I came across a cool web-based word processor today. It’s called Writely, and for the majority of the Word document I create, this does just fine. Very cool.

Are you using it sigifnicantly or have you just given it a quick spin?
My publisher prefers that I use Word but I would rather use OpenOffice. It has a couple of differences that must be gotten used to but it is generally very good.
I am not using it significantly yet, but I could see myself doing so in the future.
I have Office installed at work and at home, but I have uploaded some of my common Word documents (such as my CV) to Writely, so that I have a repository of documents. I think this could be very handy if I go away to a conference or something and need to write up a document or have one to reference.
