The Best Way To Do Work OnlineA Web-based office suite that bests Google and Microsoft.
Posted Friday, March 9, 2007, at 4:50 PM ETIn January, Paul Boutin wrote about four of his favorite Google applications. Boutin also called Microsoft Office 2007 "the most annoying computer upgrade since Windows 95" and argued that the Google PC is coming soon, it will be great, and you'll hate it.
Of course, a well-done Microsoft entrant would still be the most logical route for Office users who want to take their work online.

Thankfully, Zoho is more than good enough until the real thing comes along.
