ComputerWorld reviews Google Docs & Spreadsheets and concludes that what both programs do have in their favor is that hey make it easy to share a document with multiple users. If you need a quick-and-dirty way to collaborate on a plain text document or review a spreadsheet with your colleagues, Docs & Spreadsheets offers a no-nonsense, easy-to-understand interface that makes it a snap. For everyday word processing or calculations, stick with Microsoft Word and Excel or one of the free, run-on-your-own machine options such as OpenOffice.
