Writely

It seems Google now has a new online program called writely, not surprisingly found on writely.com. The only thing that i would like is as you type spell checking. However with web apps that is not very realistic. One thing that is great is that it auto saves whenever you idle for a moment and every so often as well. This will be great. While microsoft's Office Live is moving towards online storage of files, if editing or creating online is not added it will loose the war (although momentum will carry it through many battles to come.)

If you haven't noticed I use alot of google stuff. This website is powered by blogger even. Other google stuff i use: Gmail, Google calendar, Picasa, Writely and a few more. As long as they stick to their Motto: Don't Be Evil (or even if they stay less evil) i will stick with them, at least when it comes to PCs.

Update

It has been a long time since i had the chance to post anything so i thought I would add a quick entry. I am all vacationed out as my personal vacation then family vacation then extended family vacation ran into eachother with just a coupla weeks between. And a bit of acid reflux (which i had never had, and suggest it should be avoided) made one of those weeks nearly unbearable. However it has been fun, Long beach/Disneyland, then San Diego, and finally Washington, CA. The picture is not of my vacation. those can be found at flickr.com. This is Yoshi's Island 2 which had me excited even before i saw the WiFi logo on the case. Now i will be picking it up in november for sure. I better start saving as Wii will be getting alot of nintendo stuff the 4th quarter of this year :)
