.

Anyone with a Google Email account, log into that account and check up in the upper left hand corner, and click on the "Doc & Spreadsheet" link.

It's one of those "Internet 2" type applications that gives you an online Word Processor and Spreadsheet. You can use these applications for personal use or to share some or all of your documents with other GMail users.

Since it is on the Internet, you can access these documents from any computer.

Freshbreath, it's like one analyst said,
"The internet is in, Google is the internet, done!"

The operating system they're toying with is the idea that you store everything on their servers and you can access your files from anywhere in the world.
Kinda cool idea, but privacy issue comes into play.
They have your files on their servers. I'm sure they'll put a disclaimer in the EULA (End User Licence Agreement) that it'll be private and for your eyes only.
But with Bush and his croonies taking away more rights from its own citizens and messing up the world, who knows what will be private anymore.

Kinda reaching, but shit, just recently the NSA told the Justice system in the US, that they can't tell them what to do.
Guess what? The Justice system backed off and said "ok".

Cheney & Co., have some whacked out plans for the world...

I use it. I also use the calendar. I also sync it with my HTC3100 (MDA) and my Blackberry 8705
