Teamwork Made Easy – GoogleDocs
GoogleDocs has got to be to be one of the most useful tools Google has released. Besides the fact that you can use GoogleDocs in place of MS Word or iWork Page, and that its free, and that you can use it on- or offline, Google has made team collaboration even easier. If you are emailed a Word file to your Gmail account, Google will recognize it and you have the option of downloading it or converting it to a GoogleDoc. Once it has been converted you can share this file with other GoogleDocs users. The files save often during during collaboration and the effects are effective live. Google also provides a Chat side bar for editors to contribute comments during a group session.
I use this entire system of working during any group project, web based or not. It provides a fast and efficient way for users to update and collaborate on shared documents. Just another service to make life better.
