Google Docs is the latest and greatest word processor to date. It consists of the most used applications such as a word processor, a spreadsheet program and a presentation program.

One of the major differences is that a few people can easily access the file at the exact same time, edit the file, sort of like an E-conference. Google Docs is used 4.4 million times in september of 2008. Originally google docs existed as a beta project called writley. But of course being the emporer of the internet world and soon the world, took over the samll company and it became google docs.

The small company named upstartle which was made up of 4 employees was taken over by the world super power google. Upstartle which was working on writley then started to edit the program to conform to the demands of google. And since the release of google docs in late 2006, the online word processor has become an invaluable resources for companies big, small and even for people who need a free word processor and be able to store documents online.

Recently my English teacher gave us a project, with the help of google docs it made it possible for me and my partner to be able to view the documents by using thw world wide web. Not only could you look at the documents, they could also be edited in real time.

Here is a simple video on how to access google docs so you can use all of its wonderful features.
