… pointed me to this new short film demonstrating Google docs put together by Lee Lefever et al, the same folks who’ve been building the wonderful CommonCraft series of short films demonstrating the principles of Web 2.0.

Via the same thread, we learn about the new Google Presentation tool, we can only hope it does to PowerPoint what Writely Google Docs did to Word.

I really prefer zoho to google docs. Zoho has docs, spreadsheets and presentations as well, but it also has wikis, database management and much more.

They are also busy working on making their documents on/offline compatible so that people can work on their documents even when they don’t have an internet connection.

What did it do to Word?

Andre – been meaning to check out Zoho, thanks.

Mark – Google Docs has proven itself vastly superior to Word in pretty much every respect, especially for collaboratively written document. I honestly feel sorry still using Word.
