The Growth of the Web Office

I have started using more of the Google apps, GMail, Docs & Spreadsheets, Notebook and Reader. They pretty much do what they need to. I don't have complicated needs. I could easily see some companies keeping everything online for collaboration purposes and for roaming access.

But let's start at the beginning. Wikipedia currently states that a Web Office "is a set of applications hosted on a server that enable users to create, edit and share information. It is a derivative of the Desktop Office Suite, but has more collaboration capabilities due to its Web nature."
