Google Docs is an online version of Microsoft Office offered for FREE online. As I said in an earlier post about Open Source Software, not everyone can afford computer software. But Google Docs supplies you with the ability to use a word processing, spread sheet, powerpoint presentation and form/document creator for free online. It also allows you to share the documents with other users online and let them edit it whenever they please because the saved document is always online. The only disadvantage is if you don't have internet...but having a home computer without internet is almost pointless (with a few exceptions).
In my field communicating and collaborating ideas is very key. It takes more than one person to make sure stories flow, or any other sort of project you could be working on. So the collaboration factor is what makes Google Docs useful in almost any field.
