Google Docs

I wish we had Google Docs when I was in high school and college. How easy it would have been to finish those arduous group projects!

In the professional world, I can also see many applications. In my past jobs, I could have sent out press releases and radio copy to all the managers for proofing and revisions. We could have created one spreadsheet to track statewide revenue and allowed each region's manager to update the information. Great!

We could use this tool in our libraries to maintain staff or community calendars. Our supervisors could send us all Google Docs to read and return in place of paper memos that circulate.

This is one of the coolest 23 Things I've seen.
