Following hot on the heels of their acquisition of the video sharing site YouTube, Google’s quest for world (wide web) domination continues. I noticed today for the first time that my Writely account at http://www.writely.com now redirects to http://docs.google.com - ‘Google Docs and Spreadsheets’, complete with lots of new features. Import and export features are very strong. So far using office type software online is working for me, although I still find myself opening Microsoft Word out of sheer force of habit :(

    I’m now using Google Documents for a group project at university, where we’re composing a survey on healthy living, and the relationship between this behaviour and public health campaigns.

    I will let you know how it goes - there could be lessons there which Spoken Word could disseminate.
