Interesting site. I remember the rumor that Google was going to do something like it- just a rumor, I guess.
Can't see that the average computer user (or business user) is really ready to just do their critical office work directly on the net. Free e-mail, address books, calendars already exist. Am I missing something critical here??
If KDE, for example, were to suddenly function through Google online and I could sort of synchronize stuff remotely, I would be interested in that. A familiar interface with word processor functions, spreadsheet, and all in Linux-- there is a happy thought.

Agreed. Doubly so with how well the free versions work. I can't see where I'd ever want this in a personal or business environment.

| Everyone's needs and wants are different. I think someone must be using it, if not, why would they keep developing it?

| Actually at Best Buy our e-mail system is entirely web based, while we may do all of our other office stuff on the specific computers our e-mail is a company wide web based thing, so someone is doing something like that.

Thanks for more insight, Ageros. Maybe a small company (spread over a wide area) would use the thing to jump into web-based office without coughing up a lot of money and time to configure their own.
It is an interesting idea, and perhaps the Google-types do have similar things up their sleaves. I think it would be a big boost to "alternative" OS's to have a web-based office suite that could handle M$ apps on an "as needed" basis.
Am writing this from Dillo, so you know I only need occassional help (it won't do a smiley here, ha ha)
