I have used Google Docs and even if it’s far from able compared to what I am used to in Microsoft Office 2007, the online ability and feature makes it so much easier for my day to day usage. I supposed a lot of Microsoft users do appreciate the this online feature and have somehow hoped that Microsoft brings their Office applications real time.
