[TAG] Online office suites

[Jimmy O'Regan]

I was going back over the past few days of Slashdot, and found this:
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/01/19/216208 , a link to a
review (http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9007884)
of online office suites.

The interesting part is that Slashdot also mention Docvert[1]
(http://holloway.co.nz/docvert/index.html), an open source, web based
document converter - not an office suite, but at least the "host my
own" crowd have an option to view word processor documents (if they're
willing to run public-facing software that's based on OpenOffice or
Abiword...)

It's interesting that 3 of the 4 support importing and exporting
OpenOffice files (although ajaxPresents from Ajax13 gives nothing but
errors when you try to export openoffice, though their "own" .appt
format *is* openoffice!).
