Week 5 -- Web Office Tools -- Google Docs

I was able to create a document, a spreadsheet, and a presentation in Google Docs with not too much difficulty. I sent a copy of the presentation to two of my friends with an option for them to view it, but not add to it.

I would like to try the Zoho Web-based Office Suite some time, also the Webex WebOffice. I think I would have some problems with the Microsoft Office live, as the review indicated. Sometimes, I do not find Microsoft products to be all that intuitive.

As to the question: "Is this the future of all software products?". I would have to answer "Yes, I think so". To tie all forms of document creation together and allow multiple collaborators to contribute is a great thing. Just about anything can be published on the Web that way.
