Google Spreadsheets
Filed in archive News on June 7, 2006
Google Spreadsheets has launched, although it's a limited test. Currently google doesn't give accounts to everyone. The Specs are not too different from other products in this category such as ZohoSheet besides one thing :Edit with others in real time:
Multiple people can edit or view your spreadsheet at the same time as you - their names will appear in an on-screen chat window.
It looks like the office is moving to the web. If this trend continues we can soon all work from home, as far as I am concerned....
Take the tour !

Google spreadsheets are a GREAT idea. Online apps, such as writely.com allow increased portability between users and computers, plus online storage and security.

It has a quite differentiating feature called real-time-update, which is now shared by google and numbler only. Moreover, you're allowed to address your
spreadsheet with a human readable url like: http://www.editgrid.com/tnc/pkchan/EditGrid_v._Google')" rel="nofollow">http://www.editgrid.com/tnc/pkchan/EditGrid_v._Google">http://www.edit
grid.com/tnc/pkchan/EditGrid_v._Google
, and if you append ".xls" to the end of the url, you'll get the exported version immediately. Quite distinctive.
So you may wish to mention this one also!
