Google Spreadsheets
Categories
First, let me start by saying that I've been on the road all week talking about Vista and so I'm only just catching up on my mail and blog reading. It's funny though, because it seems that whenever you turn your back in this industry that something big gets announced - and this week it was undoubtedly Google Spreadsheets.
If you are an antagonist like me then you would surely agree that Google would have to be the greatest company in the world to work for because of the way that they can get under the skin of Microsoft simply by announcing some half-baked Web 2.0 app. It seems that whenever Google sneezes, the Microsoft community catches a cold - I love it!
Having used spreadsheets as business applications for almost half of my working life I look forward to learning about how Google will entice big business to use their website to process mission critical, highly sensitive, highly confidential company financial data.
Whilst this is an interesting web application I can't help but think that the advertising guru's at Google must be sitting back having a real good laugh over all this fuss that this has caused right now.
