I have created an account on Google Docs. I imported a spreadsheet that I use to create lunch schedules for our administrative team. We alternate duties in the cafeteria by teams. I set up a schedule in excel and send it to each member of our team. They look for mistakes that I might make and send it back to me. I have always emailed it in the past. This time I tried Google Docs. It worked. Each member got the invite to review and correct right on the darn Internet. For the first time in many attempts it appears I made no mistakes.
I didn't really like that the amount of fonts were limited but that's my anal retentiveness at work. I like my fonts and they were only 6 or 7 to choose from. Haven't tried a document yet. I really don't share many documents with others as an AP. However, as a teacher I could see that this would be a great way to share quizzes, tests, worksheets, etc.
One advantage is that you can create and keep presentations in one place on the web that's accessible anytime, from any Internet connected computer.
As I stated earlier a disadvantage is that it appears you are limited in your choices of fonts. Not a big to some but I like my 'Calibri' font, size 12.
