EPR Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Not sure if this is a good thing, but I like Writely. I don't use it much, but it is a great Web 2.0 app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Doesn't surprise me but with Google and Sun Microsystems and with this, they are deafently onto some sort of free word processor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soypowered Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Looks nifty! I wonder if Google will integrate it into a new service or keep it as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisgeleven Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Writely is basically an online AJAX word processor, with group collaboration features. When I tried it out, I was pleasantly surprised with how solid it was. The dream of an online version of Office/OpenOffice isn't that far away from reality.

quiet_core Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 if you look in the top left corner of the blog there is a home link, or you can simply go to www.writely.com and find out what they are all about. it seems that they are a free online work processing program. however, they are not taking anymore users until they get switched over to google Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 interesting, never heard of it before and the concept sounds a bit scary (writing a long paper in a web browser doesn't sounds safe) and hopefully google will make it available to more people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
