Google Spreadsheets

Google spreadsheets are supposed to be launching today and you can take a tour of what they have to offer right here. This online spreadsheet program is compatible with CSV (Comma Separated Values) and XLS file formats. XLS being the microsoft format. Features include:
  • Number change formats
  • Sorting by columns
  • Formulas
  • Uploading your own spreadsheets
  • Keeps your own formulas intact
  • A host of formatting facilities
  • Collaborate online with other users you choose
  • Secure online storage
  • Save and export
Google also have a word processor at www.writely.com Looks like Microsoft have a competitor for their new online Web services - Office Live. What appeals to me is savings on 'office' software and Web accessibility from 'anywhere'. In theory anyway, and subject to any security issues. Interesting times.
