What's Up, Docs?

I like this! It's kind of like the X drive concept combined with a built-in app. I can see this being really great for someone who travels a lot and needs to be able to write on the go, especially if they have an editor that they need to work with, too. A travel writer, for example. Or for business travel while simultaneously working on projects back home with a team. Or group work in school, especially if you are doing school long-distance. I assume it has all the same kind of features for editing and sharing that MS Word does, too, with different soloured squiggles and strikethroughs and so on? Fantastic. (Though I did find the limited font choices a little pitiful, given the computing power Google possesses.)

For me, though, there is one thing that just makes me nervous, because I'm paranoid like that. You are entrusting your document and the saving of it to someone else and their servers. Not to say nothing ever happens to, say, a diskette or a USB key, which are other options for portable files, or to other email servers you might save it in as an attachment, but it still would make me nervous if it were important, so I'd likely be saving to two places, just to be on the safe side.
