I like the whole "web-based" office approach...it works for me. And for those who want a more "word processor" feel, Buzzword (acquired by Adobe recently) is absolutely wonderful.<BR/><BR/>I didn't mention any of the online tools because most of them are not FOSS. Also, those "Web2.0" tools require, well, access to the internet and not all schools are wired for that.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the reminder and I'll probably do a show on the Web2.0 tools in the future.<BR/><BR/>Peace.vergil66http://www.blogger.com/profile/17435807743833073580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524990317254975882.post-28384595181712576902008-04-11T15:29:00.000-04:002008-04-11T15:29:00.000-04:00What's your take on GoogleDocs? I find it to be fairly useful (it's really three programs), and the word processor is pretty good, although more complex formatting isn't possible. The collaboration aspect of it are very cool though. I worked on website copy with a friend of mine over the phone, and we were able to "watch" each other make changes. And, there's version control built in.Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01599069829905508720noreply@blogger.com
