Small Biz Tools: Google Docs
What is it?
A paired down version of Microsoft Word (pre-Word 2007) that allows for collaboration and availablity from anywhere with an internet connection.
Why should you use it?
Everyone loses their data at some point. Everyone. Using Google Docs means your most important documents are always backed up. I know I said something similar about SugarSync. But Google Docs will also let you share documents with multiple people so you don’t have to worry about which version you and your colleagues are on. Also, because Google Docs are web based, you don’t have to worry about whether or not everyone is using the same version of Word. And if you’re buying a new computer and have readily available internet access, you may not need to buy Word.
Who can get the most out of it?
Teams sharing info across platforms and versions, anyone collaborating on the same document, people who want their most important data secure.
