Does Anybody Need A Gmail Invite?

Google Docs & Spreadsheets

Today, Google has announced Google Docs (Writely in a Google wrap and Spreadsheets for all gmail users.  This is just another item in place for Google to create an online version of Office.  For those of you who have not tried Writely, the program mimics Word but allows for collaboration within documents (like a wiki).  Users can upload files to work on, which minimizes the need for a local file server (especially when you combine this with the 2.7+GB of storage that gmail allows).

The next thing I’m looking for is the integration into their Google apps for your domain.  We are very happy about the mail and calendar feature and are waiting for Picasa and Docs integration.

If you need a gmail invite send me an email at mrichme at gmail dot com and I will send you the invite.

    thought it was my beta firefox im using so tried IE but still same problem.
    sometimes can reply to a mail but not always, especially if there is an attachment in it…
